Send me email updates:

I've searched Google web, Images and even news and found nothing .... in trends it shows "intermittent explosive disorder" .. So what are these symbols ? Looks like a prank that made it to Google trends. If you know more let us know.

Thanks Pavan for the telegraph link Google Trend link.

I heard about Swastika goof up but this info in the link is new to me - "People typing "miserable failure" into Google in 2003 were directed to George W Bush's biography on the White House website."
