George Carlin's Death Boosts Web Searches for Notorious '7 Words'
As you've surely heard, comedian George Carlin is now the late, great George Carlin, after passing away over the weekend. According to SearchEngineLand (yes, there's a Web site dedicated to search engines -- and no, it's not the only one), a quick look at Google Trends shows that searches related to Carlin have spiked, along with the provacateur's famous "seven words you can't say on TV."
But of those seven famous words, which ones actually spiked? The site found that only two of said (unsaid) words showed "substantial search volume": the F-word and tits.
Somewhere, George is laughing his ass off -- not only that someone took the time to figure this out, but that we are posting it and that you are reading it. Zing. [Source: SearchEngineLand]

To be honest with you, I never knew what the seven words were until I found a link to his original comedy bit on a story of his death.
