Patronus Analytical, a blog covering security issues facing NGOs and other humanitarian organizations operating in dangerous environments, has used Google Trends to compare interest in Darfur, Afghanistan, Beer, and Breakfast. The results are interesting, sad, and all-too-predictable. Of course, in my previous post comparing Iraq, economy, health care, and taxes, I used BlogPulse and IceRocket. Looks I will have to add Google Trends to the buzz tracking toolbox. One of Patronus Analytical’s charts is pasted after the jump.
