Baidu has ~63%, Google has ~31%. Q4 2009 was Google's best Q in China ever. While I admit that 31% is not the market share Google usually enjoys, it certainly is not horrible. Most companies would love to have 1/3 of a market as big and growing as China. Oh, and I prefer Google over Baidu when I'm in China (which is frequently). Their results are better, and I can get some in English. :) -- TTFN, patrick > Le 13/01/2010 06:24, Ken Chase a écrit : >> I must say I'll have to take a step back from my previous position/postings >> having read this article. >> >> I just can't figure out their /ANGLE/. :)</cynic> >> >> http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-approach-to-china.html >> >> Well played, google? >> >> /kc >> >
