What Teens Google More Than Anything

From Holly Ashworth, About.com Guide   December 23, 2009

What have you been Googling lately? If you're like most teens, you use search engines as shortcuts to your favorite sites, according to a new ranking of teen searches.

8 of the top 10 searches are for popular sites, like YouTube, Facebook and Google. (Which makes you wonder: why are so many people looking for Google when they're on Google?)

Coming in at #4 is "sex," which, considering that teens have lots of questions about sex, isn't a surprise. The real surprise is the search results. Page 2: a YouTube video of slugs having sex? That's not gonna answer many questions.

If you're looking for sex info, I recommend the What is Sex? info hub here at Teen Advice. (Though I must admit, I'm a little biased.)

Here's the top 10 list of teen searches - anything you thought would be here, but isn't?
  1. YouTube
  2. Facebook
  3. Google
  4. Sex
  5. MySpace
  6. Porn
  7. Yahoo
  8. YouTube.com
  9. eBay
  10. Wikipedia
