ITER, cold fusion

[Gokul43201]

Very interesting regional data on some of those. But it's not clear how they do the normalization...

 

[Rach3]

Yeah, it seems Pakistan is always #1 in everything...

moving on:

diplomacy, war

Looks like American English is getting more pervasive than Brit English.

Look at the relative numbers in Asia and Aurope; it's close even in England and Ireland.

And strangely, 'minimize' trumps 'minimise' even in England and Ireland. It's only the Aussies and Kiwis that're still holding out !

PS : They're talking about this right now on the radio (specifically the regional distribution of the 'sex' search).

Am I missing something here? When I looked at the regional distribution, both the UK and Ireland have more in maximiSe than in maximiZe

Interesting how four of the top five are predominately Islam, in addition to in those countries a very small amount of people have internet access at their leisure.

Interesting how Leonhard Euler is immortal and Brad Pitt won't be remembered of in only ten years.

I wonder how they do the normalization.

They just get rid of the abnormalness, duh.
