I completely agree - Google (and Apple) must really irk Microsoft, given that 10 years ago they were the dominant player in the market.
Thank you, Yoni!

You did your homework on this one! Amazing facts and really cool graphics too. I'm floored by the number of employees. If you would have asked me, I would have answered around 800...shows how much I know. A ten-fold increase in revenue in seven years? WOW!
I bet the folks at BING are jealous as heck, especially since their company which only a year or two ago was predicted to take over the world seems to be fizzling. I have yet to meet anybody who is looking for something online who says, "I think I'll BING it!"
Thanks for an awesome post!
