More and more searchers are jumping Google and heading over to MSN and Yahoo for their Internet searches.

“Why” this is happening varies on whom you ask. Some will say that Google is populated with spam results for competitive terms, while others say their static results never serve up anything new.

But let’s not forget that both Yahoo and MSN have been improving their search and spidering capabilities considerably.

Another tidbit: with Windows Vista launching sometime in 2006, Microsoft will certainly attempt to integrate Internet search more thoroughly into the operating system. That should shake the snow globe up for everyone.
