Michael Jackson Death

After the news of Michael Jackson’s untimely death. It has surprised me people are so quick to cash in on the event. Google trends hasn’t quite caught up with this yet looking earlier this morning for Michael Jackson searches there was no spike on the 30-day chart. Tomorrow maybe we will see the spike.

However there is already a web-site which has many jokes that are specifically about his death with Adsense advertising in place (http://www.deadmichaeljacksonjokes.com/). I am not a fan of his but it is still quite distasteful.

Update. On Monday, 29th, the Google trends dwaft the previous data with is not surprising.
