google.co.jp vs. yahoo.co.jp

Here I tried to answer to the question "why I think the Google search surpasses the Yahoo search". Would really appreciate your comments.

It is very interesting topic to see whether Google or Yahoo Japan is the most favorite search engine. I have found out the ranking from Nielsen online report 2009 in term of search engine in Japan:

(Use google for translation :))
I have known that there are 3.5 billion searches during the month for Yahoo and only 2.6 billion for Google. It seems that Yahoo is still the leader in search engine in Japan

hehehe, I think I should ask professor to accuse me. Unfortunately, I couldn't understand the message from your link (
Anyway I tried to find some additional materials and this is a link to the article talking about the reasons of Google' "failure". However, the authors delicately didn't mention whose search engine better, yet they "blamed" Japanese customers in patriotism.
PS. Only 2.6 bill. )))
