In the ten most searched keywords is also another person who is no more: Steve Jobs , in the company of the elusive iPhone 5 and iPad2. Instead Battlefield 3 most searched video game. And in Italy?

Another person who has sadly left us too soon, Marco Simoncelli is on the top list of things looking for, followed by Dance Kuduro and iPhone 5. Our country is also seeking more than anything else the meaning of Lol , the "Tammarro" and "Nemesis", and apparently the most recurring dream about pregnant women.
