Filipinos more interested in “sex” than “money”
October 24, 2006
More Filipinos look for “sex” than “money” — in Google search, that is.
Google Trends (www.google.com/trends), a tool from Google Labs that charts how often a particular term is entered relative to the total number of searches done, has proven that Filipino internet users search for the keyword “sex” more often than the keyword “money.”
Google’s data for Philippine searches from 2004 up to 2006 shows that the number of searches for the term “sex” easily eclipsed the number of searches for the keyword “money,” which remained stagnant since 2004.
Searches for “sex” even experienced several spikes during the two-year horizon. (See Fig. 1)
