Hands down, Google seems to be winning<br \/>\nthat war with over 65% share of the lucrative US search<br \/>\nmarket, but according to Alexa, Google has been knocked<br \/>\ndown from its #1 spot numerous times last year by Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>The premier social network repeated this feat several<br \/>\ntimes again this year and this must be worrisome for<br \/>\nGoogle, which has long been the top site on the web.<br \/>\nBut even more troublesome is the fact that Facebook<br \/>\nusers spend much more time on-site or logged in, than<br \/>\ndo Google users.

While the search engine marketer<br \/>\nin me is totally ticked at Google&#8217;s recent move to favor<br \/>\ncorporate brands in organic search, I must admit some of<br \/>\nGoogle&#8217;s doodles are true masterpieces.
