Ever wondered what people are searching in India, Googletrends provides an insights of what people are searching on Google most.
The search data on Google trends definitely provides some
value in what people are thinking and if we apply some mechanic towards
analysis of this data, days aren’t far away when Google would be the next 'Crystal
ball’
For example notice the snapshot of 'Google trends ‘in Indiawhich has 'Ebola' as one of the top searches in India, which clearly identifies
the early stages of a potential outbreak of a Flue in India. Not to mention appropriate
analysis needs to be done before we can come to a conclusion.
However on the flip side there are examples where Google
searches could predict how a Bollywood movie premier'Singham Returns' would do on the opening
day by comparing it with the number of search for that movie trailer in the
four weeks before its release.
I guess its journey where now atleast we have a tool to analysis 'Collect Human thinking' and predict ‘Human Mind’. See study by
