Paris Hilton, you little search engine vixen, you. You just seem to be popping up all over the Web, and I just can't think why...it's escaping me...huh. Well, anyway - I came up with a new superhappy fun acronym today, and that is WWPHSF, or What Would Paris Hilton Search For? Here's what I think everyone's favorite blonde socialite/media hog would search for on the Web:

• Best Shopping Search Engines: Duh. This one's a no-brainer.
• Top 10 Audio Search Engines-BitTorrent Search Engines, Free Movie Downloads, Videos: Paris Hilton is unfortunately quite familiar with the power of free movie downloads on the Web..and I'm just going to leave it at that (takin' the high road for Christmas!).
• Google Cheat Sheet: Well, you never know. Paris Hilton might very well be a Master Googler and hides this fact behind a mask of shopping and boyfriends and okay, it's a stretch. Let's try...
• Top 10 Free People Search Engines-: Because boyfriends (apparently) have an extremely short shelf life and Paris must have access to a rapidly widening pool of talent for her newest arm candy.
