    Google Trends

    Google has a new feature called Google Trends. It charts the frequency of search words or phrases as entered in different nations and languages by users since 2004, and ranks cities' entries accordingly. The results can be both confirmation of, and contrary to, regional and cultural stereotypes.

    For instance, I could type in "counterfeit money", and here would be the Top 10 cities that searched for that on Google:


    1. Toronto, Canada
    2. Miami, FL, USA
    3. Vancouver, Canada
    4. Philadelphia, PA, USA
    5. Houston, TX, USA
    6. Los Angeles, CA, USA
    7. Atlanta, GA, USA
    8. San Francisco, CA, USA
    9. Chicago, IL, USA
    10. Washington, DC, USA


    Sorry, Sportsman.


    I thought it was pretty interesting. It's fun to look at stuff, and the cities/regions that look this stuff up the most. I'm not going to let "gay porn" get in my history tank, though... so Tyler can help me out with that.

            Now that I know what it stands for, I'm glad I didn't know what NAMBLA meant...

            Oh, and as a result I unfortunately added to the Philly count!
