The total amount of data created, captured, copied, and consumed globally is forecast to increase rapidly, reaching *** zettabytes in 2024. Over the next five years up to 2028, global data creation is projected to grow to more than *** zettabytes. In 2020, the amount of data created and replicated reached a new high. The growth was higher than previously expected, caused by the increased demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as more people worked and learned from home and used home entertainment options more often. Storage capacity also growing Only a small percentage of this newly created data is kept though, as just * percent of the data produced and consumed in 2020 was saved and retained into 2021. In line with the strong growth of the data volume, the installed base of storage capacity is forecast to increase, growing at a compound annual growth rate of **** percent over the forecast period from 2020 to 2025. In 2020, the installed base of storage capacity reached *** zettabytes.

The COVID-19 Search Trends symptoms dataset shows aggregated, anonymized trends in Google searches for a broad set of health symptoms, signs, and conditions. The dataset provides a daily or weekly time series for each region showing the relative volume of searches for each symptom. This dataset is intended to help researchers to better understand the impact of COVID-19. It shouldn't be used for medical diagnostic, prognostic, or treatment purposes. It also isn't intended to be used for guidance on personal travel plans. To learn more about the dataset, how we generate it and preserve privacy, read the data documentation . To visualize the data, try exploring these interactive charts and map of symptom search trends . As of Dec. 15, 2020, the dataset was expanded to include trends for Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. This expanded data is available in new tables that provide data at country and two subregional levels. We will not be updating existing state/county tables going forward. All bytes processed in queries against this dataset will be zeroed out, making this part of the query free. Data joined with the dataset will be billed at the normal rate to prevent abuse. After September 15, queries over these datasets will revert to the normal billing rate. This public dataset is hosted in Google BigQuery and is included in BigQuery's 1TB/mo of free tier processing.

Cristiano Ronaldo has one of the most popular Instagram accounts as of April 2024.

              The Portuguese footballer is the most-followed person on the photo sharing app platform with 628 million followers. Instagram's own account was ranked first with roughly 672 million followers.

              How popular is Instagram?

              Instagram is a photo-sharing social networking service that enables users to take pictures and edit them with filters. The platform allows users to post and share their images online and directly with their friends and followers on the social network. The cross-platform app reached one billion monthly active users in mid-2018. In 2020, there were over 114 million Instagram users in the United States and experts project this figure to surpass 127 million users in 2023.

              Who uses Instagram?

              Instagram audiences are predominantly young – recent data states that almost 60 percent of U.S. Instagram users are aged 34 years or younger. Fall 2020 data reveals that Instagram is also one of the most popular social media for teens and one of the social networks with the biggest reach among teens in the United States.

              Celebrity influencers on Instagram
              Many celebrities and athletes are brand spokespeople and generate additional income with social media advertising and sponsored content. Unsurprisingly, Ronaldo ranked first again, as the average media value of one of his Instagram posts was 985,441 U.S. dollars.

This dataset contains a collection of around 2,000 HTML pages: these web pages contain the search results obtained in return to queries for different products, searched by a set of synthetic users surfing Google Shopping (US version) from different locations, in July, 2016.

Each file in the collection has a name where there is indicated the location from where the search has been done, the userID, and the searched product: no_email_LOCATION_USERID.PRODUCT.shopping_testing.#.html

The locations are Philippines (PHI), United States (US), India (IN). The userIDs: 26 to 30 for users searching from Philippines, 1 to 5 from US, 11 to 15 from India.

Products have been choice following 130 keywords (e.g., MP3 player, MP4 Watch, Personal organizer, Television, etc.).

In the following, we describe how the search results have been collected.

Each user has a fresh profile. The creation of a new profile corresponds to launch a new, isolated, web browser client instance and open the Google Shopping US web page.

To mimic real users, the synthetic users can browse, scroll pages, stay on a page, and click on links.

A fully-fledged web browser is used to get the correct desktop version of the website under investigation. This is because websites could be designed to behave according to user agents, as witnessed by the differences between the mobile and desktop versions of the same website.

The prices are the retail ones displayed by Google Shopping in US dollars (thus, excluding shipping fees).

Several frameworks have been proposed for interacting with web browsers and analysing results from search engines. This research adopts OpenWPM. OpenWPM is automatised with Selenium to efficiently create and manage different users with isolated Firefox and Chrome client instances, each of them with their own associated cookies.

