Miley Cyrus Top Yahoo Searches for 2010

Yahoo! just released its top 10 searches in the US for the year, and topping the list is the BP Gulf of Mexico oil spill, followed by the World Cup footballing tournament and teen pop idol Miley Cyrus. 

It was a celebrity-fueled list, with no less than six in the top 10 being for celebrities, including Lady Gaga and Megan Fox. The only tech product to make it on the list is Apple’s iPhone 4, which was released with much aplomb in June this year. 

In conjunction with the top 10 searches, Yahoo! also provided some insight into the themes that dominated the year in its Year in Review page. According to Yahoo!’s editorial lead Vera Chan, these include natural disasters, survivor stories, workplace exits, financial uprisings and others. 

To illustrate this, Yahoo! commissioned data visualizing experts JESS3 to design a poster that graphically lays out the top trends of the year (see above).
