Another insight into Google

I never cease to be amazed by the power of Google. In this case, it's the Insight facility, which allows one to look at what people have searched for, by date or period, by country and/or sub-region of said country! To have a play with this, go to the Google Insight Search page and, well, play! It's good fun and it's free - and possibly quite scary! Tell me what you think.

Turning to yesterday's posts, I'd like to thank everyone for the various emails and other supportive responses. For some reason I'm reminded of a Tony Hancock sketch from the 60's. Tony was acting the role of an aircraft mechanic who was servicing a plane when it took off with him clinging to the outside of the cockpit, yelling blue murder. The pilot (Sid James or Kenneth Williams?) pulls the canopy back and asks "Where's your stiff upper lip?" "Under this loose flabby chin!", came the response.

No-one commented on the fish-tank, or realised that by holding the mouse over the tank you can get the fish to swim towards it. You can even click the spanner to change the number and colour of the fishes! This is a one example of many 'gadgets' which can be attached to a blog, but perhaps you're all too busy to play with the fish. I won't bother to switch them for Soduku...
