This week Yahoo announced that they will be improving their search engine by making the search cleaner with better filters. Search share hasn’t changed much recently with the top 5 in the US as follows:
| July 2011 | August 2011 | Difference | |
| Google Sites | 65.1% | 64.8% | -0.3% |
| Yahoo Sites | 16.1% | 16.3% | 0.2% |
| Microsoft Sites | 14.4% | 14.7% | 0.3% |
| Ask Network | 2.9% | 3.0% | 0.1% |
| AOL | 1.5% | 1.3% | -0.2% |
Talk of a sale of some or all of Yahoo still continues to rumble on.
