Bing Loses More Money as Microsoft Chases Google

,----[ Quote ]
| During Microsoft's fiscal third quarter, which 
| ended March 31, the Online Services Division, 
| or OSD, reported a 12 percent increase in 
| revenue, which rose to US$566 million on the 
| back of higher advertising revenue. That 
| wasn't enough to offset a surge in operating 
| expenses during the period. The division's 
| quarterly loss grew by 73 percent to $713 
| million, compared to a loss of $411 million 
| during the same period last year.

Is Microsoft Bing losing steam?

,----[ Quote ]
| It was more of a flattening out than a
| significant decline, Google actually fell
| even more, and one month does not make a
| trend. That said it's worth noting that
| Microsoft's Bing search engine experienced
| a decrease in market share in the U.S. for
| the first time in four months in March,
| according to new data from Experian
| Hitwise.
