So I'm half an hour late; oops. Here's the exact nature of this contest: Find the shortest link path from Microsoft's homepage (www.microsoft.com) to my page (jaeger.festing.org). To win, you must submit the shortest list of links that I may verify within one week (one hundred and sixty-eight hours) of right now. Any sort of search is valid, as long as it leaves a trail of urls that I can follow. If this contest proves to be too difficult (I haven't actually tried it myself), I will think of something else, or perhaps give some sort of prize to the best entry. Multiple entries are accepted; only the shortest will be considered.

The prize: one kilobyte (1024 bytes) of html to be placed right here, on the news page. No blink, no embed, no images, no java or javascript, but no other restrictions are placed on the content.

The reason I was late? I was playing Civ: Call to Power for Linux and forgot that I was supposed to announce a contest. Oops.
