Popular search engine Yahoo has launched its annual Year in Review page for 2013, which lists the top search trends for the entire year. What makes this year significant is that, for the first time, the top ten list is joined by a new feature that tracks the hottest Tumblr trends of the year.
Yahoo, which purchased the popular blogging web service earlier this year has aggregated the top search terms in a top-ten list all its own to show people exactly what was on the public's mind throughout 2013.
The colorful mini-site includes this year's top 10 trends online and takes a look back at the top search trends of the last 13 years. In fact, there's even a video rundown of these trends hosted by none other than the legendary newsman, played by Will Ferrell, Ron Burgundy.
The list for searches on Yahoo breaks down as follows:
1. Miley Cyrus
2. Kim Kardashian
3. Kate Upton
4. Minecraft
5. Selena Gomez
6. Obamacare (Affordable Care Act)
7. Amanda Bynes
8. Jodi Arias
9. iPhone 5
10. Justin Bieber
As for the most viral blog searches on Tumblr:
3. Hot-Dog Legs
4. Things Fitting Perfectly Into Other Things
9. Yacht Cats
10. Buzzfeed Articles Without the GIFs
