Maria Sharapova just won herself a new title and she didn't have to do a darn thing!

She is 2012's most "Bing"-ed athlete!

The 25-year-old tennis star not only was the most searched for female athlete on the Microsoft search engine, she was the number four overall searched athlete on Bing.

Why was she searched so much??

We were REALLY excited when we first heard about this…until we realized that it's missing one key feature: the ability to erase unwanted/embarrassing search results.

Here's what Google had to say about their new tool Me on the Web:

Google is making traveling easier with the click of a button!

Now when you search a destination, Google will reveal which airlines serve that specific route and when they fly.

In the example above, we searched "Flights from Los Angeles to Las Vegas" and were greeted with an abundant amount of options available through June 2.

Tabs allow the list to be specified by non-stop flights to the destination, as well as any destination from that airport. Pretty nifty, right?

This is only a taste of what's to come too because the company has apparently spent $700 million on travel search software developer ITA Software, which hasn't even come into play yet.

We can't wait to see what else Google has up their sleeves in the coming months!

Did U like the new flight schedule feature the search engine has provided?

Nutrition just got easier!

A new startup recipe search engine called Foodily will determine the nutrition information for almost any recipe on the internet.

You can also search for specific types of food you want (i.e. “low fat,” “low carb,” “high fiber,” etc.)

All of the data comes from USDA’s nutritional database, so you know it’s legit.

This is for real awesome! Making smart food choices will be way easier!

Oh, those hipsters! Always trying to go against convention! LOLz!

While many would assume that most of the aloof, disinterested and anti-mainstream subculture's capital would be the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn, NY, a recent on-line poll tracking which states have the most collective on-line search volume for the term "hipster" may suggest otherwise!

Check out the top ten most hipster heavy states - you know, until they read this and then move somewhere else so no one thinks that they're a stereotype…AFTER THE JUMP!

Well, we knew that already, but he's REALLY smart!

Simon Cowell is rumored to have hired an SEO firm that places positive stories about the former American Idol judge at the top of search engine results!

Supposedly critics of Cowell are having a hard time finding their work via a search engine and it's assumed that an SEO firm is behind the mystery.

For example Hans Ebert wrote a scathing blog about Cowell and it was "de-activated" by his blog host for violating the "Terms of Condition."

After 12 hours the blog was reinstated and after Ebert did some research, the trail led to "an SEO company out of Bangalore, who is hired by a company based out of London to 'monitor' news of a few 'name personalities.'"

Shady!

Cowell's spokeswoman says the story isn't true, but experts think SEO firm Reputation Management Consultants are behind it.

We may have to look into doing this, too!

Ha!

Update: A rep for Cowell tells us, "None of us, including Simon, have even heard of this company or that guy's blog. Simon knows if he gives criticism out he will get it back - and he encourages that when its right - always has done".
