Our Year in Google Search for 2015
What did you search for this year?
Google has released its annual ‘Year in Search’ clip on YouTube and it’s a bit of a tear-jerker.
Australians were fascinated with sporting victories (and losses), shark attacks, and tragic news events to name but a few. Searching for ‘what is love’ and, ‘what is the meaning of life’ still top our search lists.
