Wikipedia Dominates Search Engines

When people use Google or Yahoo Search, they often find that among the top few results, there is usually a Wikipedia entry, and this trend seems to be increasing. Jure Cuhalev conducted a study where he randomly searched for 1,000 terms and found that 81% of the time, a Wikipedia page would appear in the top ten results of a Google search, 77% for Yahoo, and only 38% for MSN.
