go to Google Zetigest (Or Something like that.)

Has anyone check this 'fact' ? I'm pretty sure Google is no longer fully blocked. That happened back in 2002, and I believe since then Google has actually agreed to either self censor or disable certain parts of their search engine in order to maintain a presence there. Try google.cn

Yes, this is old news to all tech geeks. There was a whole outrage dealio when the public learned of google's intentions to censor search results.

20% of the world's population.

They've recently said that blocking results was a mistake. At least they didn't take the yahoo route, and surrender information about dissidents to the Chinese government. Although both company's compromises there are pretty bad.

Oh, I see, they're supposed to say no and lose out on the traffic/income generated by a billion and a half people...

No, they're supposed to respect their corporate mantra (Don't be evil), and understand that selling out their values might have negative ramifications in the long run.

Google for president? Hmm... you may be on to something.

But we can be sure Google exists.

ok so I found the best site to find the most searced words for the week (from Google at least). Here is last weeks:

Lies.

I single handedly put "hentai" to number 1.

Facts are facts, isn't that what we pursuit for all our lives?

Dear estebanissexy,

If you notice under your comment box there are two radio buttons, of which 1 denotes "Text" and another "Html", you are more than welcome to choose Format comments as "Html" if you wanted to use quote.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Best regards,

Haoest

I like the fact that all my posts in which i quote someone are unique

Nice!
I've always wondered, can you see/edit wispers?

Even if they're to/from other people?

Posted By: Haoest

I think that's how Legat found out about your info, Trance, when you whispered me your A/S/L.

Or it could be when I typed it into the registration form.

They don't; I'm a dirty liar with nothing to live for, except more lies.

Yes, but what that another lie?

Fools! it's obviously Jesus! Look it up!

So it seems that the trends list off of the Zeitgeist 100 list is the fastest-rising terms. Therefore, it will be those terms that have previously been not as popular, that are suddenly more popular.

If 5000 people search a term that has been searched a million times, it probably won't get on the list. But if 50 people search a term that's only been searched 10 times so far...proportionally that's way more, so it'll be higher on the list.

That's why all the "obvious" ones aren't there...they've been popular for longer.

Google already controls the president and Nimro Klims. Google is just slightly less powerful than God.

God is coming out with his own search engine, it will be called "Just Ask Jesus".

Already Android is on par with Moses.

Google is coming out with an Operating System. It will then be more powerful than god.

So it won't be as powerful as God?

God doesn't need to be overclocked, he makes time.

I too asked what is the most googled word and I too ended up here ......... thanks for the laugh people !!!!

Well, see the Beta Version is like Judaism, you have to slaughter a sacrificial lamb first. When the real Just Ask Jesus comes out though, you can ask Him real questions.

Really interesting thread. I think it would be the word "free download"
