Correlations

The Freakonomics Blog just made me aware of Google's Correlations site, so I typed in "finding an architect".  As it happens, that search best follows the data for "homes in Maryland"... but who cares?  What I found fascinating/horrifying was the plunge in searches for architects between 2003 and 2011! Ouch.

Freakonomics and its new sequel are fascinating reads.  And there's even a documentary!
