Google: The Magic 8-Ball Ouija Board Palm Reader
And note the not-so-surprising fact that "if a girl likes you" was asked 13 million times, while "if a guy likes you" only 1 million times. Draw your own conclusions. I'm sure Chris Rock could riff on this.Labels: Chris Rock, Google, randomness, search engines

My favorite might be "How do you get pink eye."
I envision 1.6 million people thinking, "I have this urgent desire to get pink eye. How do I go about getting it?"

I don't. My conclusion was it's obvious when a guy likes someone. Girls are better at disguising their feelings.

The result count isn't how many people have asked, but rather an estimate of how many results Google's index contains.

Sorry :-) I suppose engineers shouldn't be reading ad blogs in the first place, but I can't help myself.

I'll attempt to make amends by pointing out the ideal companion site to this thread -- googlefight.com.
