  Chicktionary helps boost Live Search's market share
Time: 00:12 EST/05:12 GMT | News Source: Ars Technica | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Windows Live Search's luck is changing, sort of. According to numbers released by web metrics firms comScore and Compete, Windows Live Search saw its search market share rise significantly in June, but the numbers could be deceiving.

comScore reports that Microsoft's Live Search is up 3 percent from May to 13 percent market share in June. Compete's numbers show an even larger change placing Live Search at 13.2 percent market share — a 4.8 percent gain from May. What is it that Microsoft has done differently to create a new influx of users? Better search speeds? Improved user interface? No, none of those; instead, the company's release of a game called "Chicktionary" has been reeling in fresh customers according to both comScore and Compete.
