Here is the Google Zeitgeist list, of top searches for 2006.

If you want to see the level of consciousness - the "altitude" of the internet-going public, well, now you can.

Encouragingly, the searches for 2006 seem to be pretty good. - Social networking

First off, there's Bebo - something I didn't even know about, another social networking site, looks like a cross between MySpace and YouTube.

MySpace is second - makes sense, considering their traffic is rivalling Yahoo's now.

World Cup - always a favorite.  Wiki and wikipedia are there.

Another video service, MetaCafe.

Rebelde is interesting - a Mexican TV series?

And then mininova - A bittorrent dream.

Now, on the other side - news - not so much.

First Google News search is Paris Hilton, then Orlando Bloom, and the last of the top ten is Celebrity Big Brother 2006.

No wonder TV news programs seem to become more reality TV every day - that is the type of news people are searching for!

Great and simple article on how to have your whole office, (in terms of data and apps) on the web, from one starting page interface.

An update on Google Reader, and blog reading.  I find the new setup of Google Reader to be incredibly useful - while at the same time, I haven't abandoned My Yahoo.  Still, the ease of reading one line synopsis, tagging the articles, sending out, etc - very nice.  I find I can manage a lot more feeds, without getting bogged down.

I'm going to put a permanent link to the Integral Wiki blogger feed, and put it prominently on this site - if anyone sees a site on the Integral Wiki blogger list, that isn't coming through on the feed, make sure to let me know.
