| 796454 | 2009-07-30 05:05:00 | Guess it was coming - Microsoft's Bing Search is to power up/handle Yahoo's search engine, implementing a revenue and advertising scheme. Details at Search Engine Land (searchengineland.com)... | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 796455 | 2009-07-30 05:07:00 | It's not April 1st? No, no it's not. Well, what percentage of the market would Bing have now? 25 or 30%? Just checked on Yahoo's site, and it's all legit. Apparently MS would have around 28% of the search engine market now...still pretty pathetic since they've cheated to get most of it... :p |

| 796456 | 2009-07-30 05:11:00 | Actually never thought of April's fool day; Maybe Yahoo would wish for that... | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 796457 | 2009-07-30 07:57:00 | I thought Bing had about 7% and Yahoo 30% and Google the rest. I still think they will struggle to catch Google up. Unless they do a deal with Firefox. I think that idea of doing a deal with Firefox is worth billions of dollars, now my consultancy fee should be about 10% of that..... How much is a trip to California ? Can I stay with you SurferJoe ? |

| 796459 | 2009-07-31 08:29:00 | If M$ gets tied up with Firefox, and you claim to be the instigator, you will need to be doing a lot of traveling - day and night ;) Yes he won't be safe anywhere. 0+0 still equals 0 so while they may have increased their share of the search engine (decision) market they still don't have a Google beater. |

| 796460 | 2009-07-31 09:50:00 | Oh no - on the contrary, a search on Bling will reveal that it is the best search engine ever. (And Tui agrees.) Yahoo and M$ - - - oh how they deserve each other. An evil thought indeed - revenge is sweet. |
