Top Google Searches for 2013

Google has revealed 'facebook' was the most searched-for term in the UK in 2013.

Every year, Google releases a list of the most googled terms, with YouTube and Google coming second and third. They also looked at questions and found "what is facebook?" was the most popular, with "what is love?" second. Reality star Kim Kardashian was the most searched for celebrity with One Direction, Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Kate Middleton also in the top ten.

Google also unveiled its "top trending" search terms for the UK in 2013. These are the entries that have seen the largest increase in traffic compared with 2012.

Gareth Bale was the top trending football star, while the Grand National and Wimbledon were the top events, beating Eurovision and the Oscars. There was a battle of the superheroes in top 10 most searched-for movies. Man of Steel beat Iron Man 3 in to top place. Despicable Me 2 was the only animated movie in the list.

John Lewis Bear and the Hare advert spoof

John Lewis Bear and the Hare advert spoof steam traction world


Following on from the past two hugely successful christmas advert campaigns by John Lewis, this year seems to have continued in the same style with The Bear and the Hare.

One firm, Steam Traction World have produced their own 'spoof' version and at a reported fraction of the £1m bill it cost John Lewis to produce their advert (plus a further £7m to air it!)

Bear and the Hare - the Spoof is proving (almost!) equally appealing. Take a look and let us know what you think!

Or head on over the Steam Traction World's Facebook page and leave a comment there.
