Resolutions

As we all rang in the new year across the globe, there is no surpirise that the internet was a buzz about the new year and all things related. Of course, many people take part in the tradition of making resolutions for how they plan to better themselves or the world, more than they did the year before. Anyone going to the gym this week can confirm that one of the most common resolutions is to become more healthy. As such, Weight Watchers was a top performer in the ethernet, breaking the top ten search terms this week. Searches were especially high in the US, Ireland, and Germany. Citizens in West Virginia, Maine, and Alabama originate the highest searches within the United States. The company's share prices has increased by 13 percent this week, which gives reason to resolve to look for quick returns on resolution related companies for 2013.

Pop TV

Sunday, in the US, was all about NFL football with talk of the Giants, Cowboys, Saints, Jets and, of course, about Tebow. Across the pond in the UK and Ireland, it was all about BBC's Eastenders and the death of a character named Pat. Later in the week, in Canada, our northern neighbors enjoyed Canada vs. Russia in Ice Hockey. Finally, a trip back down south has viewers engaged in discussions of Jersey Shore. Assessment: TV advertising still matters, a lot.
