Free Web Search Share, October 2011

Short honk: Navigate to “Google Grabs Search Share from Microsoft.”
Here’s the quote which I assume directly supports Google’s assertion that it is not a monopoly:
The report with comScore’s October 2011 Explicit Core Search results show that in the United States, Google has moved up from 65.3 percent market share in September to 65.6 percent in October. At the same time, Yahoo sites dipped from 15.5 percent to 15.2 percent and Microsoft sites improved slightly from 14.7 percent to 14.8 percent. When you combine the two, Microsoft-driven searches fell from 30.2 percent to 30.0 percent.
Microsoft, to its credit, continues to displace Google in search. Persistent outfit.
