After delving into where in the world people seem most
keen on Linux, I couldn’t resist taking the research into Google
Insights a bit further and seeing what trends were visible on the

over time.The results were not terribly surprising after the first round
of research into popular Linux search terms: in terms of
desktop-oriented distributions, Ubuntu has been historically the
highest trendsetter, according to Google Insights.
