Googles most popular searches for 2008 released

It was a year of surprising (and at times, it seemed, unending) twists and turns. Even as we endured the long roller coaster rides for the campaign season and economy, we found time to ponder some age-old questions and express our curiosity.

no surprises there.
"how to hack" gave me a giggle.
still gutting to remember heath's gone.

LOL..yeah the how to hack is pretty hilarious. I can picture people who are typing that in...

Who is Obama....lol

Just in case you've been sitting on Pluto, in a cave, blindfolded with your ears plugged....

Well, it looks to me like all of my porn look ups must have been overlooked, cause there are none of those in the list. Unless they make their own list.

Seriously, nothing really surprising. I think I have typed in a large percentage of those as well.

The farewell stack is pretty sobering. Bernie Mac and Heath Ledger. Two of the good ones gone.

And we still dont know who Obama is...

I"m pretty sure they delete all the dirty links because 2 girls 1 cup isn't on there.

Neither is anything associate with the words "donkey show"

How to run? Trust me ... if you have to google this.... you're not qualified and should stick to walking.

Maybe how to run is referring to how to run for office or something of that nature, or how to properly jog or run for exercise...weird though.

well i'll own up to the "how to write" search.
didn't learn anything though.

Yeah maybe... but all I could think of were kids who don't get any physical exercise except to run to the store to get a new video game

Maybe it was a kid in a wheelchair?


"lipstick pig" confused me.... I had to google it to see why it was popular - what I found was very different to what I was expecting. lol

I've seen a couple articles on this and they pointed out that all the "mature" searches were removed before the list was compiled.

Great lists, lord knows I've contributed to a few of them

Did you know him?

If you didn't why waste your precious sorrow on a spoiled drug addict? I assure celebrities do not grieve when 'normal' people die.

The mature searches would be the hilarious ones, they should bring it back with those.

Another brainwashing stuff released. No one searches on this way, following these terms (What is love, what is, etc, etc...). It's another manipulation, nothing more. No Iraq, no Afghanistan, no Bush, no war, no UFO related searches. Sure.

It's another, the others looked this, so there is 75% that you're going to search the same. Uh-huh. Nice try.
