Pew Internet & American Life Project says using a search engine is now the number 2 Web activity, with 41 percent of the Web population in the United States using search engines.

According to Nielsen/Netratings Google has a 46 percent market share in search and Yahoo is second with 23 percent.

The number one Web activity is sending e-mail, and the number 3 Web activity is reading news.

Welcome to Geek/Talk, Jess.

Actually that might seem obvious, but there was a change that moved search into number two ahead of news which had been number two. News is now number 3. That was the significance of this.

Jess, it is nice to have you as a member. I hope you will enjoy being a member. There are a lot of nice people here.
