Michael Jacksons Tod belebt Google Statistik!

06/27/2009

Wenn Aber-Millionen Menschen rund um den Globus Infos zu Michael Jackson im Internet suchen, kommt zwangsläufig Google in's Spiel. Sehr schön ist in einer Google Grafik ersichtlich, welchen Ausschlag nach oben der Tod des King of Pop in den Jackson relevanten Suchanfragen auf Google brachte.

Offizielle Google Info:
At Google, we are moved by the life and untimely passing of Michael Jackson. As word spread of his death, millions and millions of people from all over the world began searching for information about the pop icon. The following chart shows the meteoric rise in related searches around 3:00pm PDT:


Search volume began to increase around 2:00pm, skyrocketed by 3:00pm, and stabilized by about 8:00pm. As you can see in Google Hot Trends, many of the fastest rising search queries from yesterday and today have been about Michael Jackson's passing (others pertained to the death of another cultural icon, Farrah Fawcett). People who weren't near a computer yesterday turned to their mobile phones to check on breaking news. We saw one of the largest mobile search spikes we've ever seen, with 5 of the top 20 searches about the Moonwalker.

The spike in searches related to Michael Jackson was so big that Google News initially mistook it for an automated attack.

Tja, nicht alles was in Statistiken zu extremen Ausreissern nach oben führt, ist eine böse Attacke! ;-)
