Google Zeitgeist 2007 Available

Google’s review of the top searches for 2007 is now available at their Zeitgeist 2007 site. What can you say but the iPhone rocked the Net. And with all her troubles, momma Britney Spears search popularity did not suffer. As I’ve seen here on Pulpconnection, Dancing with the Stars was a hot topic.

The Nintendo Wii is picking up search steam. HD-DVD is beating out Blu-ray along with LCD TVs over plasmas. Music from iTunes has more searches than Bittorrent and Limewire.

And who knew the people ask Google how to kiss?

Remember Bell Biv DeVoe?

,

How can you forget Poison, Do Me!,and When Will I See You Smile Again? I was talking with Coco Bean about music from the 90’s after she attended a forgettable concert featuring Sweet Sensation, Cover Girls, Freedom Williams of C+C Music Factory, and others then I thought of BBD, Bell Biv DeVoe.

I also remembered meeting the trio (actually mainly Michael Bivins) at a celebrity basketball game back in the day on the campus of the caffeinated Anteaters. Got Biv’s autograph on their WBBD – BOOTCITY! remix CD.

50,000 Visits, w00t!

All I can say is w00t! Pulpconnection passed 50,000 visits yesterday thanks to readers addicted to passions and pulp (and Julianne Hough farting on Dancing with the Stars).

The visits timeline:

What was the hot content during this time? Dancing with the Stars, UH WAC championship shirts, and kicks dominated.

  2. /2007/05/apolo-has-lifted-off.html

  8. /2006/05/high-tech-kicks-for-ballin.html

But by far, Julianne Hough’s fart brought in the most views. Referenced by truemors.com, this post accounted for 33% of the visits.

At 40,000 visits, Club 939 fell off of the list of top keywords. Did it make it back?

And lastly, where did the traffic come from?

Thanks for all the visits everyone. I didn’t think Pulpconnection could pass the 50,000 mark before the end of the year, but here we are. Don’t forget there’s still time to play in the Pour Some Sugar on Me giveaway. The list of naughty and nice prizes is almost done with the addition of another naughty gift. w00t!

w00t is the Word!

Merriam-Webster polled for their #1 Word of the Year for 2007, and the winner is w00t! Here’s the definition:

w00t (interjection) – expressing joy (it could be after a triumph, or for no reason at all); similar in use to the word “yay”

Supposedly w00t! is derived from the saying “we owned the other team” in online gaming circles and the double o’s got replaced by double zeroes.

Here’s their top ten list for #1 Word of the Year 2007

  1. w00t!
  2. facebook
  3. conundrum
  4. quixotic
  5. blamestorm
  6. sardoodledom
  7. apathetic
  8. Pecksniffian
  9. hypocrite
  10. charlatan

Bonus points if you can use these words in a status report.

If there were a top phrase for 2007, it’d got to be “Don’t tase me, bro!” w00t!

Gregg Hammer* < Sam Da Man < Rory Wild

,

I’m sorry but with all the comedic genius that is Gregg Hammer, listening to I-94’s Wake-Up Crew is tough without Rory Wild leading the pack. Rory’s timing, coordination, wit, and perspectives drives the Wake-Up Crew with great interplay with Gregg, Natasha, and Krey-Z. When Rory’s gone, Hammer running the show just ain’t the same.

This is when I turn to other stations like 102.7 Da Bomb with Sam Da Man. Sam is pretty funny but as the lead DJ, he can’t compete with Rory, but sorry to say, he is better than Hammer.

There is one exception though. Gregg likes to play some old school R&B and rap music instead of the current same old so he gets props for that. You can never go wrong with Tupac’s California Love.

Did You Pass the Cheer?

,

Did you pass the cheer this year using Starbucks’ ItsRedAgain site? With this service, you assemble an animated electronic greeting card then send it to your friends to “pass the cheer.”

Now here’s the good part, since you passed the cheer, Starbucks returned the favor by giving early users a $5 gift card. Cool huh? This is a limited time offer, and I can’t promise that if you pass the cheer now, you’ll get this $5 offer.
