msncom

MSN.com is a web portal and homepage operated by Microsoft as part of the MSN network. It serves as a general gateway to online content, offering news, weather, sports, finance, entertainment, lifestyle, and search features. The site combines editorial content from Microsoft News with material from a network of licensed publishers and other partners, and uses Bing technology to deliver search results. The portal also provides personalized feeds, video content, and links to various Microsoft services.

MSN originated in 1995 as The Microsoft Network, a subscription-based online service and portal. In the late 1990s the project was redesigned as a free web portal and the msn.com domain became the central hub for Microsoft’s online presence. Over the years MSN evolved into a content-centric portal with regional editions and mobile apps, expanding beyond its original dial-up service. Today MSN is presented as a cross-platform portal with content tailored to regional markets and user interests, and it remains integrated with Microsoft’s search ecosystem powered by Bing. It is widely accessed through desktop web browsers and mobile devices, and it often serves as a configurable homepage for Windows users or a landing point for Microsoft’s online services.
