Microsoft Launches Windows Live Academic

Windows Live Academic (beta) is produced by Microsoff to compete with Google Scholar (someday). At the moment, law is not covered by Academic search.

From the home page:

Academic search enables you to search for peer reviewed journal articles contained in journal publisher portals and on the web in locations like citeseer.

Academic search works with libraries and institutions to search and provide access to subscription content for their members. Access restricted resources include subscription services or premium peer-reviewed journals. You may be able to access restricted content through your library or institution.
