Is Bing taking the market share from google?

The story posted in cnnmoney.com reads like this :  "Microsoft stages a big comeback." The story talks about new offerings from Microsoft like windows 7, cloud computing and Bing - their new semantic search engine.  Microsoft, who is viewed as a laggard behing google in the search/advertising business seems to be getting more market share from its rival. Its share of online business has grown to 9% (some sources even say it is 10%)after it released Bing.com . The 9% takes msn also into account. If they manage to make it to 15%-20% range then it will transalte into billions of dollars.
