Zeitgeist: "the intellectual fashion or dominant school of thought that typifies and influences the culture of a particular period of time" - Wikipedia
I am absolutely in love with Google's Zeitgeist project. Like, in love. I just think it is the coolest. The data they have is probably the most global that I can think of. Now granted, I don't really know much about anything in the tech world, but I'm all about the human story. It just reminds me about how much bigger the world is.
I mean it doesn't hurt that Google showcases the success of the year, but it is honestly inspiring and comforting to me, to see these, with all the awful things you hear about in the news day in and day out.
Admitedly, the more current ones work a little better, but I admire the project, and think it is a new way of writing history.
