Windows Live Search Center (also previously referred to as Windows Live Search, codenamed Casino or OneView) was a proposed desktop search program from Microsoft's Windows Live division. Based on a Windows Desktop Search platform in Windows XP and the Windows Search (Instant Search) platform in Windows Vista, it was planned to provide unified local and remote indexed search from a unified interface. Early screenshots of the program seen that it featured the new "flair" interface design seen in other Windows Live client applications such as Windows Live Messenger and Windows Live Mail.
Windows Live Search Center could search web services which uses OpenSearch specification to make available the search results as a web feed. It could aggregate searches from various indexes including the WDS index, Windows RSS Platform common feed store, Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft SharePoint indexes among others. However, in December 2006, it has been reported that Windows Live Search Center will be rebranded as Windows Search 4. It will not be part of Microsoft's Windows Live services, rather be merged with the desktop search platform in Windows and be released as the successor to it.

The good red fires were burning bright in every ‘longshore home;
The windows sparkled clear, and the chimneys volleyed out;
And I vow we sniffed the victuals as the vessel went about.”

The rest I look upon as a mere crowd, lively or sad, loyal or corrupt, from whom there is nothing to be expected but fleeting emotions, either pleasant or unpleasant, which leave no trace behind them.”
—Sarah Bernhardt (1844–1923)
“You that do search for every purling spring
Which from the ribs of old Parnassus flows,
And every flower, not sweet perhaps, which grows
Near thereabouts into your poesy wring;
You that do dictionary’s method bring
Into your rhymes, running in rattling rows;”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
