When I was at Google Mountain View in 2009, they had a TV scrolling through current search terms.. Some of them were hilarious...

It's just displaying this: https://www.google.com/trends/hottrends/visualize?nrow=5&nco...

Oh nice... but it wasn't that in 2009.. and there were some potentially embarrassing search terms display, scrolling past.. but sure, it was probably filtered at some point.
It used to be a slightly different app on a different link, but that's gone now; this one is the replacement (and what the reception displays now use).
Kind of curious about the pornographic search terms : innocuous search terms ratio now...
