The feature, called Smart Tags, "...allows Microsoft's Internet Explorer
Web browser -- included in Windows XP -- to turn any word on any Web
site into a link to Microsoft's own Web sites and services, or to any
other sites Microsoft favors."
"...Microsoft officials stressed that the feature may still undergo
modifications to make it more palatable."
"...[O]ther companies, besides itself, will be able to create and
distribute add-ons for the browser that will launch their own Smart Tags
all over the Web, directing users to their sites."
(I was wondering what Web advertisers were going to do next....)
