Social networking tops 2006 search rankings

Google's newly released Year End Zeitgeist for 2006 shows that social networking is top of the search lists.


After monitoring the most searched for terms on Google.com for the whole year, the search giant has revealed that social networking has dominated web searches.


'Bebo' took the crown as the most searched for term throughout the year, followed by 'MySpace'.


Fifth and sixth spots were 'radioblog' and 'wikipedia', which also got a mention in tenth as 'wiki'. Eighth and ninth positions went to 'rebelde' and 'mininova'.


Current events were outlined by the leading search query 'who is Borat' and 'what is Hezbollah', while the Duke University Lacrosse rape scandal topped the scandal searches.
