Either Microsoft is getting very creative with their social network marketing or Steve Balmer is losing his mind.

This all depend on whether you believe the story about him firing a employee because he did not get excited about Bing! or not.  The video below is recently making headline on the web as an "former employee" of Microsoft explains how Steve fired him for not getting excited about Bing.

The fact is that whether it is true of not, everybody will be watching and sharing this video.

That is probably the best viral marketing available on the net nowadays.  Especially if you are in the business of trying to crack into the Google Search domain and make name for yourself.  How many people will go to www.bing.com after watching the video?

Like I said, it is either a brilliant way to market yourself - or - Steve has gone crazy.
