The people whose job titles end in “ologist” are usually on the far end of the social spectrum and I think we know which end I’m talking about. Marina Orlova is the proverbial “exception” to that rule. She is a philologist and she was Wired Magazines 2007, Sexiest Geek of the Year! What’s a philologist? - it’s someone who studies linguistics and etymology.

Marina made her debut on YouTube in February 2007 where she has since then, become the most watched channel on ALL of YouTube (at the time of this post, she had 110,075,496 video views). She posts about 5-7 videos a week, hosts a bi-weekly radio show on Maxim Radio, has been on the Bill O’Reilly Factor Show - twice, and is currently writing a book.

I can't believe none of us had ever posted about this before. She's been one of the top YouTube channels forever and the whole concept seems hilarious...

Goodness, I wasn't aware of this article. It didn't show up in related trends even though I typed in her first and last name. Would the one I posted a few minutes ago be considered a dupe?

Haha, Bianca, now this is a bit more exciting than the Dictionary.com word of the day, no?

This is too weird. During lunch today my son said, "Mom, do you guys write about internet sites?" I said yes, "If they're cool." He said, "You have to write about this one I found on Saturday!" He showed it to me, I do a related trends search and nothing showed up so I write and then find this. Oh well. :-)

---Except mine was on hot internet teachers and not about her search statistics.
