It's official...

Today, Dave sent me a link to the google trends site. After playing around with some interesting words, a thought crossed my mind; it seems like facebook is getting pretty popular lately, so I thought I'd do a little search. Knowing how much I hate myspace, I decided to match up these former competitors to see how it's going:



Facebook takes the lead and is unstoppable! Google searches containing "facebook" are increasing a manner that's exponential! It seemed like myspace is too weak to be a challenge, so I really wanted to pit facebook against some heavy hitters. I figured "porn" and "sex" were two that would fare well.


As you can see above, in the 4th quarter of 2007 facebook officially became more popular than porn; though, the real victory was in Q2 2008 when facebook became more popular than sex itself.

Graphs don't lie. ;)
