I couldn't call myself much of a geek if I didn't mention this year's most searched list. This one is a personal favourite because it relates to Google (you gotta appriciate their sense of humor lol).
1. Bebo - Britain's answer to MySpace
2. Myspace - Murdoch's answer to how to make money online
3. World Cup - France's answer to where head butting is acceptable
4. Metacafe - The other YouTube
5. Radioblog - Where bloggers practice extreme annoyance and how to crash Firefox
6. Wikipedia - Where wikiality and truthiness prevail
7. Video - Because searchers don't know how to be more specific
8. Rebelde - What's better than Catholic schoolgirls? Catholic schoolgirls in Spanish, apparently.
9. Mininova - Next year's acronym magnet (DRM, MPAA, RIAA, DOJ)
10. Wiki - Because the downside of Web 2.0 is you have to say things that sound silly.

Interesting results this year I'm definitely one of the people contributing to the video, wikipedia and Mininova searches.
I'm surprised that Myspace got beaten by a British equivalent, I haven't heard of them but catchy name. I also had no idea there was another YouTube, leave it to Google to teach you something new;).
