Try to learn this: Google will not fall until someone comes up with something better....

A year ago we got about 3-5% of our sales from MSN.

In the past 3 months it is over 15%.

While that obviously does not mean the sky is falling, it indicates to me that more people are using MSN Live search. And personally, I usually get more relevant results from MSN Live than from Google or Yahoo.

To some small extent, Google may have shot itself in the foot with Adsense. It created Adsense with the idea that sites would run a few Adwords. But what has happened is that now one of the big problems with doing a search on Google is that sometimes the results are filled with MFA sites.
