Google this week released its annual year-end Zeitgeist list of top searches, pulling together “the most popular and fastest rising queries from the year to capture the joys, sorrows and curiosity that many of us felt–capturing the spirit of 2010.”
Controversial Web video site Chatroulette topped the list of fastest rising search terms for the year, followed by Apple’s industry-shaking iPad, and teenage pop sensation (and Twitter trending favorite) Justin Bieber. Twitter, online gaming site Gamezer, and Facebook also made the top ten, at 8, 9, and 10, respectively.
Bieber topped the fastest rising entertainment list, followed by Shakira, and Eminem. Netflix, YouTube, Grooveshark, and the still unreleased Transformers 3 also made the list.
Apple dominated the top two consumer electronics spots with the iPad and iPhone 4. Also making the top five were the Nokia 5530, HTC Evo 4g, and Nokia n900.
Google has a far more complete list–and some really cool interactive HTML5-based maps, over on the official Zeitgeist page. Check out a video full of zeitgeisty goodness, after the jump.
