I wrote four versions of this post couldn’t get it right, so I’ll keep this one extremely simple. I have decided that I am no longer going to write this blog. I am too busy with work and school, in 2 months I am taking 6 courses (to finish my degree), and in 6 months I am going traveling for a year. The end is inevitable, so it makes sense to have it here. I should use any extra time I have now to develop my travel blog because I will be living through it for a very long time.

The irony of this situation is that I finally have a blog that people are reading. But that is life. In the last few days I haven’t even had time to open Google Reader (to browse my many RSS subscriptions), and I cannot see me having more time in the foreseeable future. I always seem to end up in these situations. Oh well.

The good news is that you will still be able to follow me along on my travels at www.jpony.com. It’s certainly going to be an interesting adventure, because I’m letting random people all over the world literally make suggestions and vote on what I do. Check it out!

Thank you kindly for your patronage. I hope you join me on my adventures.

Take care,

Jeremy David

The Google Press Center Zeitgeist showcases the most popular search terms… but there seems to be something missing from the list. Now I might be mistaken, but I think it is pretty safe to assume that there are a lot of people out there using Google to find pornography. I remember I read a website that reported 40% of all searches on Google were for adult websites (unfortunately, I cannot seem to find that page again). I would have thought at least one or two of the top Google terms would have been something adult-esque.

Now don’t get me wrong. I honestly do not care if the top search term is sex or not. I do, however, care if companies are providing misinformation. I guess I have two questions.

1. Are the figures presnted to us on the Google Zeitgeist accurate?
2. If not, why is Google censoring / lying to us?

I’m interested to hear what you think. Am I completely off my rocker, or is there something missing from Google’s reports?
