Play with the Search Globe here. You will need a modern browser and probably a non-sucky computer.

Perhaps the best thing that came out of this announcement is the discovery that Google has a Data Arts Team.

    Looks like Miami is #2 after NY in the US, all the retirees with nothing to do?

    All searches in India look like they’re in English, by contrast only a few specs of English searches in the Philippines, they both have English as a second lang

    I don’t see any Spanish searches in the US, surprising

    The searches in Iran all seem to be English, thats funny

    North Koreans don’t seem to have any curiosity LOL

    Russia has a bunch of English searches, probably the internet scammers there lining up their targets

    I’d be interested in seeing the numbers or perhaps a simple flat map. I can’t figure out charts like that. I’m never sure I’m compensating for the 3D effects correctly. (I used to work at a remote sensing company and know that people will pay good money to get rid of 3D artifacts so they can figure out what is going on.)
