Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Yes, hands up, it is a fair cop: it has been a whirlwind
year of election news and economic woes in the US and this is reflected
in the Google search top tens. The fastest rising list being perhaps
the most telling.
This list covers the most popular searches for
2008 which is then ranked based upon how much their frequency increased
compared to 2007. No prizes for guessing that Obama was way out in
front for 2008.
The full fastest rising list is as follow:
obama
facebook
att
iphone
youtube
fox news
palin
beijing 2008

Obama, however, did not top the fastest rising searches for Google
News. Interestingly, that honour goes to his rival - no not John McCain
- Sarah Palin. In terms of news searches, Obama was beaten by American
Idol, McCain, Olympics and Hurricane Ike.
Obama also lost out on image searches, with Sarah Palin once again
taking the top spot. Obama did come a close second though, followed by
twilight and Miley Cyrus with the Joker bringing up the year.
Twilight could only take second spot in the fastest rising book
searches for the US though, falling behind Breaking Dawn. In third
place was Lora Leigh followed by Vampire Kisses and New Moon.