The experiments run, on average, 24 hours. In each of them, the software runs on our local server, but the browser's traffic is redirected to the designated remote servers (i.e., to India), via tunneling in SOCKS proxies. This way, all commands are simultaneously distributed over all proxies. The experiments adopt the Mozilla Firefox browser (version 45.0) for the web browsing tasks and run under Ubuntu 14.04. Also, for each query, we consider the first page of results, counting 40 products. Among them, the focus of the experiments is mostly on the top 10 and top 3 results.

Due to connection errors, one of the Philippine profiles have no associated results. Also, for Philippines, a few keywords did not lead to any results: videocassette recorders, totes, umbrellas. Similarly, for US, no results were for totes and umbrellas.

The search results have been analyzed in order to check if there were evidence of price steering, based on users' location.

These are the top trending "How to" searches on Google, ranked by their spike value. Trending searches are searches with the biggest increase in search interest since the previous time period. Data covers the past 5 years.

This dataset was extracted for a study on the evolution of Web search engine interfaces since their appearance. The well-known list of “10 blue links” has evolved into richer interfaces, often personalized to the search query, the user, and other aspects. We used the most searched queries by year to extract a representative sample of SERP from the Internet Archive. The Internet Archive has been keeping snapshots and the respective HTML version of webpages over time and tts collection contains more than 50 billion webpages. We used Python and Selenium Webdriver, for browser automation, to visit each capture online, check if the capture is valid, save the HTML version, and generate a full screenshot. The dataset contains all the extracted captures. Each capture is represented by a screenshot, an HTML file, and a files' folder. We concatenate the initial of the search engine (G) with the capture's timestamp for file naming. The filename ends with a sequential integer "-N" if the timestamp is repeated. For example, "G20070330145203-1" identifies a second capture from Google by March 30, 2007. The first is identified by "G20070330145203". Using this dataset, we analyzed how SERP evolved in terms of content, layout, design (e.g., color scheme, text styling, graphics), navigation, and file size. We have registered the appearance of SERP features and analyzed the design patterns involved in each SERP component. We found that the number of elements in SERP has been rising over the years, demanding a more extensive interface area and larger files. This systematic analysis portrays evolution trends in search engine user interfaces and, more generally, web design. We expect this work will trigger other, more specific studies that can take advantage of the dataset we provide here. This graphic represents the diversity of captures by year and search engine (Google and Bing).

We present Qbias, two novel datasets that promote the investigation of bias in online news search as described in

Fabian Haak and Philipp Schaer. 2023. 𝑄𝑏𝑖𝑎𝑠 - A Dataset on Media Bias in Search Queries and Query Suggestions. In Proceedings of ACM Web Science Conference (WebSci’23). ACM, New York, NY, USA, 6 pages. https://doi.org/10.1145/3578503.3583628.

Dataset 1: AllSides Balanced News Dataset (allsides_balanced_news_headlines-texts.csv)

The dataset contains 21,747 news articles collected from AllSides balanced news headline roundups in November 2022 as presented in our publication. The AllSides balanced news feature three expert-selected U.S. news articles from sources of different political views (left, right, center), often featuring spin bias, and slant other forms of non-neutral reporting on political news. All articles are tagged with a bias label by four expert annotators based on the expressed political partisanship, left, right, or neutral. The AllSides balanced news aims to offer multiple political perspectives on important news stories, educate users on biases, and provide multiple viewpoints. Collected data further includes headlines, dates, news texts, topic tags (e.g., "Republican party", "coronavirus", "federal jobs"), and the publishing news outlet. We also include AllSides' neutral description of the topic of the articles. Overall, the dataset contains 10,273 articles tagged as left, 7,222 as right, and 4,252 as center.

To provide easier access to the most recent and complete version of the dataset for future research, we provide a scraping tool and a regularly updated version of the dataset at https://github.com/irgroup/Qbias. The repository also contains regularly updated more recent versions of the dataset with additional tags (such as the URL to the article). We chose to publish the version used for fine-tuning the models on Zenodo to enable the reproduction of the results of our study.

