Snapshot of Dec 31, 2007

by MaxPower

In the interest of taking a snap shot of popular culture at the end of 2007, here is a selected list of the top searches on Google for the morning of December 31, 2007.

1. Kimkins (A diet plan - New Years resolutions anyone?)
4. First night Boston (those Bostonians are really searching up a storm for their new years eve party)
5. Myspace New Years Comments (new graphics for Myspace - weeeeee!)
12. Auld lang syne (get the lyrics right before it is too late and you are a laughing stock for the first minutes of 2008!)
13. Miley Cyrus Racy Pictures (the Hannah Montana star in a "racy picture" scandal which apparently are two shots of her fooling around with a friend "fake kissing" - just a note to everyone - don't let anyone take your picture ever)
15. NYSE Hours (16% of the searches are from NY, where people are checking out when they can leave today after markets close)
18. New Years Around the World (it is already 2008 somewhere... probably Australia or something)
22. Dick Clark (quick fire up the Dick Clark robot - first time since 2004 - for New Years Rockin Eve)
24. Black Eyed Peas Recipes (wtf?)
33. 2008 Predictions (Watch for R4NT's 2008 predictions early in the new year)
50. Google Earth UFO (Conspiracy yadda yadda Metacafe yadda yadda.... yaaawwwwn)
55. Police Academy (1984 movie or 2007 year end trend???)
67. Chelsea Clinton (future US president Chelsea Clinton - just watch - in 2028 after the next 20 years split between the Clinton and Bush dynasties)
82. Twilight Zone Marathon (quality way to spend the last hours of 2007)
90. Year of the Rat (Beginning of a 12 year Chinese Zodiac cycle... I for one welcome our rat overlords)

annnnnd

99. Failure (wait... what?)

Happy 2008 everyone.
