Things Learned from Browsing the AOL Database.

August 11th, 2006 · 1 Comment

  • The number one searched item on AOL is Google.  The number three is Yahoo.  MSN was all the way down at 24. 
  • Many people are functionally illiterate
  • Many people do not know how to spell.
  • Many people search using the URL that they could have just entered in the address bar.
  • There are still people who use AOL, although most of them are old.
  • A lot of people use natural language queries, even though AOL doesn't work (best) that way.
  • It's ok to alternate between searching for biblical quotes and latinsex.com.
  • People search for AOL.com on AOL.com.  As best I can't tell, no one asked how to spell AOL.
  • Many people searching for online dating sites are also asking about information about sexually transmitted diseases.
  • There are people still into Pokemon and Beanie Babies.
  • Some people are having a hard time finding porn on the internet.
