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. ;)

I'm guessing the win is based sheerly on availability.
I think it's mainly the efforts of the Turkish
Why at the end of every year does 'sex' increase abruptly? Do people search sex closer to christmas for some reason?
If you think this is bad, look up "anal fisting" on google trends.
