thats really funny.. but that just shows the trend of categories on – "how to's " that is being searched via Google..

How to get a girl and how to get a guy seem to top results!!

and the 6pack thing is pretty weird.. I mean do guys really freak so much about their ab's ??

I do not have a six-pack, but if I found a mutually loving partner, a passport, and a published book, I guess my next goal would be a rock-hard bod.

Plant a tree, have a child, write a book, build a house.

That's the traditional list of things to aspire for. It used to also include "dig a well", but I guess that's no longer needed and can be replaced by "travel the world" (or, by proxy, "get a passport" which seems to be becoming harder to get every year).

Anyway, who's to say that the Google list includes "find a loving partner". Maybe it means "find two loving partners", as in "find a girl" AND "find a guy".

I never thought about asking Google how to get a girlfriend. I'll see what happens. If I get a gf thanks to Google, I'll let you know. For sure.

Six pack doesn't mean an ab work out. 6 packs are delicious beer.

Check the AOL search database, you'll be surprised. The things people search for .... on Google :-).

What did they do before the web? Ask a librarian?

Seems like these people should be canceled out – about 166,050,000 guys looking for girls and 135,870,000 girls looking for guys. There should only be 30 million guys left alone if Google really could pair people up. They should just analyze search patterns and match compatible people up. In Google the Matchmaker we trust (I seem to remember an April Fools joke about that)

   When and if I end up as a librarian, I hope I get asked such amusing questions!

You try "How to get " and wait for the suggestion, its still worse

I actually beg to differ...
Instead of "the luckiest person on earth" I think you mean "the luckiest geek on earth"... or maybe the luckiest Googler.

Hey! I'm no. 1 for "how to get a book published."

I should be making some money from this.
