    Odd result for outlook in google

    So I typed outlook into google today and the first result I normally go to was this o www.outlook.com i

    Now when I went to it it had the microsoft verify thing int he top left address bar, but why is it like that is it a fake link or something?

    No, it is not a fake, that is Microsoft migrated all hotmail accounts to outlook.

    I see what you mean now. My guess is a bug that'll get fixed before the day is out.

    Ah I see what you mean. Google has crawler bots that crawls for website and if something changes on the website, it will update the entry.

    From what I see either it is a bug on google server side or someone at Microsoft alter the html page for example <title>o outlook.com i</title>. This should be resolve after a while at least 24 hours to 48 hours.
