I wondered as much as anyone if Bing would make a dent in Google.
At least at first, it looks like it has.
The news is full of it.....
Google search share drops as Bing gains momentum
Bing's share of the search market grew another percentage point in July, indicating that some of those initial users may be sticking around for the long haul. Google, on the other hand, fell by nearly the same amount, and now faces the combined forces of Microsoft and Yahoo in the race for search market share.

Bing gains 1% US share in July, Google loses: StatCounter
In a press release issued today, web statistics firm StatCounter showed an increase in US search market share from 8.23% in June to 9.41% in July. Google was down in the US from 78.48% in June to 77.54% in July. Global figures show Google still dominating, with 89.23% share in July (down from 89.80% in June).

Chitika: Bing outperforms Google?
It may be too early to make a definitive statement at this point, but new research from search advertising network Chitika indicates that Bing's search platform may be outperforming Google's. According to the research, consumers who land on sites as the result of organic listings on Bing's engine are 55% more likely to click on an advertisement than those who arrive on-site from Google's engine.

Google's recent algorithm changes (which btw cut my traffic in half...Thanks Google!) has had effects on searchers.
I have heard "Whats wrong with Google?" and "Why cant I find anything on Google anymore?" more than a few times.
I think Google's change was VERY ill timed.
Death knell for Google?
Hardly.
As long as "I Googled it" is still a phrase in the English language, Google is number one.
But you know....AOL was number one several years ago.....
