In consonance with the International Women's Day celebration last March 8, 2011, Google Philippines have came out with the last year's "Top 20 List of Most Influential Filipino Women" with "greatest online mind share in 2010". Google is the widely-used Internet search engine in the whole world. The basis of the "influence" was based on the queries of the searchers through Google's search tool.
I was very surprised to learn that Shalani Soledad came in as number one.

Valenzuela Councilor Shalani Soledad became famous when she supported her then boyfriend Senator Noynoy Aquino who ran and won for President last year. Months after election, Shalani and PNoy broke up. She is now a co-host of Willie Revillame's Willing Willie on TV5.

Next in the list is the sister of Shalani's ex- boyfriend, "The Queen of Media", Ms. Kris Aquino. She made a noise when she and her Basketball Star husband, James Yap lived apart after trying to save their marriage many times. The annulment of their marriage is on going as of this moment.

I'm surprised that Shalani is on the topspot. I also searched for her in Google last year because I was curious of who she was and what she looked like. It doesn't mean I'd go where she goes LOL!
