Us soccer defeat causes a bigger spike in web traffic than mj

June 26, 2009

Obviously, when big news breaks people are increasingly going to the internet and the death of celebrity has people not only searching for news, but also for related content around that individual’s life. I found it interesting that the news of Michael Jackson’s death caused a huge spike in traffic, but, it’s still dwarfed by the election of Obama and strangely by the elimination of the US soccer team by Ghana!
