Yesterday, comScore released its 2007 U.S. Internet Year in Review report and the findings, well, they were not awakening by any means because the leaders in 2007 were clearly marked, very early on in the game.

Search: Search in 2007 increased by 15% to 9.6 billion searches. The search engine rank order, in terms of market share, was of course Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft sites, Time Warner Network and then Ask. Google was on top with a reported 56% market share.

Classifieds: The comScore report also pegs Craigslist as the fastest growing classified site, as it grew by 74% in 2007 to 24.5 million visitors. Online classifieds as a whole, they reported, had a strong 2007, as this vertical grew by 31%.
