“Courtesy of Neilsen data and info-graphics at the BBC, a new
visualisation has been created to explain the interactivity of
users and the sites they visit in the main browsing areas of the
world, including the US, Australia, Brazil and a half-dozen
European countries.

“Without doubt, Google takes the major share of all unique users
with nearly 350 million (7.4%) with Bing trailing behind at 270
million (5.7%) unique users. Yahoo! reaches nearly 5% of the share
of the entire top 100 sites and other search engines and portals
(the two are often combined nowadays) follow behind. Search is the
most used tool on the web according to these Neilsen
statistics.”
