The Truth About Tattoos
Let's face this tattoo thing head on.
The truth is, tattoos are astoundingly popular online. We knew they were a hot item -- and hey, what else do Winston Churchill and Pamela Anderson have in common? -- but we wouldn't have guessed tattoos would be in the top 20 of the Lycos 50 nearly every week. What's everyone looking for?
Here's one hot term: tattoo flash. Flash is the clip art of the tattoo world -- the stock designs you see hanging on the wall of a parlor. Seems the Web has become an easy place for artists to post and trade flash, and for tattoo-ees to find possible designs for their very own scapula.
Among the individual designs certain definite themes show up. (And wouldn't Jung have a field day if he could see what we were inking on our bodies in the year 2000?) Last week the most-requested tattoo styles were:
Tribal tattoos
Dragon tattoos
Butterfly tattoos
Sun tattoos
Chinese tattoos
Japanese tattoos
Celtic tattoos
Flower tattoos

And finally, to answer the question you're probably wondering about: we get very few queries for tattoo removal. Last week removals accounted for only 0.4% of all user tattoo queries.
