But in either case, it shows that many people are willing, and perhaps waiting, to try a Google alternative. So the potential is there. I haven't heard of any secret strategy from Microsoft to take over Google. But I'm sure they'll think of something to give it a shot. Google has great tools, no doubt. But if Microsoft can make something really cool to work with Windows... it is still the most popular OS out there after all. Let's see, this is a subject I'm actually very interested. So if I hear of anything, I'll post it here. Thanks for the comment! Jose Hey Margaret – The newness factor is a valid point, and that might be it.

I haven’t heard of any secret strategy from Microsoft to take over Google. But I’m sure they’ll think of something to give it a shot. Google has great tools, no doubt. But if Microsoft can make something really cool to work with Windows… it is still the most popular OS out there after all.

Let’s see, this is a subject I’m actually very interested. So if I hear of anything, I’ll post it here.

Thanks for the comment!

That was about their launch time and there appeared to be many television ads running. Do you think that Bing has the momentum to maintain these numbers and take over Yahoo? Even a Yahoo/Bing combo would result in 26% share (in theory) - what are they actively doing to eclipse Google? Do you think that this 10% in August is a result of the newness factor for Bing?
