Nielsen Online released some interesting web statistics for 2007 in the UK last week, which we found via Mess.be.  Google Search was the most popular website in the UK in 2007, averaging 25.1 million British visitors each month, with MSN/WL Messenger in second place with 14.7 million monthly visitors, and eBay third, with 14.5 million.
