Is it just me, or is google trends to a first approximation just reporting what has recently been on TV? I found the trends an interesting idea to begin with, but seriously, more and more it looks like a very high-tech method for figuring out what was shown on TV a few minutes ago. I guess broadcast media can really push a fraction of the nation’s consciousness around.
