Religion is spilling out of the confines of churches, mosques and temples into the web, according to a new study. Penn State University (PSU) researchers examined how people use search engines to locate religious information online. They analysed more than 5.5 million searches collected from three web search engines between 1997 and 2005 to investigate attributes of such religious searching. There was a general increase in religious searching over time, which may be due to the advancement in technology, increased availability of religious content online and a change in the web population.
