Does anyone know the proportion of people within the UK who use the .com versus .co.uk search engines? Stats for Google, Yahoo and MSN would be great.
Many thanks

I wouldn't put much stock in Media Metrix ratings. They use such a small sample size, it stretches the imagination to call it scientific.

Thanks Brett,

Could you point us at some better stats for the habits of UK surfers?
