Google Trends for FIRST

[generalbrando]

Take a look at Google Trends for "FIRST Robotics" and you'll see some very distinct lines show up. It's no surpise, but it's really cool to see how evident the seasonality of FIRST is.

Here's a link

personally i like the geographic break down

1.Richmond United States - Lavery's house is using a ton of bandwidth

2.Rochester United States -someone needs to tell koko to settle down

3.Portland United States - The PRN planning committee really does alot with their 56k modems

4.Atlanta United States - free wireless internet at hotels during the championship...nuff said

5.Orlando United States - they still keep tabs on FIRST at epcot

6.San Francisco United States- Ken L where in cali are you from?

7.Philadelphia United States- Ah the city of roboticly Love

8.Boston United States - Woody's class is actually called "search for FIRST on google"

9.Houston United States - In width drawl sine 2003

10.Toronto Canada- All hits from the search string "Karthik singing FIRST robotics"

OK well this isn't on the same lines as the previous posts, but you know how dell has their own Google home page I think one should be instated for FIRST, with the FIRST bulletin Board and more

On the other side of the fence though... FIRST vs. robot wars.

Firehox has one too. But why wait for Google to make a Google FIRST homepage when you can do it yourself?

If you go to www.google.com/ig and log in, you can click on the "Add Content" button on the top left, you can add RSS / XML feeds from ChiefDelphi, CD Media, and the FIRST Forums into your personal Google homepage. This way, you get Google, ChiefDelphi / CD Media, and FIRST Forums all on one page. Voila - instant FIRSTified homepage!
