Wikipedia posted an article, Sunday, 27 August — about their new experiment learning about what is searched on their site — using Wikicharts for analysis.
5 of the first 10 topics are about sex. At least:
List of gay porn stars, Oral sex, Sexual intercourse, Wii, Human sexuality.
OK, Wii probably isn’t about sexuality. Make it 4.
For Kindle and with free ePub version. Only $9.49 Great reading.
Here is what Gary Shapiro CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) said: Dvorak's writing sings with insight and clarity. Whether or not you agree with John's views, he will get you thinking and is never boring. These essays are worth the read!

Woo-hoo! Stan Lee beat out oral sex!
Woo-hoo! Pluto beet Stan Lee!
Sorry, I couldn’t resist that.
I would love to know the religious status of the people doing the searches. That would make this REALLY interesting.
I am flabbergasted. People are interested in sex? And I thought all they cared about what American Idol and Britiney Spears.
And you think Britiney Spears has/had nothing to do with sex?
Wii. Ha!
I’m wondering how accurate that search engine is.
Wii? Can we not stop joking about the name already??
Oui Oui!
Help the cause, check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bear_community
why David Bowie?
Dude, I don’t think that thing works. Check out the numbers it shows:

They’re way too round to be real. Plus, it’s only been running for a day or so, so even if it WERE real, the statistics would be heavily biased and non-representative.
and…as always americans show their unique way of saying “i love being ignorant and i don’t care”. a few months agos everything was american idol and britney…but…britney’s been dead for months
greetz
BTW: Pluto indeed has more important things to doiscuss than anal sex anyways
So I want to know does any body else use wikipedia and what for?
what was the most informatibve artical you found there?
What was the wierdest one you found?
I use wikipedia mostly durring my lunch time at work to just read up on stuff. the most informative artical I found was on the mineing and refineing
process for copper (because I learned about the job I have, and got to show off to co-workers ;p) the most interesting was probably on cheese witch I
actualy e-mailed to my self so I could finish reading it after work.
oh well, got wiki?
