Google once again took the top spot for consumer satisfaction among portals and search engines in the University of Michigan’s quarterly study. Its score of 86 (out of 100) represents a 10 percent jump over 2007.

This came during a period in which Google’s actual products didn’t undergo major changes and could therefore represent the natural momentum of a growing halo effect. Yahoo slipped 3 percent year over year with a score of 77, while MSN had flat growth with a score of 75.
