What Are We Searching For?

Jon Stewart is driving people's attention at the moment. His book EARTH (the book) remains in the number one spot on the NY Times Best Seller list for hardcover nonfiction and the number one search phrase on Google right now is:"rally to restore sanity schedule."


Perhaps, like me, many people are finding out to their dismay that the rally is a little early for a Saturday. An evening rally might have been better.


More tsunami survivors are being found in the Mentawai Islands - making mentawai the hottest topic on twitter, according to Google Trends. 


Though Stewart's book has remained number one there's been some reshuffling on the list.  The second top spot on the NY Times Best Seller list for hardcover nonfiction is: Autobiography of Mark Twain, Vol. 1. Publishers Weekly notes, "Twain's memoirs are a pointillist masterpiece from which his vision of America - half paradise, half swindle - emerges with indelible force." Perhaps not much has changed in a century.

Stay tuned for the most popular news stories from around the world...
