For the course of a one-week period, don’t go on the internet before midnight. Before doing anything else on the web, analyse the Google Trends for the top 100 search terms for that day.
If you heard anyone in real life - NOT ON THE WEB - say those terms or something closely related to those terms, mark that phrase down in a spread-sheet and make a note of who you heard it from and where you heard it.
At the end of your test time period (a month might work better), look over your spreadsheet and look for trends in the data transmission patterns. That is, did one person or one source (for example, your workplace) yield relatively higher numbers of the references which also appeared on Google Trends for that day? Can any conclusions or theories be made based on your data? Explain.
