AOL Search Data

August 7th, 2006

As quite a lot of people know by now, AOL screwed up “a bit” by releasing search data. They took it offline ofcourse when it hit the news, but mirrors are appearing quickly.

While browsing the data, I/others found quite some interesting stuff, like people wanting to commit murder,
but I also want to point out the following user-trace of user 14109288 (stripped a bit for readability):

Note the timestamps of the last two lines, sounds like he had, well, an evening that did not go as planned :D

    That is seriously funny. I feel sorry for the guy… but hey it’s still funny! Had to be real fast considering he was looking for positions just 23 minutes beforehand. Still laughing!
