Using Google as a stethoscope – get a pulse on how people feel
Posted by Z on March 2nd, 2010 -
Given much of my time is spent thinking about healthcare and information, tonight I decided to try to see what I could learn about the health of those around the world using information provided by Google. The main question I wanted some insight into was what feelings people have where they don’t know why they have those feelings. I got some interesting results (see below) – they seem to be signs of the times. Your thoughts?
