1) I tend to use Google; however, I chose Bing once when I searched "A.R. Ammons" and Yahoo twice when I searched "Texas CHIP" and "Team Canada Hockey". I have been trying to use Bing since it came out in order to become familiar with it, but it might be worth going back and playing around with Yahoo again (it used to be my search tool of choice pre-Google).
2) According to Hitwise, the bulk of usage volume went to Google (70.95%), then Yahoo (14.72%), and then Bing in third (9.65%). Based on my experiment above, these numbers don't match my choice, but they do mostly go along with my day-to-day usage.
3) Exploring the search features in Yahoo, I like the SearchScan which is similar to what Google has, but I really thought the search pad was interesting: It's like having a place to take electronic notes that go beyond just search history because you can save them for later use, print them out or even e-mail search notes and links to friends or co-workers.
