The most wanted list from Google is out today. Google Zeitgeist (having hard time to pronounce it), listing what’s popular, trend, top query or top search for the period of 2008. So here they are…
Fastest Rising (Global)
- sarah palin
- beijing 2008
- facebook login
- tuenti
- heath ledger
- obama
- nasza klasa
- wer kennt wen
- euro 2008
- jonas brothers
I know you’re puzzled with some of the phrases here, which you never came across before, so Google it la.
Apart from global list, there are also Google Zeitgeist grouped regionally. As usual, I took a peak of what’s hot in my country, Malaysia.
Malaysia – Generally, Malaysians tend to search on political related news and updates, so Google Zeitgeist is grouped by search of that criteria, mostly. Some that caught my attention:
Anwar Ibrahim topping the local celebrities list, which I believe you all can guess why. Apparently, Chua Soi Lek has got more queries than our past prime minister, Dr Mahathir.
Perodua Nautica – Given the small numbers of this vehicle on the roads, it is quite surprising to see it topping the list. Perhaps people rarely see this car and are curious how it does look like, or people are anticipating Nautica will be another hit from Perodua when it is proven to be otherwise.
Terengganu is the top local tourist destinations in Malaysia. Yeah, I’m blogging from there, although the real purpose is not for leisure.
