For the third lucky? Bing, the latest attempt by Microsoft to make a site on the search engines of war, it has tickled the giant Google. In its first month of life, Bing had increased its market share in the United States in April and 7.21% 7.81% in May to its predecessor Live Bing 8.23% in June.

42 tenths of its increase (in relative, with a 5.10% seems more important) coincides with the loss of 24 tenths of Google, which has come to dominate with a 78.72% to 78.48%. Apparently gains and losses seem ridiculous, but over the history of Google is unique in the months it has lost market. Despite the fact optimistic, Yahoo remains the second browser, and uploading (from 10.99 to 11.04), according to the scrutiny of StatCounter. And a shade more to Microsoft, the largest number of searches were conducted in the first week of operation, when it reached nearly 10% of the market.

As we know these figures are encouraging for Microsoft, announced that it will incorporate its search engine more information in real time, beginning with the most prolific twitteros a variety of areas noticeably. According to Sean Sucht, manager of Bing, “at first capture the messages of a few thousand people, elected by the number of followers they have and the number of messages they send.”

Microsoft’s strategy of attacking the weakest side of Google because your search engine does not provide direct information. Hence the success of Twitter in recent events such as the electoral crisis of Iran or some natural disaster. Also, for the same reason, on several occasions it was rumored that Google might be interested in buying Twitter.
