This is why I am going gung-hoe in using Googles Newer Webmaster Tools to get my site ranked higher than my competition!

Not really a surprise any more to see the Google share of search.

Google will continue to have a lock on searches because of the quality of their searches and brand recognition, but I do see major opportunity for another player (yahoo, msn, etc.) to take advantage of mobile. Mobile represents a huge chunk of future searches.

Google getting stronger in search and services, I hope they win mobile race too.

@ PS3

Thats the thing, Google as of right now IS better. The reason it is the search engine of choice is because their search algorithms, massive databases and who knows what else make using Google not only a better solution, but a faster and easier one too.

To put it simply, you get better search results using Googles search.

While Yahoo, MSN and Ask were too busy trying to take each other over. But Google does need some competition soon.

Imagine having to sample 10 million internet users to work that out.

Why is Google better? Or is it better? What makes us (me included) automatically load it as our search engine of choice?

If I am honest, it is just habit I guess.

Who was it that made the comment about Yahoo+MSN search vs. Google?
Saying that it was like the 2nd and 3rd finishers in a race tying their legs together and asking for a rematch:P

That comes as no surprise. I wonder if this news will help out their stocks any. MSN and Yahoo, assuming they merge, has a lot of work to do.
