Here's an interesting new Google tool (Google Trends) put to the test. The following link compares searches for Intelligent Design to Evolution searches. It also compares the frequency of news stories related to these terms. According to this Intelligent Design falls far short of Evolution in terms of interest.

I'll guess most (all?) ID stories also relates to Evolution.

Yeah, Starman, but Google Trends is also going by search keywords, not just keywords in news articles. Thing to note is that just going by the news stories, Intelligent Design "won" at points B, D and E.

A Googlefight, on the other hand...
