"Google get bulk of world search", A live example is showing here - - mE..., who always search information from google's search engine. It is really pOwErFul, fast-response and useful internet tool especially for student doing coursework/research work (note: no copycat info, just use it as reference or sometimes to get some idea out of something...). However, as agreed with my B.M.T Lecturer, thousand of journals and articles can pop out just play a simple mouse click with the engine search; the question is: Is that piece of hard work come from orginator? How about the language used? When we found some good point to grab, always a problem: no reference showed at the page? How truth the publisher of the page is so call originator?

NEW YORK: Around the world, Internet users are conducting about 1.4 million searches every minute - most of them through Google Inc, a new comScore study estimates. Yet Baidu.com Inc is strong enough in China and NHN Corp in South Korea to crack the global top five in comScore Inc's inaugural report on worldwide search patterns. The report, based on August traffic patterns, was scheduled for release Wednesday. In the past, comScore reported search numbers for only a handful of countries. The numbers from comScore and rival Nielsen/ NetRatings are closely watched by industry analysts, even as the measuring firms use online recruitment techniques dismissed by many traditional pollsters. According to comScore's qSearch 2.0 service, more than 37 billion searches worldwide went through Google in August. That's about 60% of all searches, higher than Google's 50% in the United States. Yahoo Inc was second worldwide with 8.5 billion, followed by Baidu at 3.3 billion, Microsoft Corp at 2.2 billion and NHN at 2 billion. In China, one of the few countries where Google isn't dominant, Baidu shows how one regional player "can break into the top five globally by their complete control of a very, very large market," said Bob Ivins, comScore's executive vice-president. Baidu's numbers would likely keep increasing, he said, with China's online population. ComScore estimates that about 750 million people worldwide used Internet search in August, each person averaging about 80 searches. Europe and Latin America tend to have more searches conducted per person. Ivins said Internet penetration in those markets grew as search technology was already developed, unlike in the United States where human-powered directories were initially strong. - AP
