> The Linux landscape is constantly changing and has a strong community of
> both developers and users. But where is Linux the most popular, and where
> are the different Linux distributions the most popular?
>
> To try to answer these questions, we have looked at data from Google with
> the highly useful Insights for Search, which gave us a number of interesting
> and often surprising results.
>
> Aside from just looking at Linux itself, we have included eight common
> Linux distributions in this survey: Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, Fedora, Debian, Red
> Hat, Mandriva, Slackware and Gentoo.
>
> .....................................................
>
> *Some interesting observations*:
>
>     * Ubuntu is most popular in Italy and Cuba.
>     * OpenSUSE is most popular in Russia and the Czech Republic.
>     * Red Hat is most popular in Bangladesh and Nepal.
>     * Debian is most popular in Cuba.
>     * Cuba is in the top five (interest-wise) of three of the eight
> distributions in this survey.
>     * Indonesia is in the top five of four of the distributions.
>     * Russia and the Czech Republic are in the top five of five of the
> distributions.
>     * The United States is not in the top five of any of the distributions.
>
> Note again that when we say "popular" here, we mean how popular the search
> term is. After all, this is based on Google search data.
