By Yemi | 4:27 PM |



As the year slowly comes to an end, Google has released the list of top 10 most searched words as is their tradition every year just to give you an idea of what people have been searching for within the last 12 months.
It's very sad to note how alot of people seem to focus more on sad and depressing issues.
See for yourself.

Top 10 global Google searches
  1.  Robin Williams
  2. World Cup
  3. Ebola
  4. Malaysia Airlines
  5. ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
  6. Flappy Bird
  7. Conchita Wurst
  8. ISIS
  9. Frozen
  10. Sochi Olympics

Top 10 US Google searches
  1. Robin Williams
  2. World Cup
  3. Ebola
  4. Malaysia Airlines
  5. Flappy Bird
  6. ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
  7. ISIS
  8. Ferguson
  9. Frozen
  10. Ukraine
 
Top 10 India Google searches

  1. Elections 2014
  2. FIFA 2014
  3. iPhone 6
  4. GATE 2015
  5. Narendra Modi
  6. IPL 2014
  7. Ragini MMS 2
  8. Kick
  9. Jai Ho
  10. Happy New Year

If you look a the list, you will notice that the global and U.S list are strikingly similar to each other.
The India search list seems to be in a world of its own, as its so different from the U.S or Global Search list.

TechCrunch has noted that this is also the first year where an Apple product has not made it to the top 10 list, not at least in the US or the Global list. The iPad in 2010, iPhone 5 and iPad 3 in 2011, iPad 3 in 2012, and iPhone 5S in 2013.


People have been focusing on depressing topics such as The Malysian airline tragedy, Ebola Outbreak, the rise of the ISIS Terrorist group, the Ferguson unrest and the Ukarine Crisis.


Please Note that this statistics was based majorly on trending searches in the past 12 months and not on the total frequency or number of searches.
