Presidential Election 2.0 - Picking Winners With Google Trends
Picking Winners With Google Trends
Published: Jun 9, 08

Google Trends lets you see the relative popularity of different search terms in graph form. TechCrunch brings up an interesting point - can the search terms of the pre-election masses predict our next President? I remember hearing something about a search engine being able to accurately predict the outcome of American Idol. Why not apply this seem technique to see our future commander-in-chief?
