Google top search terms for children

According to Symantec's OnlineFamily.Norton, a web-monitoring service for parents, the top 10 search terms for children whose parents use the service between February 2008 and July 2009 are:
1. YouTube
2. Google
3. Facebook
4. Sex
5. MySpace
6. Porn
7. Yahoo
8. Michael Jackson
9. Fred (YouTube star)
10. eBay


That's around 3.5 million searches.

Two thoughts:
1. Who on earth searches for "Google" or "Yahoo"; search engines?
2. How dumb do you have to be not to know or have saved as a favourite: Facebook, MySpace or eBay?
The dumbing down of Britain seems to be continuing apace!
