Every end of the year, an individual is named the most searched person based on data compiled by people who compile that data. This year's most searched person was non other than almost baby daddy, pop tart Justin Bieber. Right on his heels and appropriately so, was Kim Kardashian. Is this evidence that America and the rest of the internet world has too much time on their hands?
To say any of this is surprising would be disingenuous. Record sales, ratings, the line outside the Dash boutique on any day that ends in "Y" -- these indicators don't lie. Biebs and Kim K are clearly people the general population is attracted to, it's just a little shocking to see that more people are plugging their names into Google than say, Steve Jobs (No. 8), a truly enigmatic innovator whose mark will be left on this world long after Bieber and Kardashian have faded from memory.[TheScoop]
