It would seem that Western Australia’s internet users are not the porno fiends we once were. Google has new search analysis tool which can report popular search terms in Australia and according to them Western Australians were more interested in ‘news’ than old fashioned internet pornography.
Google searches for “news” are most popular in the Northern Territory and Western Australia, while those for “shoes” usually come from Victoria and “the beatles” from South Australia.
The top Australian search terms so far this year are: “games”, “youtube”, “myspace”, “ebay”, “google”, “facebook”, “weather”, “hotmail”, “yahoo” and “real estate”.
Searches for “porn” are most popular in Queensland and New South Wales and least popular in Tasmania and the Northern Territory.
