T.G.I.Buzz.
- Prince Charles (+223%). He’s a little old to be an intern, but the prince, who just turned 60, is still waiting to become king. Apparently, the Queen Mum, a spry 82, has no intention of retiring.
- Homemade christmas gift baskets (+156%). Penny pinchers who want to channel Martha Stewart searched for DIY holiday presents.
- Barney Frank scandal (+133%). The Massachusetts congressman has picked up national interest with his work on the bailout. But searchers are looking for buzz on the 1989 scandal involving a male prostitute.
- California fire (+127%). Residents of a posh area in Santa Barbara fled as fire engulfed about 100 homes. Celebs such as Michael Douglas, Oprah Winfrey, and Rob Lowe own property in the exclusive ocean side enclave.
- Presidential Inaugural Committee (+115%). Interest in the swearing-in ceremony for President-elect Barack Obama is growing, as is a desire to score a ticket to the inauguration. Ebay made news by pledging not to sell scalped tickets on its site.
