Tennessee is curious about ISIS, Mississippi wants Flappy Bird cheats

As the end of the year is just around the corner, lots of information about what about who searched for what online is becoming available, and real estate blog Estately decided to see what each state searched for more than any other.

To be clear, these are not the top searches for each state but the searches each state made more than any other.

Texas and Oklahoma searched for information about Ebola. Californians wanted to know about Bitcoin.

So what did states in the Mid-South search for?

In Arkansas users searched for information about former Gov. Mike Huckabee and "Dancing with the Stars." Understandably, Missourians looked for information about Ferguson and NFL player Michael Sam. Alabama wanted information about Florida State Seminoles quarterback Jameis Winston.

Mississippi's searches were an eclectic mix, with the number one search being "Flappy Bird cheat" and other top searches including Robin Thicke and wrestler the Ultimate Warrior.

Tennessee searched Google for the phrase "Who is I.S.I.S.?" more than any other state, and also took significant interest in country musician Kevin Sharp.
