The Top Trending Google Searches in Every US State Throughout the 2010s
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- The map shows the highest trending Google searches for every state. Trending searches from 2010 to 2020 were taken from Google's annual Year in Search summary.
Google Trends provides weekly relative search interest for every search term, along with the interest by state. Using these two datasets for each term, we're able to calculate the relative search interest for every state for a particular week. Linear interpolation was used to calculate the daily search interest.
Every state: Abortion
Mississippi: Temple Run
JAJAJAJAJAJ LITERAL
Every state: Ted Cruz
Vermont: Bernie Sanders
Oregon: Nike
@CJ1013 opa
Yeah. I noticed.
Every state in 2010: follows trends
Nebraska in 2010: *Jimmy Johns*
as a nebraskan, i do not know why we were searching that
@@Cape34770jimmy johns
@Cape34770 me neither man i never recalled it being that popular
As a nebraskan, yes
Or Ohio with McDonalds Nutrition - it’s really funny
5:33 Florida searching up Florida man is such a Floridian thing to do

I love the constant McDonalds nutrition
I know! Back when we used the internet primarily for everyday things and it hadn’t taken over our lives yet 😭
It was for sure around the time when people started noticing what made them unhealthy.
It’s striking how synchronized all the states can be at times. For all the divisions between cultural regions in the US, we are united by our love for movies, phones, and harambe
I wish the media would focus on our similarities instead of our differences. Its only striking to us because the media tries to rip us apart as a country.
I remember coming across and article with a map showing how the U.S. is really more like 6 or 7 different countries.
You Americans really are proud of your hivemind mentality 🤨
And abortions.
It’s actually kinda concerning. Becoming a monoculture seems like a recipe for stagnation
I love how “solar eclipse” roughly follows the path of totality.

timestamp?
@@51HeHe 7:57
Yesss I came down just to comment this
I wonder if they did a more up to date version if it would do the same for the 2024 one
"fidget spinner" into "despacito" was such a brutal 1-2 punch
Every state: coronavirus
Texas: Nuh uh
Love that for them
Red state moment 😅
Mfs were bumping The Weeknd shit instead of learning about the virus that’s why Texas had so many die of COVID
Top trending is probably роrnо but you take it from a censored list of words not the real top search I guess
America: "AHHHHH WE'RE ALL DEAD!!!"
Texas: "Trying to put you in the worst mood, Ah. P1 cleaner than your church shoes, ah"
Can we appreciate Nebraska’s commitment to Jimmy John’s for like the first minute and 15 seconds?
it stopped at 1:00
Meanwhile Kentucky looking up McDonald's nutritional information:
As a nebraskan I think it's a bit weird how little jimmy johns I see nowadays with how popular it was
And Indiana not being taken over by Katey Perry. They also mostly searched Jimmy John's.
only if we can appreciate virginia's dedication to selena gomez.
Most of this video was me going, "Oh *yeah*... that was a *thing*...."
Yeah…

Louisiana stayed pretty consistent with Kim Kardashian at first💀
I saw that, Louisiana must be her stomping grounds. ( I don't care enough to look it up. )
I think she was dating Reggie Bush at the time and he was playing in New Orleans
@@weuniceYeah she was. My dad was friends with him.
This honestly does a great job of summarizing the evolution of 2010s pop culture.
It's amazing how this shows so effectively what's on America's mind. There's so much to think about from this.
Rather what they don't know and need to search for
@@AIMMOTH True. Or both~
Uhmm ... have you thought, nationally we’re being led by those in power that we don’t know, to pursue the most stupid meaningless trends?
@@cici79 There we go!! You see it!! Im with you. Everyone else? Well keep being you! You are precious!! HAHAHAH
"so much" and yet they all seem to focus on just one or two things at a time. Group think is real.
Everybody in America: Abortion
Oregon: Nike
What can I say, we love ourselves some Nike
I noticed.
Alabama: hey lets play temple run instead of talking about abortion
mississippi: whats that
Alabama: a game where you outrun a gorilla

one of the saddest frames is when Florida is Orlando Shooting for a second while every single other state is Finding Dory
It’s actually the one that took place in parkland fyi
@@ayozayo9420i think parkland was actually a little later, when nearly the whole country said florida shooting
the 'orlando shooting' was the gay nightclub shooting
Everyone: Lil Pump
Alaska: Lil Peep
According to this map fortnite had a larger cultural wave than the pandemic, the me too movement, and the abortion debate combined
Lmao but remember how long it was popular for though?
Yes
Bc fortnite makes money lol
Proof that fortnite is an addiction lol
@@vegetableman3911 Fortnite is still popular. Just not at the insane heights it once was
This is my favorite visual representation of data ever
Same here
9:10 everyone: baby shark and bohemian rhapsody

Same thing with Montana and Farcry 5 at 8:35 lol, it's endearing to see people googling game about their state :)
@@badjuju2721 ooh thats so cool!

