Sex, Nazi, burrito and Viagra: Who Googles what?
Article

Internet users in Egypt, India and Turkey are the world's most frequent searchers for Web sites using the keyword "sex" on Google search engines, according to statistics provided by Google Inc.

Germany, Mexico and Austria were world's top three searchers of the word "Hitler" while "Nazi" scored the most hits in Chile, Australia and the United Kingdom, data from 2004 to the present retrievable on the "Google Trends" Web site showed.

Chile also came in first place searching for the word "gay," followed by Mexico and Colombia.

The top searchers for other keywords were as follows (in order from first to third place):

"Jihad" - Morocco, Indonesia, Pakistan

"Terrorism" - Pakistan, Philippines, Australia

"Hangover" - Ireland, United Kingdom, United States

"Burrito" - United States, Argentina, Canada

"Iraq" - United States, Australia, Canada

"Taliban" - Pakistan, Australia, Canada

"Tom Cruise" - Canada, United States, Australia

"Britney Spears" - Mexico, Venezuela, Canada

"Homosexual" - Philippines, Chile, Venezuela

"Love" - Philippines, Australia, United States

"Botox" - Australia, United States, United Kingdom

"Viagra" - Italy, United Kingdom, Germany

"David Beckham" - Venezuela, United Kingdom, Mexico

"Kate Moss" - Ireland, United Kingdom, Sweden

"Dolly Buster" - Czech Republic, Austria, Slovakia

"Car bomb" - Australia, United States, Canada

"Marijuana" - Canada, United States, Australia

"IAEA" - Austria, Pakistan, Iran



How sad is America?
We own: "Hangover", "Burrito", "Botox", "Iraq", "Tom Cruise", "Love", "Car bomb" and "Marijuana".

So, we're high with the munchies, drunk and looking for love, obsessed with our face and Tom Cruise, while avoiding car bombs in Iraq.

Go USA.

2. Mebbe it's more than meets the eye and casual analysis
is insufficient. How 'bout the possibility that we know all about all the other stuff--since I normally google things I'm unfamiliar with, rather than stuff I am thoroughly knowledgeable about--and these items represent areas of less familiarity?

It's more fun than simply agreeing, right?
