Quote from the above article.. 

On April 4, for instance, user 14162375, the melancholy Portuguese-American in Florida, seems to have passed out on the keyboard at 6.20pm, when he asked, suddenly, “llllfkkgjnnvjjfokrb” then “vvvvbmkmjk” and “vvglhkitopppfoppr”. An hour later he had recovered enough to search for variations on his wife’s name - he thought she might have moved to New England. On the evening of April 16, matters came to a head. “My cheating wife,” he typed; and then, five times, “I want to kill myself,” and then “I want to make my wife suffer,” followed quickly by “Kill my wifes mistress,” “My wifes ass,” “A cheating wife”. Two days after that he was back looking for audio surveillance and bugging equipment and four weeks later he seemed to have cheered up and was looking for motorcycle insurance.

Sex.. Is everyone searching for it..

Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006

I can’t believe the amount of “sex” type keywords in this AOL data..  

I know the business is big but omg not that big..  Why.. Well doing some research on my target markets i’d search the queries for the like of “men’s shoes”..
Then look into the users searches according to the ID from the above query search..

Wham bam..  Sex and body parts (including “hairy”) came up (please note the spelling of “came”) 

Anyway back to the point..

So many  “innocent” looking searchers are “Sex mad”..
