Hello all, maybe many of you know this google tool already, but for those who don't, I think it is pretty interesting. They named it Zeitgeist ("Etymology: German, from Zeit (time) + Geist (spirit) | Date: 1884 | Meaning: the general intellectual, moral, and cultural climate of an era"): http://www.google.com/press/zeitgeist.html Basically it gives you the most popular queries by week/month, highlighting searching trends. There is also the possibility to search specific trends between countries to note cultural differences if any: http://www.google.com/press/intl-zeitgeist.html. As I said, I find it very fascinating.
