10 Things I Learnt on Google Trends
Google used to do a zietgiest thing that was very cool, but they tapped into all that data and let us search it (after all if you are going to organise the worlds data that includes your own right?) They called this: Google Trends. Well, as the net knows all… I thought I’d see what it tells me.
I give you 10 things I learnt on Google Trends:
Retro: VH1 was right: Everyone loves the 80’s.
Politics: The Democrats are only marginally more interesting that The Republicans but Labour still can’t fail to be more interesting than The Conservatives
Browsers: Firefox destroys all before it, IE and Safari are tied for last, but Dublin still loves IE more than is probably healthy.
Nationality: The UK kicks the USA’s arse!
Web: Blog is the new Website and, despite a lot of marketing, no-one really cares about ASP - they want PHP.
Knowledge: Mexico loves Encarta, but Wikipedia beats everyone.
Music: Britany Spears star is at last finally fading, but Australia wishes it wasn’t.
and finally? Well my ass beats your ass. I know, don’t cry too much.

Actually,
I think the “Britany Spears” trend suggests that us Australians can’t spell nearly as well as the old spanish colonies. They love Britney!

Obivously google trends needs to be taken with a pinch of salt, but I think you need to be slightly more spacial when comparing two or more entities
