Google trends: where people interested in social network analysis are

Neat tool in google shows you trends for particular search terms. This tool also shows you which locations search for the term most often. Interestingly, when one tries "social network" AND Cambridge is number one on the list (Boston is number 6; in between are Seoul, Pleasanton (CA), Washington DC, and San Francisco). Unfortunately, it's not clear what the Y axis is, and the methodology underlying the numbers is too opaque (currently) for research use, but perhaps that might change in the future.
