Google Trends represents a new service offered by Google which allow you to compare the world's interest in your favourite topics. By example we have entered four topics: eHealth, Telemedicine, Medical Informatics and Health Informatics in order to identify how often they've been searched for on Google over time. |
Google Trends also displays how frequently your topics have appeared in Google News stories, and which geographic regions have searched for them most often.
The obtained results will not be discussed or analysed, please just pay attention that eHealth term become more and more popular during the last months.
You can compare up to five terms by separating each term with a comma. To compare trend info for "ehealth" and "telemedicine" for example, you'd simply enter "ehealth, telemedicine" and click on "Search Trends."
You are encouraged to use this service but please note the bellow Google statement "As a Google Labs product, it is still in the early stages of development. Also, it is based upon just a portion of our searches, and several approximations are used when computing your results."
