Happy Weekend from Google

Friday, June 4, 2010

From our friends from Google NZ:
We received an overwhelming international response to our 30th anniversary PAC-MAN Google doodle – so much so that we’ve now made it a permanent fixture!


As you can see from the search lists for May below, PAC-MAN was top of mind for Kiwis too, storming to the top of the fastest-rising list.

Fastest rising web searches on Google.co.nz, May
1. Pacman
2. Budget
3. Bloxorz
4. American Idol 2010
5. NCEA

PAC-MAN’s popularity got us thinking about online games – after all, ‘games’ are rarely out of our most-searched lists each month and May was no exception.

So we took a look back at New Zealand’s most searched-for terms in 2009 to see which games captured Kiwis’ imaginations. Here’s what we found... Game on Kiwis!
