My favorite way to understand the world is to just make it up and pass it off as "research". But my second favorite way is to look at Google Searches and see what people have been searching for.

So every so often (3 months like clockwork as I run out of ideas for top 5s) I look at google.com/insights/search to see what terms have been searched on the mostest by the crazy old Internet users in this crazy old world of ours.

This month you can probably guess the thing that's most on the world's mind. No, not sex. No, not drinking. It has to do with little round balls and men. No not sex, I already told you. Just watch.

And don't forget to click on discussions at Tom's Top 5 to answer the stupid trivia question for a chance to win the Google notebook still sealed with real Google air!
