It should come as no surprise that sex is among the most “googled” keyword. But can you guess who were the world’s top searchers?

Internet users in Egypt, India and Turkey are the world’s most frequent searchers for Web sites using the keyword “sex”.

Canada likes to google “Marijuana”, Mexico “Britney Spears” and “Hangover” is tops in Ireland.

Anything I am thinking about or don’t know enough about. Mainly about business, economics, news, religion, technical documentation, programming languages, medical, friends and acquaintances. Not so much for entertainment. I don’t think I have ever searched for “sex”.

Everything. I do alot of prospecting with Google. So I do about 60 searches a day or more. Good ways to find companies to solicit.

Right this moment, I’m about to google metric conversions, since the US defies the rest of the global scientific community with mph, inches, feet, yards, etc. Also, I Google currencies to plan a vacation outta the Bush empire based on his Tehran warning.
