Guess Google's #1 Topic By Letter
 

I was poking around with searches on Google Chrome and was looking to see what the first search suggestion was for each letter of the alphabet.

I thought I would make it a game.

Anyone can play, but no cheating please.

Guess the top suggested search term when each letter of the alphabet is typed into google.


ANSWERS:
=======
A - Amazon (cheater)
B - Best Buy (cheater)
C - CraigsList (cheater)
D - Dictionary (cheater)
E - Ebay (cheater)
F - Facebook (cdcox)
G - Google (Guru)
H - Hotmail (Delano)
I - IMDB (Gonzo)
J - JC Penny (big nasty kcnut)
K - Kohls (Delano)
L - Lowes (Delano)
M - Myspace (CoMoChief)
N - NFL (mlyonsd)
O - Obama (bugeater)
P - Photobucket (badmajama)
Q - Quotes (badmajama)
R - Recipies (mlyonsd)
S - Sears (Pitt Gorilla)
T - Target (Pitt Gorilla)
U - UPS (mlyonsd)
V - Verizon Wireless (badmajama)
W - Walmart (Pitt Gorilla)
X - Xbox360 (CoMoChief)
Y - Youtube (cdcox)
Z - Zappos (Delano)

O has to be Obama.


Off to DC!!!

I is for Ipad?

P - Porn

A - Apple

Should we assume that they filter the dirty stuff?

Edit: Also, does it matter where one lives? I know that my Safari Google bar seems to pull info based on where I am searching.

Surprisingly, no.

Nope.

W has to be Wal-Mart. T for Target? S for Sears?

No and no.

A= amazon

B= best buy

C= craigslist

d= dictionary

e= ebay

So I realized that on a few of the letters, my search box was modifiying my suggestions for me (o=office depot, p = pima community college), so I'm skipping those.

I googled the topic and found someone else listing the top 10 for each letter so I'm going to use the list from this site as the official answers. They are mostly the same, but it avoids the confusion.

And O is Obama.

Yes, yes, yes.

They aren't dirty as far as I can tell. Pretty universal.

Y = youtube?

Yes, yes, yes, yes.


You are cheating, please stop.

Same here with Firefox, I type in 'o', and the first thing that comes up is Omaha World Herald. I'm guessing that doesn't happen in Kansas City.

That was sort of what I was asking in my question. In the past, Safari has kept my searches somewhat local. You may have to consider that.

G

Google or Guru

Yep.

F = facebook?

Yep, Google has 6 of the top 10 in "G".

A lot of people don't use the address bar of their browser, they just Google everything. So....

Yeah, I think it's not exactly "local" as it is adaptive based on your search history. The list I'm using now is clearly a true and unmodified list.

I have noticed that occasionally things will pop up that I've previously searched for, but I've never googled Omaha World Herald. If I'm looking for something from them I just go directly to their website.

lol...one of my friends does that, it doesn't make any damn sense at all. Why add an unnecessary step?

Yes.

x=x-ray

too late

I'll guess Qwest for Q

Nope.

Nope.

Q is a tricky one. Depending on where I look, it's either #1 (my search results, I'm a qwest customer) or #7 on the list I found online (ie, "the answers").

The problem is that #1 for Q will never be guessed because I think it's a product of the fact that it's a 2008 list.

Quantum of Solace.

I'll go with the #2 in both lists which is identical. And it's not Qwest.

I=itunes?

M=maps?

P=photobucket?

j is jcpenney

U for United States, USA, or some form of that.

X for XP

P for Pioli

M- MOTHER**** YOU SCOTT PIOLI!

No, no, yes.

I would have said no, but the #1 according to the list I have is "Jennifer Hudson" so I think it's obviously from a period during which Jennifer Hudson's family was killed. #2 is JCP, so we're going with that.

Good job.

I'll take either of two different but related answers for U and neither is USA.

X is not XP in this case.

U=UFO?

Or UFC?

k=kuhns

J- Jesus

Q - Queen

I - Iceland

Are these recent searches or tops of all time?

H - Home Depot
L - Lowes
Z - Zappos.com
D - DID TODD HALEY SAY **** YOU TO A FAN AT ARROWHEAD?
T - TAGS, DAFACE, MAKE IT HAPPEN
2 - 2012 OMGz

Nope and nope. UFC is in the top 10 though.

No and no.

It's more all time than recent.

V-viagra?
Posted via Mobile Device

No (HD = #2), Yes, Yes.

Nope. That's the #1 spam term.

Is K K-Mart?

LOL at capitalism.

X - Xbox

Oh, I see. Ok then.

Visa maybe?
Posted via Mobile Device

That's #2.

V - Vatican

N - New York City or some company with New York in the name.

Not even top 10. Suprising. Maybe because none of us look for "Visa" specifically but Bank of America or Credit Card.

Maybe if the results were from this week. But nope.

M has to be Myspace if F is Facebook

Hmmm... K... Kellogg's? If it's a pop culture thing, I have no idea.

N - Netflix

V-Virgin mobile?

V is mine, dammit!

H - Hotels.com
J - JC Penney
K - Kinkos
U - UPS or USA Today
H - Hotwire
M - MSNBC
I - IRS

H - Hotmail
J - jAZ is slow

My wife wants me to neg rep him for getting her interested in a CP thread and then walking away.

Coming back... On my phone now. X=xbox. Don't remember the rest.

Yep.

Close enough. Xbox 360

No, already guessed (yes), no

Yes (UPS), no, no, no.

No, but #6.

No, #1 for K will be a little suprising.

Nope, #2... #1 is going to be a "duh" moment.

NY Times
NBC
Newsweek

Nope nope nope.

Ipod
Iphone

K- KFC?
