Why is there a sudden, relatively enormous spike in the relative popularity of searching "Granny" into google in early 2006
I really do not know who to ask. I have been scouting google trends, and wanted to see how popular the game "Granny" is. The result was finding a sudden, huge spike in the term's popularity in late 2005 to early 2006 (roughly december 15th 2005 to january 18th 2006).
blue - \"Granny', red \"Granny porn\"
Here is what i was able to deduct myself:
-There exists a weekend effect, around saturadays and sundays
-There has been no significant cultural or political effect that could have caused this trend
- The spike was exactly january 1st 2006
-The trend was international in both english speaking and non english speaking countries
-The rise of "Granny" roughly correlates with the rise of "Granny porn"
-There was also a sudden rise in the term "porn", which had happened in November 2005
-a similar spike does not occur for the search "Grandma" or "Grandmother"
-The internet was far more often young males than other demograhic, which could potentially support the porn hypothesis
Please help me I am going insane
