Microsoft has finally managed to surpass Yahoo's US search engine market share



From The Inquirer:
According to figures released by Comscore, Microsoft's Bing search engine has overtaken Yahoo with 15.1 per cent of the US web search market. The manoeuvre came as Yahoo experienced a 0.6 per cent drop in market share between November 2011 and December 2011.

Microsoft has put considerable research and marketing behind Bing to compete with internet search leader Google, yet has been unable to make a significant dent in Google's market share. Microsoft also signed a deal with Yahoo that saw Bing powering the web portal's search results.
