BP, World Cup, Lady Gaga Top Yahoo’s 2010 Year-end Search Results
Posted in: iPhone, Miscellaneous Tech, Today's Chili, Yahoo
Yahoo today issued its annual year in review, releasing a list of its top search terms. In the US, search was, perhaps unsurprisingly, dominated by the “BP Oil Spill,” which pumped pollution into the Gulf of Mexico from April to September.
Cheerier news at the number two spot, with “World Cup.” As per usual, the next several spots were dominated by celebrities–“Miley Cyrus,” “Kim Kardashian,” and “Lady Gaga” took the third, fourth, and fifth spots (“Megan,” “Justin Bieber,” and “Britney Spears” all made it into the top 10, as well).
The iPhone rounded out the top six.
The “NFL” dominated things over on the mobile side, with “Lady Gaga,” “Rihanna,” “Sandra Bullock,” and the “NBA” rounded up the top five.
Yahoo also issued a list of top searches in other countries. Quickly: Argentina “Bicentenario,” Brazil “Adriano,” Canada “Vancouver Olympics,” France “Secret Story”, Germany “Routenplaner,” Hong Kong “Manila Hostage Incident,” India “IPL 3,” Italy “Facebook,” Korea “World Cup,” Mexico “Caso Paulette,” Phillippines “NBA,” Spain “Big Brother 12,” Taiwan “Earthquake,” United Kingdom “Lottery.”
