Huge increase in search engine use in the US

A new survey by Pew reports that search engine use within the United States is at an all-time high.

Nearly 60 million Americans every day were using such programs, which help surfers navigate the Internet, in September this year, according to research published by the Pew Internet and American Life Project.

That represents a 55 percent increase in the roughly 38 million people who were using search engines in June 2004 and equates to 41 percent of the US Internet population.
