Search queries in 1997

The very cool blog Tasty Research looked up an old report (as in, nearly a decade old) research on search queries. Great stuff. We always assume that people are getting increasingly sophisticated in their use of the Web. Not too much, really. The software is certainly getting better at delivering what people are looking for. And the number of searches for the Nintendo Wii has certainly shot up. But things haven't changed too much on the consumer side.
