    According to the link, Dublin is mainly obsessed with Balayage Hair. I have never heard of this. I am sure it is popular, but I doubt that it is what is obsessing the capital the most.

    “The method was simple. By typing ‘how much does * cost’ for each location, we put together a list of the predictions that filled the blank. Google’s autocomplete feature is based on an algorithm reflecting, among other factors, the number of times a term has been searched for in the past.”

    Well that’s your problem right there. You’ll get different autocomplete answers based on your geographic position. My number one hit for Dublin is botox, followed by a pint. Presumably not a pint of botox.

      It’s also dependent on whether you’re signed into your Gmail account. Nonsense research.

      I got an abortion, a liposuction and a passport. Not sure what Google is implying I do.

      Came here to say that. So this is what people in london (presumably) search for in all of those places.

      a) Scarcely likely to be true. “How much does * cost in” followed by Armagh, Cavan, Clones, etc comes up with no result.

      b) How much does a basic knowledge of geography cost in London?

    People in that large area of reclaimed land off the coast of Galway and Clare are obsessed with driving lessons. It’s all they talk about now they have land to drive on.
