[ed. In my travels I came across this "what's hot" page which gives a run down of the most popular searches online. There are plenty of these sort of things and this is just one example. I thought it was quite interesting and indicitive that a) Britney Spears came in third while b) "fiscal cliff" and lunar eclipse came in at 14th and 19th respectively and c) that there was none of the, perhaps, shadier aspects of the internet such as porn (never mind the even still shadier aspects which are supposed to be everywhere). Which leads me to conclude that pages like this are either a) sanitised, b) completely made up (both a and b would render the whole idea obsolete) or that c) that porn, in all its varieties, is nowhere near as popular as the hysteria would have you believe. What do you think?]
