Google Ngram

Here is an interesting little tool courtesy of Google Labs. Plug in a keyword, or several keywords, and google searches the text of some 5 million books. The result is plotted as a frequency versus any time period you choose.

In the chart below, I have plotted radio (blue), television (red) and some newfangled thing called internet(green).

Thanks to The Big Picture for the heads up.
