MADDIE WATCH – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann

HITWISE measures popular search words on the web using science so amazing it will boil your brain.

According to this marketing site:

The top searches in the UK News category included ‘crufts’, ‘transport for london’, ‘bnp’, ‘crufts 2009’ and ‘madeleine mccann’.

What this tell us about the British peoples can be found in Old Mr Anorak’s new book – “While I was Looking For Porn…”

It also tells us that dogs, transport, fascists, dogs and missing children are out pet concerns. Lose a missing dog called Maddie Mitford in the snow and you’ll have a web hit.

All that’s missing is “weather” for any news-savvy Briton to be on top of key events:

“Of the more general news searches, the novelty of January and February’s snow storms contributed to the relatively high number of weather searches,” Robin Goad of Hitwise said.

The next five key phrase search terms were:
Tea
Biscuits
Vicars
Dogging
Noel Edmonds
