Well, fancy that. Google may not be completely indomitable in its core market. According to comScore Networks, Google lost share in US search to Microsoft in June, when Google's numbers apparently tends to decline because of the vacations and the summer school break. Total queries hit eight billion, up 26% year-over-year. Google went from 50.7% to 49.5% sequentially; Microsoft went from 10.3% to 13.2%, an uptick attributed to the prize-based Live Search Club Microsoft started in May that's reportedly susceptible to cheating.
