Today, comScore released its April numbers for search engine rankings. The winner?
Of course, it's Google. In fact, it gained market search for the ninth consecutive month. In all, it has a 43.1 share in the U.S. Second is Yahoo! at 28% and the laggard is MSN at 12.9%.
No doubt, we Americans love to search the web. There were 6.6 billion searches for April. And, increasingly, it's a way we find out about new products to buy.
Perhaps the most interesting development is that MySpace.com is now on the search ranking list. It is #6 with 43 million search queries for April. True, that's a small number compared to the search giants. Then again, MySpace's search feature is not prominent on the page.
As I said in a prior post, the big play is for MySpace.com to take a bite of the search market. And, that could be a boon for News Corp.

As a sizeable stock and option investor, I have been
dismayed and wondering why the stock is going up and
down in a 100 point range. Whenever we investors believe it is going up, someone pulls the plug and the stock goes down 20 to 50 points. Whenever we try to recover and respond to that, someone starts bringing it back up 20 to 50 points. When we respond to that, they start a downfall again. Someone is making a killing on this up and down and it is not us
little investors. Is the Mafia controlling the ups and downs? or is it the insiders? Someone is doing a very good job of weeding out the little people. All I know is that the stock will go up and down, but when, I can't determine. Am I crazy?
