Google Current was a five-minute-long television program that aired every half hour on Current TV from 2005 to 2007. Selected episodes were also available on the Internet. The series tracked not necessarily what the news was but what people were searching for on Google.
The show was the first ever show aired on Current TV when the network went on the air at 12:00am on August 1, 2005.
Each episode had a one or two word title, based on one of the websites or search terms highlighted. The top-of-the-hour segments used live hosts, while the middle-of-the-hour segments are presented with text, graphics and music. The hosted segments focus on searches (which may or may not be related) that have recently seen increased popularity. Meanwhile, the segments at half past the hour looked at the top five searches featuring a certain word; for example, the top five "twins" searches included the Olsen twins and the Minnesota Twins.
As of July 10, 2007, the hosted segments of Google Current in the United States no longer aired. The same staff later produces InfoMania on Current TV. The UK continued to run its own version which was filmed daily in London until the end of 2008.
