What we searching for online

This has been a big year for online search. The number of people using search engines on an average day jumped from roughly 38 million in June 2004 to about 59 million in September 2005 – an increase of about 55%, according to a study just released from Dogpile.com - the metasearch engine that searches Google, Yahoo, MSN and AskJeeves
Tracking search queries is becoming the online equivalent on Nielsen data and as 2005 comes to a close, Dogpile.com says the year’s most popular search term was “music lyrics,” as no single comprehensive site catalogs lyrics and consumers must rely heavily on search to get them there
Paris Hilton topped the most-searched celebrity list and came in #2 overall.
Here’s something that I found most fascinating from the study: Did you know only 1.1% of search results from the top four search engines overlap. Try it yourself by clicking here.
