    Google Trends: Ubuntu suddenly way more popular

    Great news. Check out google trends for the search term "ubuntu":
    http://www.google.com/trends?q=ubunt...ate=all&sort=0



    Ubuntu has gradually become more popular over time, and experienced a small boost after each release. However this time it experienced a huge boost. Is Gutsy (7.10) going to greatly enhance Ubuntu's user base?

    Also, compare this to our competitors:

    We are blowing other distros away! (especially PCLinuxOS)

    Windows Vista seems to have stopped gaining ground, and we're ahead.

    I think it will die down and go back on its steady rise, like it has all the previous times. Each release has had a boost bigger than the last release's boost.

    You're right, I changed the title by going into advanced.

    I remember using Google way back in 2000. I liked it because it was the only search engine with no ads.

    considering text relevent ads are their biggest revenue, i don't mind them. as a matter of fact, i don't even notice them anymore. some of you cry about the stupidest things.

    Here's the google trends for google.
    http://www.google.com/trends?q=googl...ate=all&sort=0

    You'll notice a few minor dips but generally a steady increase. Now what gets me is not the increase but the fact that this data is based off googles search queries. So this means more and more people are using google to find... well google?
