RE: Search Engine habits?

["Dan Goldstein" <DGoldstein -at- riverainmedical -dot- com>]

By "hits," I think you're referring to search results: "I Googled
'TECHWR-L' and got one million hits.'"

I'm referring to the number of people who click a search result to view
the actual Web site: "By the end of 1994, Yahoo had already received one
million hits."
