A very sad news hit me today, when I was going through the web. Yes, to sum it up, the title of this posts says it all. Symantec has released the data on top searches by kids in 2009 and it reveals that the terms such as “sex” or “porn” was in the top 5 list. With the media intoxicating with such things in children makes such search terms acceptable to an extent in “teens.” But the following search results that Symantec has released is giving a very scary picture.

December 19th, 2009 Sarosh Waiz Yahoo is still the world’s third most visited website and the company has not been doing well since quite sometime now. They have been low on revenues, have been cutting costs to increase profitability, and have also dropped in their search share. The worse part is that the company seems to have lost its passion as it has shown consistent lack of innovation. They have outsourced their search to Bing and have also outsourced all the “social plans & ideas” to Facebook recently.

Watching and sharing videos is one of the most favored activities that people prefer to engage in online, especially after the advent of video sharing websites like Youtube, Metacafe and DailyMotion. But the question is, how do we get to know which videos are catching the fire to go viral? Well, Bit.ly is trying to answer this question as Ben Parr writes about it on Mashable.
