] Visits to the top three Web search engines %u2014 which
] virtually dominate their sector %u2014 accounted for 5.5%
] of all Internet visits by U.S. users during the week
] ending May 29, said Hitwise, a California-based company
] that tracks such activity.
]
] During that time, Google garnered 2.7% of all Web visits
] while Yahoo Search and MSN Search received 1.7% and 1.1%
] respectively, Bill Tancer, vice president of research at
] Hitwise, told Reuters.

] Google, which has become so popular that its name is
] synonymous with search, is moving toward an initial
] public offering that is expected to be a blockbuster.
]
] The three leading search providers fall into a
] subcategory Hitwise calls "Search Engines and
] Directories," which covers 1,944 Web search and directory
] sites. The subcategory, which accounted for 13.8% of all
