Things are heating up between Google and Microsoft with the introduction of Bing, Microsoft’s new search engine. The first assault, the introduction of Google Chrome, Google’s first Internet browser, attempting to cut into Microsoft’s Internet Explorer market. Microsoft has maintained a stronghold on Internet browser market for many years, it is estimated that 75% of Internet users browse the web with some version of Internet Explorer. Microsoft counters with Bing, successfully competing with Google’s search engine and surpassing Yahoo, the second leading search engine, within the first month of it’s public introduction. Now we hear that Yahoo has agreed to join forces with Microsoft to further weaken the search engine giant, Google, on the battle field. Google retaliates by announcing their newest weapon, Google Chrome OS, an open source operating system, competing with Microsoft’s monster Windows OS.
