October search engine numbers: Google, Bing up; Yahoo, Ask, AOL down

Analytics company ComScore has released its October search engine market share numbers and… instead of making you fire up your search-site of choice and finding the information yourself, I thought I would just put it right there for you. October’s search numbers are as follows: Google 66.3%, up from 66.1% in September; Bing 11.5%, up from 11.2% in September; Yahoo 16.5%, down from 16.7% the month prior; Ask.com 3.6% down 0.1% from the previous month; and AOL 2.1%, down from 2.3%. I'm curious to see how/if the recent release of Windows Phone will help Bing’s search numbers. We’ll find out next month.

Yahoo Messenger 2.0 for iPhone hits App store, brings video calling over 3F

While a new update to the Yahoo Messenger app on the iPhone would be eventful in and of itself, the latest version brings a very special gift — video calling over 3G, and not just phone to phone, but phone to computer or vice versa. Unfortunately thr video calling seems to be buggy. In addition to video calls, the newly updated Yahoo Messenger brings free voice calls to other Yahoo Messenger
friends, supports background multitasking, and more. Let us know if you're feeling the new update, though we'll be waiting for real FaceTime calling over 3G.
