Lycos just released its list of the top 50 Internet search terms for 2006, and the word 'Poker' topped the list. Poker beat out stalwart search engine celebrities like Pamela Anderson and Paris Hilton to nab the top spot. The big mover for the year was the term 'My Space', the white hot social networking site saw a 568% rise in searches on its name to finish in the # 2 spot. The top ten most searched terms were 1) Poker 2) MySpace 3) RuneScape 4) Pamela Anderson 5) Paris Hilton 6) Pokemon 7) WWE 8) Golf 9) Spyware and 10) Britney Spears.

The caveat to this is that different search engines filter there "top request" lists in different ways and none of the other search engines report poker in the top ten.
