True, true. But its stronger than me ;-)
Yo, dawg, I heard you like making Racket about programming, so I put some Racket programming in yo' Google so our TIOBE index can grow while we spam ;-)) -----Original Message----- From: users-boun...@racket-lang.org [mailto:users-boun...@racket-lang.org] On Behalf Of Joe Marshall Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2012 2:27 AM To: John Clements Cc: Racket-users Users Subject: Re: [racket] Racket Google Hits On Sun, Jan 8, 2012 at 10:09 AM, John Clements <cleme...@brinckerhoff.org> wrote: > Many people have better things to do than worry about our rank in the TIOBE > programming languages index. The `number of results' printed for a Google query is an extraordinarily poor approximation (it is not much better than a random number). You can get far more interesting and useful results from using the Insights for Search tool: http://www.google.com/insights/search/#cat=0-5-31&q=racket%2Cdrscheme&date=1%2F2010%2024m&cmpt=q I'm not sure that popularity is a useful measure of technology. I'm not sure that `number of searches' is a good proxy for popularity. I'm not sure that the relative number of pages in the Google index is a good proxy for anything. What the TIOBE index therefore measures (if it is indeed a measurement of anything at all) is beyond me. -- ~jrm ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