Everyone in America: Abortion
New York: Metropolitan Museum of Art

Missippi: Temple run
Probably tourists.
For pretty much all of 2012, the Met NY's top search. Their advertising team was fire that year 😂
I like how in January 2019 people couldn’t decide whether to search for Baby Shark or Fortnite
And then it insta switche to r kelly.

Corona Virus never trended in Texas lol
It did but some of us had heads up our asses and didn’t care. I don’t miss 2020. F### that year.
I only miss the good from 2020. I had a couple of those, but 2020 was still a bad year lol.

I have never felt more out of touch with the mainstream :)
Watching this video makes me feel better about "living under a rock" because the trends/news truly is a defecation show. If it's worth my time and conscience, I'll research it further if it interests me, or hear about it from family/friends; where they didn't study beyond the headlines and insert their opinions as if they're a professor on the subject. Otherwise, I'll be reading a book and/or improving myself.

Can't believe that Pepe was actually this popular.
*Feelsgoodman*
You know they looked it up because people thought Pepe was a hate symbol?
@@intervjaurenh4060 I kinda knew that. But i never knew people actually took it that seriously. :P

I kinda want a version of this where its a group of people yelling the results.
on it
Finished already? Wanna see that
i forgot how popular selena gomez was in 2010 dam
Fr. Was she singing then, or was that just from her show?
It’s funny how Ohio and Kentucky stayed at “McDonald’s nutrition” the whole beginning
As someone who lives in Vegas it hurts to see in October 2017 the stuff googled was “las Vegas shooting” I still remember watching the news that night
7:59 The way solar eclipse states lines up perfectly with the states that would have seen that 2017 solar eclipse
Fundamentally it shows 1) How the mainstream media shapes what the average people think and do. 2) How fast it changes, these searches move in tune with the 24 hour media cycle. 3) There is no significant regional variation, not even in Alaska or Hawaii. Really it means that your US media is good at what it does. I would be interested it see how this contrasts with your neighbours across the northern border. They are exposed to the same situations in the same language, and have access to the same media. Do this again with Canada on the map.
(1) I think you're assuming a causal relationship between trending searches and mainstream media. This map doesn't tell us anything about what mainstream news stations were showing at the time, though a correlation is a pretty safe bet. This map doesn't show us the causal relationship: the results are consistent with your expectations about that relationship, so you're concluding it establishes a causal relationship.
(2) The map uses daily trending search data for the USA. The search results are daily, so the results could correlate with anything that has a 24 hour period.
Take a look at the link below and you will find that some of the results for trending keywords were the same for the whole USA for periods of days. The results probably weren't broken down in to hours, minutes and seconds for practical reasons. The results could be grouped in to any arbitrary time period. If the results were hourly, then it would appear that the trends have hourly periods.
It's not like this shows a comprehensive list of all of the thousands upon thousands of trending searches and compares them to major news stories that were playing.
(3) Check out other videos that V1 Analytics posted and you will see that while there is a lot of uniformity in the trending searches, there are obvious examples of significant regional variation or division.
For example, arly in this video, the top trending search in the eastern half of the USA is "McDonald's nutrition" and for the western half of the country it's "Selena Gomez." I don't think we would expect to see all that much variation given the resolution of the map is at the state level and one trending search per state (per day or frame) is shown.
You asked for data from Canada to be compared with the USA. I quickly grabbed this from Google Trends (trends.google.com):
2019 Canada Trending Searches
1) Toronto Raptors
2) Kawhi Leonard
3) Canada Election Results
4) Luke Perry
5) Cameron Boyce
6) Game of Thrones
7) Bianca Andreescu

