Friday 6:45 PM Thanks to the iPad's dominant share of tablet browsing, iOS ( AAPL) grew its share of total mobile browsing to 62% in May, NetMarketShare estimates. That's more than 3x the 19.7% share estimated for Android ( GOOG), in spite of its solid lead in smartphone shipments. Even if one assumes NetMarketShare's methodology is imperfect, the figures drive home Google's need to improve its tablet position, given its huge iOS search revenue-sharing payments to Apple.

Google paid for MMI using cash in late May, and its ttm P/E is 17 according to Yahoo Finance.

Leaving FB out for obvious reasons, looks like EMC is winning the long term race on that list, thus far:



Interesting how flat the top four have been since the post 2000 crash, while AAPL did nothing but climb from last place to #5.

Same-old, same-old. A shiny new face becomes This Year's Model, and the old line companies (yes, AAPL is an old-line company) lose some of their lustre in comparison.

5 years from now, Google will be Yahoo, Facebook will be Google, and somebody nobody has heard of yet will be the new Facebook.