Dataset 2: Search Query Suggestions (suggestions.csv)

The second dataset we provide consists of 671,669 search query suggestions for root queries based on tags of the AllSides biased news dataset. We collected search query suggestions from Google and Bing for the 1,431 topic tags, that have been used for tagging AllSides news at least five times, approximately half of the total number of topics. The topic tags include names, a wide range of political terms, agendas, and topics (e.g., "communism", "libertarian party", "same-sex marriage"), cultural and religious terms (e.g., "Ramadan", "pope Francis"), locations and other news-relevant terms. On average, the dataset contains 469 search queries for each topic. In total, 318,185 suggestions have been retrieved from Google and 353,484 from Bing.

The file contains a "root_term" column based on the AllSides topic tags. The "query_input" column contains the search term submitted to the search engine ("search_engine"). "query_suggestion" and "rank" represents the search query suggestions at the respective positions returned by the search engines at the given time of search "datetime". We scraped our data from a US server saved in "location".

We retrieved ten search query suggestions provided by the Google and Bing search autocomplete systems for the input of each of these root queries, without performing a search. Furthermore, we extended the root queries by the letters a to z (e.g., "democrats" (root term) >> "democrats a" (query input) >> "democrats and recession" (query suggestion)) to simulate a user's input during information search and generate a total of up to 270 query suggestions per topic and search engine. The dataset we provide contains columns for root term, query input, and query suggestion for each suggested query. The location from which the search is performed is the location of the Google servers running Colab, in our case Iowa in the United States of America, which is added to the dataset.

AllSides Scraper

At https://github.com/irgroup/Qbias, we provide a scraping tool, that allows for the automatic retrieval of all available articles at the AllSides balanced news headlines.

We want to provide an easy means of retrieving the news and all corresponding information. For many tasks it is relevant to have the most recent documents available. Thus, we provide this Python-based scraper, that scrapes all available AllSides news articles and gathers available information. By providing the scraper we facilitate access to a recent version of the dataset for other researchers.

Experimental studies in the area of Psychology and Behavioral Economics have suggested that people change their search pattern in response to positive and negative events. Using Internet search data provided by Google, we investigated the relationship between stock-specific events and related Google searches. We studied daily data from 13 stocks from the Dow-Jones and NASDAQ100 indices, over a period of 4 trading years. Focusing on periods in which stocks were extensively searched (Intensive Search Periods), we found a correlation between the magnitude of stock returns at the beginning of the period and the volume, peak, and duration of search generated during the period. This relation between magnitudes of stock returns and subsequent searches was considerably magnified in periods following negative stock returns. Yet, we did not find that intensive search periods following losses were associated with more Google searches than periods following gains. Thus, rather than increasing search, losses improved the fit between people’s search behavior and the extent of real-world events triggering the search. The findings demonstrate the robustness of the attentional effect of losses.

Context

Google Patents Public Data, provided by IFI CLAIMS Patent Services, is a worldwide bibliographic and US full-text dataset of patent publications. Patent information accessibility is critical for examining new patents, informing public policy decisions, managing corporate investment in intellectual property, and promoting future scientific innovation. The growing number of available patent data sources means researchers often spend more time downloading, parsing, loading, syncing and managing local databases than conducting analysis. With these new datasets, researchers and companies can access the data they need from multiple sources in one place, thus spending more time on analysis than data preparation.

In an effort to help combat COVID-19, we created a COVID-19 Public Datasets program to make data more accessible to researchers, data scientists and analysts. The program will host a repository of public datasets that relate to the COVID-19 crisis and make them free to access and analyze. These include datasets from the New York Times, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, Google, Global Health Data from the World Bank, and OpenStreetMap. Free hosting and queries of COVID datasets As with all data in the Google Cloud Public Datasets Program , Google pays for storage of datasets in the program. BigQuery also provides free queries over certain COVID-related datasets to support the response to COVID-19. Queries on COVID datasets will not count against the BigQuery sandbox free tier , where you can query up to 1TB free each month. Limitations and duration Queries of COVID data are free. If, during your analysis, you join COVID datasets with non-COVID datasets, the bytes processed in the non-COVID datasets will be counted against the free tier, then charged accordingly, to prevent abuse. Queries of COVID datasets will remain free until Sept 15, 2021. The contents of these datasets are provided to the public strictly for educational and research purposes only. We are not onboarding or managing PHI or PII data as part of the COVID-19 Public Dataset Program. Google has practices & policies in place to ensure that data is handled in accordance with widely recognized patient privacy and data security policies.
