Here are some top moments of 2016 as defined by what we searched for online. Not just we the searchers in our community but fellow citizens around the world. What was important to me? What was important to you? There were moments of difficulties, of challenges, moments of beauty, inspiration and comic relief. The world mourned, the world laughed, the world was shocked the world was inspired. We wanted to find out more Brexit and the Zika virus. The US presidential election was popular. We searched new memes and events brought us together - the Olympics and Pokémon Go.
