Snowboarding
On Google and Snowboarding
The 2005 year end Google Zeitgeist
is out. The Zeitgeist aggregates the billions of searches performed on
Google each year, and lists trends and statistics within that data.
It’s always a fun read, as it provides a barometer for trends that took
off, news that was of interest to a wide range of audiences, and more.
So what does this have to do with snowboarding? From the “Phenomena” section of the 2005 year-end Zeitgeist:
“Snowboarding, a newer phenomenon than the other two [surfing and
skateboarding], shows a distinctly seasonal pattern – after all, it’s
most effective when there’s snow. But regardless of geography or
season, each adrenaline pumper has its own partisans and plenty of
search interest.”
It seems like a lot of Google’s snowboarding search volume is seasonal
- moreso than skateboarding and surfing, anyway. But those winter
volumes appear to be similar to the other sports, so that’s a good sign.
