What you search in Google tells a lot about your current state. What your community searches tell a lot about that community. With this information, can we conclude that data of searches from Google may tell us substantial information about the state of a community?
Some health agencies think so, for a new model using Google searches to create a database of flu outbreaks in the United States is now out. It's called Google Flu Trends.
