The phase of the Moon varies each day. You posted this question on November 24, 2010. On that day, the Moon was waning gibbous with 89% of the Moon's visible disk illuminated.
The 5th phase of the moon is known as the waning gibbous phase. During this phase, more than half of the moon is illuminated, but the illuminated portion is shrinking each day until it becomes a third-quarter moon.
The phase of the moon that is mostly visible during the day is the waxing gibbous phase. During this phase, the moon is more than half illuminated and is positioned in the sky such that it can be seen in the afternoon and early evening. This visibility occurs because the moon is rising in the east while the sun is setting in the west, allowing both to be seen simultaneously.
You can see the moon during the day, depending on what phase it's in.
