Google (GOOG), for the first time in its history was responsible for over 60% of searches conducted in the U.S., according to Bill Tancer of Hitwise.
Of the leaders in search, Microsoft (MSFT) is the only one to lose search share. Interesting when they have insisted that they will grab a bigger portion of the search market with the promise of throwing $300 million at the issue.
Google finished with 60.2 percent, Yahoo (YHOO) Search came in second with 22.5 percent in July, and MSN Search came in their with only 11.8 percent. Altogether the big three accounted for 94.5 percent of all searches.
