Does this mean that Bing is now being used by more search sites, or does this mean that people are choosing to use Bing powered sites in preference...?

Ah yes, but that only matters if we are considering the 'stupid users', the ones that don't care what they use. Surely it's only the people who switch from say Google to Bing or Bing to Google that matter?

If the people don't notice it has changed then it doesn't matter because they weren't using their original search engine on purpose.

The quality of Google's search results has plummeted in the last 6 months. The amount of search-engine spam in Google's results is terrible at the moment. I don't know if Bing is necessarily any better, but I'm certainly no-longer assuming that Google is the best search engine out there these days.
