Top Googles of 2006
What a person “googles” can tell you a lot about them. Here’s Google’s top googles of 2006 (divided in various categories). Most interesting/sad to me is that “promiscuous” came in as #1 in the “define” category.
Google’s top searches in 2006:
1. Bebo; 2. Myspace; 3. World Cup; 4. Metacafe; 5. Radioblog; 6. Wikipedia; 7. video; 8. Rebelde; 9. Mininova; 10. wiki

Those Google lists tell much about our searches and our thoughts. They might even tell us about our priorities.
Just my two cents…
