I dont know if many of you know about this, but its something I check every month and think its some interesting stuff. **Google Zeitgeist - Search patterns, trends, and surprises according to Google** [http://www.google.com/press/zeitgeist.html](http://www.google.com/press/zeitgeist.html) nothing too surprising for september, but something to keep in mind as november rolls in and the new october stats come in. … actually, october probably wont be too interesting either. We’ll see 😉 nonetheless, the OS and browser stats are interesting. Most of the world is seemingly on IE 6 (big surprise) and only 3% of google users are on a Mac. basic stats stuff. Thought Id throw it out there for anyone interested. ---

As a mac user, the right-click concept is foreign to him 😉 That is something they could use in the explorer shell though, a key command for a new folder. ---
