And there is a rhythm to the way we search.
We see similar things being searched at the same times of day or even the same times of the year.
Like people learn how to play piano in December, for instance, just before the Christmas holidays.
And we see this with tons of things around the ways we live our lives.
Yes, absolutely.
And you'd expect that.
There's some stuff you'd expect.
Obviously, you know, your property and your lives are at risk.
But one search we saw was the spike in searches for how to calm a dog in a storm.
And I love that search so much because it's incredibly human.
It shows that even in this moment of peril, you know, we're searching to take care of the things that matter most to us.
So basically, this is all based on Google Trends data, which is a tool, a public tool anybody can use.
It's the world's biggest publicly accessible data set at trends.google.com.
All of the data on there is anonymous, and it's not individual searches at all.
What you're seeing are big trends, so they have to be searched by a reasonable number of people.
and there's a lot of privacy restrictions and stuff, so they would prevent individual searches being surfaced at all.
And it doesn't go below city level, so you might be able to see searches for Dublin, say, but that would be it.
And so I think it's an incredibly powerful data set because we want to understand humanity and humans and the ways we think, and the fact that it's all publicly available I think is really important.
I think it's okay.
I think that the fact that there are more searches than before says to me that we're becoming more curious.
