Scott,

RPG appears to be on a huge upswing. Any one know why?


Because when you start with a small number and grow to another number still
under 0.6%, it can look like a tremendous rate of growth yielding a bunch of
up arrows in the delta column. What I find interesting is the fact the
upswing happened the same month they added -role to the query for RPG to
drop out false hits on role playing games and it still had a "huge" upswing.

It is also interesting it is marginally higher than COBOL now, and that even
CL made the top 50.

It also appears the ratings are based on search ratings from Google, MSN,
Yahoo, and YouTube. In the specific case of RPG and CL, one has to wonder
if that how skewed that is because people directly search sites like these
archives (or just ask without searching...).

Maybe if all of us do a Google search on RPG twice a day for the next month,
we can have another big upswing. :)
