What we learned from 5 million books
wie Sie tun, machen, Film, Beispiel
http://www.ted.com Have you played with Google Labs' NGram Viewer? It's an addicting tool that lets you search for words and ideas in a database of 5 million books from across centuries. Erez Lieberman Aiden and Jean-Baptiste Michel show us how it works, and a few of the surprising things we can learn from 500 billion words. TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes. Featured speakers have included Al Gore on climate change, Philippe Starck on design, Jill Bolte Taylor on observing her own stroke, Nicholas Negroponte on One Laptop per Child, Jane Goodall on chimpanzees, Bill Gates on malaria and mosquitoes, Pattie Maes on the "Sixth Sense" wearable tech, and "Lost" producer JJ Abrams on the allure of mystery. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, and TEDTalks cover these topics as well as science, business, development and the arts. Closed captions and translated subtitles in a variety of languages are now available on TED.com, at http://www.ted.com/translate.

guy with a goatee is being fake. I wish he'd show off a little less. The other guy is much cooler and easy on the eyes and easier on the ears too as compared to the other jabbering yapper.

So much knowledge In so many books, by so many smart people of history. People just waste their time by doing useless things in their life, rather then reading something that will change their life. Successful people know the key to success and that's knowledge. And that's why I decided to write a book to motivate people to read: ,,Investing in books: How reading can make you money". It's about thinking about books in revolutionary way - as an investment which will make you money in long run.

Fun talk. These guys are really funny!

Culture is a waste of time.
If a specific piece of knowledge isnt true, includes known bias, or doesnt have the slightest of applicable benefit, it should not be distributed. But instead we automatically accept tradition and art as something which should be cherished. Think of all the wasted time and resources. -
They make this so insanely funny. Ngrams are great. They tell us so much about ourselves.

@gmagee They used the 5 million books as a representative sample of lexicon over time. Theoretically, the same frequencies would occur on websites as in the books of the same time period.
