MySpace Dominates Top Search Terms

You know, maybe Google's too ambitious with this index-the-world's-information thing. Judging from the most popular searches, they really only need to focus on boobs, pop culture and cute stuff.

It's still quite astounding to me that so many people haven't grasped this URL bar thing. My stepson does the same, typing in whatever it is into Google – even if he knows the Web address. He thinks it's faster somehow.

Of course, it does eliminate the need to know how to spell something exactly.

But I still just don't get searching for Google.com, or MySpace.com.

More signs of the times: No. 23 was "gas boycott," which is followed by "scooter mileage" (27), and by "Kelly Blue Book" (252) as SUV owners rush to trade-in.

Jenna Jameson (29) still has yet to be unseated, but Jessica Alba (37) is working on it as Britney and Pamela slip on down the search road (59 and 61). Poor Christina Aguilera may have to do something drastic (I don't know, like pose for Playboy finally) if she wants to get out of 295th place.

More people are searching for Wicked Weasel than for her.

At least they've got some good taste in music and animals. Tenacious D (261) and Panic at the Disco (269) are a couple of nice ones to see on the public's mind. And dogs, of course, are way better than cats – both "dogs" (21) and "dog" (54) were search for way more than stupid ol' cats (174).

But perhaps the funniest juxtaposition is number 296 "prom hairstyles" coming right before number 297 "herpes."

Daddies, keep a close eye on your daughters. The wolves they be a-circlin', sniffin' around your door.
