JOBS makes it into the Top 10 Search Terms during 2008

2008 Year-End Google Zeitgeist - Studying the aggregation of the billions of search queries that people type into the Google search box gives us a glimpse into the zeitgeist — the spirit of the times. This is the seventh year of the zeitgeist, and Google has compiled endless lists for more than 30 countries this year - really just the tip of its iceberg of insights into consumer behaviour. The list that e-recruitment buddy is most interest in is the ‘most searched terms in the UK’ as ‘jobs’ is now appearing at number 10:

1. Facebook
2. BBC
3. YouTube
4. eBay
5. Games
6. News
7. Hotmail
8. Bebo
9. Yahoo
10. Jobs

From BBC's iPlayer to Facebook to YouTube, many of the top searches in Britain this year have been for our favourite websites. I suspect that ‘jobs’ will rise considerably throughout 2009.
