Here is how you play the game:
  • 1. Download AOL-data.tgz (439mb)
  • 2. Extract the archive and subarchives (will need a couple gigs!)
  • 3. Look through the log files for funny search patterns
  • 4. Post them here following the example format below

yes, it is a large file but it is sooooo worth it for the sheer comedy at the expense of the average AOL user's IQ!

i should make a relational searchable database out of this data, that would be a riot!
you could enter a search term and it would show what else is commonly searched for along with it.
like "president bush" would match high with "utter failure", or "gay" would match high with "porn", or whatever.
problem is, my server would not be able to take the load.
i wonder if the folks over at google would be interested in such a project.
i bet they would do anything to take a stab at AOL.

I found these sets of searches to be rather humorous. User number:

4680964 (some at the top and bottom of the list)
695014 *pedophile*
11860084 (towards the bottom, seems like someone's making some plans?)
2728550 (someone's not having much success in bed?)
14879042 (someone looking to start a new line of work)
6294623 (looks like someone likes theirs large)
8088275 (someone's bored)
11315409 (feeling small?)
