What in the world did we do in 2008? Google Zeitgeist

Posted by Mukund Mohan at 12/10/2008 6:50 AM

Categories: Technology,Interesting,Google

2008 Google search trends and Zeitgeist is here. Unlike what people on Yahoo searched for in 2008 (that's Britney Spears BTW), Google searchers seemed more obsessed with and American Idol.

No points for guessing the categories that made the top 3:
1. Politics in US - Obama, Sarah Palin, Fox news etc.
2. Economic crisis
3. Beijing Olympics.
