...this year Twitter was the big winner. The social-networking site was the fastest-rising search query, beating out Web rivals Facebook (No. 3) and Hulu (No. 4) for the top spot.

But more and more are coming to visit: more than 45,000 tourists visited Antarctica during its most recent summer, and on average about 30,000 visitors flock to the frigid continent each year. Trips don't come cheap: a round-trip ticket - most likely by cruise ship - to the bottom of the earth can cost between $5,000 and $10,000.
