My guess is that most of those searches have been (and continue to be) searches for answers!

The September 11 terrorist attacks, cloning and the Iraq war top a list of online news searches in the last 15 years, a new study shows.

Saddam Hussein, Harry Potter and the deaths of Michael Jackson and Australian conservationist Steve Irwin were also hot topics, according to the list released by internet company Yahoo! to mark its 15th birthday.

The figures also reveal that the number of websites has reached an estimated 200 million from just 18,000 in 1995, with the number of users increasing from 10 million globally, or less than 0.33% of the world’s population, 15 years ago to the current 1.6 billion or 25%, Yahoo! said.

Yahoo! co-founders Jerry Yang and David Filo said: “These numbers are astonishing, but even more important and more exciting is the impact that the internet is having on so many people around the world.

Background; this morning I was checking my comprehensive Google Alerts and was really disturbed about the extraordinary lack of links to articles referencing “Fourteen Points”.

"The Truthers Are Out There" - Weekly Standard Coverage, on Yahoo! News

http://news.yahoo.com/s/weeklystandard/20070918/cm_weeklystandard/thetruthersareoutthere

Imagine a knock on the door after you have been on the internet, blogging, and the next moment you are under arrest. Not the latest BBC drama - but a real life one. Amnesty International today (27th October 2006) launched a campaign in defence of internet bloggers in many countries - including China, Tunisia and Iran who have been arrested for expressing views which have upset their governments.

But how have they been tracked down? It turns out that they have been turned in by major internet providers such as Yahoo and Microsoft, who have supplied foreign governments with the information they need to pursue them. We'll be asking these companies whether they believe in free speech.
