More Google Trends spamming...

Well, it's by no means definite, but when the second and third top trending topics on Google Trends are "Oprah removes sixth toe" and "Megan Fox molests black baby" you have to figure that something is not quite right with the list of trending topics being displayed tonight...

This follows on from last week - and the 4chan spam attack that not only added an offensive term to the top of the trending topics but also filled the remaining 19 spots with topics such as 'pet shops' and 'gas stations'.

However, what is highly amusing to see is the flurry of automated blogs that are now firing into action; grasping hold of the Google Trends headlines and automatically generating nonsensical content that only serves to perpetuate the initial headline....
