Ubuntu Continues to Ride the Linux Train

Linked by Eugenia Loli-Queru on Sat 4th Aug 2007 20:57 UTC

Google Trends recently updated their online "popularity" meter and Ubuntu remains the clear No1 Linux distro in terms of search trend. Fedora and Debian seem to be battling for the second position, while SuSE had a small "trend" loss in the 3rd place. Then, we find Gentoo, Mandriva, then Red Hat and Kubuntu. While this trend meter is not an official Linux distro market/mind share, it's considered a pretty good approximation. Meanwhile, Fedora seems more strong in USA, while SuSE in Europe.

Well for example a lot of those people could be searching for "Ubuntu graphics problems".

So, in this case, they are probably interested in making it work properly. So they are interested in ubuntu and probably using it. So, the statistics are right! Aren't they?
