More from Pew. I find it very hard to believe that “Americans conducted 3.9 million searches in June.” I think *I* conducted that many in June. I’m checking into it.

If it’s just a typo for a “billion,” then the number works pretty well. The rough numbers are that Google gets a 100M unique users a day, 40% of which are in the US, some of whom use it more than once, and Google’s market share is around 60%. Very believable.
Yup, that’s it.
That number is so far off it’s unbelievable; *ebay alone* gets 100M searches/day on its site. Pew has few credentials to be measuring search, and comscore’s method of tracking misses whole swaths of search activity.
The number is closer to 400-500M IMO
