"How does Tinder work?" Top Dutch Google searches for 2014

At the end of each year Google compiles lists of popular search queries for each country based on the more than 3 billion worldwide queries the search engine handles every day. The most asked question in the Netherlands is "How does Tinder work?". Google released the top 10 lists of four categories: How does it work, search terms, personalities and most searched images. The fastest rising search terms in combination with "How does ..... work?" are "How does Tinder work?" and "How does wifi work?". The fastest rising search terms are WK 2014 (World Cup 2014) and Utopia. The fastest rising personalities national are Sven Kramer and Ilse de Lange. And the most searched images are of Ariana Grande and the iPhone 6. Google did not specify how often the terms in the lists were searched, in which time period they were popular or who searched the terms. But some of the terms can easily be guessed. For instance, the question "how does baking paper work?" (number 6 in the how does it work category) was probably linked to the culinary knockout Heel Holland Bakt and "Robin Williams" (number 6 terms) was probably most search around the time of his death.
