Has anyone else seen this yet? You just type one (or more) words (separated by a comma) and it shows you the popularity of it being used in literature.
Its a decent time waster but is supposed to be used for educational purposes I guess.

I love this thing. I don't know what I love more - knowing how much more consistently popular dogs are vs cats, or when tofu overtook hot dogs as culturally relevant, or being able to measure cheese against Tourette's.

Context is everything. Maybe dogs are mentioned more often because they're unpopular?

So we try a quadruplet digram "hate dogs,love cats,hate cats,love dogs" to get a slightly better sense of what's going on.

You may be right after all. But something weird happened to doggy love in the 1940s and 1950s.
