Japan's search share is more than 2X that of Google Japan's. If Comscore does not include Asian data, the numbers are WAY off. Adding in Y! JP alone would change the global share numbers quite a bit as Japan is the second most lucrative search market in the world and by volume #2 or #3.<br /><br />If anyone has good Asian data, I'd love to see it here. jfyi, Y!

If anyone has good Asian data, I’d love to see it here.

ComScore did not include European data last year and this year they did. Google has greater search market share in Europe than Yahoo so including Europe has a big effect. ComScore does not include Asia where Yahoo has a much greater foothold than Europe. So however much weight you give the ComScore ratings, you can't really compare 2005 to 2004 percentages.
