Looking at the logs of one of the websites I run, out of all the referrers gained from search engines, Google only has a 60% share (which is why I don't think Google has a monopoly - they're simply most popular because they offer a better service).

Personally, I use Google as my start page and have a very short bookmarks list.

Are 35+% from Microsoft (Windows Live or whatever they call it those days)?

I am asking because, after all, computers come with Windows preinstalled, with IE as the default browser, etc...

For the past seven days:

Google:65%
Yahoo:15%
MSN:8%
Live:4.5%
AskJeeves:4%

To put it into context, popular browsers:

Mozilla5:40%
MSIE7:39%
MSIE6:15%
Opera:2%

OS's:

XP:55%
Vista:25%
Linux:12%
Mac:6%

Below those levels are meaningless shrapnel.