9) Thanos
10) Hurricane Dorian

There is really a lot of data you can go through on Google Trends to look at regional variations. I can post some simple examples of what you'd like to see, but I bet if you just play around on it that you'd find some interesting data to discuss.
It's terrifying how much control a TV can have over people.
Operation Mockingbird is alive and well.
@@hickoryst.6961 Lookup "media consolidation the illusion of choice"
That lays it out pretty well.
@phencyclidine5456 The whole thing just made me feel like I've been out of touch with the general public...
Also, there are likely more removed words due to being inappropriate in subject matter. Cause I'm pretty sure finding dory wasn't the most searched thing for that long lol
If you skip to the end and then beginning you need a stark contrast. You see how relatively disconnected the world was in 2010 compared to 2020. It shows us how prevalent social media has become and it paints a picture that the American people are brainwashed today.
everyone: thrift shop
Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, and South Dakota: slender man
That probably was around the time where some girl tried to stab another girl to death to sacrifice her to the slenderman. The victim survived tho and was stabbed tons of times
This Made me finally realize that most people searching are kids and teens, especially a decade ago even more so
Getting flashbacks and nostalgia reliving the 2010s.

Interesting 3 of the current covid hotspots (TX, CA, AZ) were the only states searching "The Weeknd" while literally every other state was searching "coronavirus."
We already know so many people than we had expected got infected. Lot of people infected, very few deaths. Check the death rate & lay off the mainstream media. It’s melting your judgement. People actually get stupider listening to them, because they become so misinformed & invited to endless waves of stupidness. You’re welcome, I had the kindness to inform you.
West Virginia was the first state to search "coronavirus" and have among the lowest infection rates in the country
I'm not too surprised: Texas and Arizona have a reputation for having a fair share of ignorance amongst their residents. While California loves to show itself as being progressive, sometimes it is absolutely backasswards and more ignorant that the Southern stereotypes (e.g. California's rulings on glyphosate are based in hatred for Monsanto and not in love of reason and evidence).
@@cici79 interesting to see how wrong you were

It’s pretty fascinating to see certain trends start in one of the central states and stretch out like a balloon whereas certain other trends take over the coast lines all at once and and have to instead stretch inwardly at times. Some trends take mostly the whole country by storm. It sort of shows how just different locations on land can influence the mindsets of people pushing for other ideas to surface. I’m only a minute through so it could change but I’m noticing the coastline is more comfortable with spending their time with media and technology related topics and as we get just one or two more inland on either side we see larger pattern of different food or community related trends
3:53 New Mexico searching breaking bad hahaha
What a cool way to present that data! It's a wild ride and we're all on it together.
June 15: BLM
The South: The Weeknd?
Its because people from the south know every life is important including our black brothers and sisters! The only people who need a reminder that black lives matter are people from the north apparently.
Rex C how does that even make sense hahaha what a stupid comment
They were too busy listening to his album to care about black deaths
@sharon * look at where the riots and police brutality cases are and then tell me my comments stupid! Don’t like facts or what? The most atrocious killings all happen in Democratic run states too.

Yeah it's almost like people would be concerned about a tragic event that happened within their state and could happen to them next.
@@flextape467 A random nutcase can happen to anyone at any time. This is just the irrational assumption that being in the same state as someone else makes him somehow part of your life.
Wild. What a decade. Fascinating.
I think it’s interesting certain states change when a natural phenomena hits. Solar eclipse for places in the path of totality. Or when a Hurricane hits like with Sandy at 2:53
If we combining it at 7:58 you can see states are drawing the eclipse path of the great american eclipse 2017 by the trending search while Texas are preparing for Hurricane Harvey.

But also the worst season for literally everything else, so... you win some, you lose some
This is sad to watch. But the worst part is as time goes on they become more and more uniform
I always knew i was different. Of those hundreds of searches, I probably only contributed to five of them. It blows my mind how many searches there were for music that I hate. I know its mainstream, but i always assumed people listened to it because its on the radio. I never thought they would actively seek out garbage.
I feel exactly that way too. I probably only searched for about 5 of these things ever, none of this music shown matters to me, and the things I did happen to look up were the big event ones like George Floyd (but I live in Minneapolis so yeah) or coronavirus, or a shooting. I have never even eaten at a Jimmy Johns but MN got stuck on JJ for awhile.
This is weird to basically watch my life replay lol
