the result appears to be "more american" and not a truly global representation as i did the search in goggle.com
this's just for fun and the result can never mean to be accurate
by the way, this number changes often (more often than "daily"). try and of the above architects to see what i'm saying. plus, by creating this thread you've added at least one result for each of the architects listed above...
as of 3:15 EST:
2,270,000 Frank Gehry
1,100,000 Richard Rogers
959,000 Renzo Piano
why is the spelling so bad in thread titles? can't anybody get one of these right or at least take the effort to double-check before submitting? how strange!
yea, but Meier is a one-trick pony (although he does that one trick pretty well) Corbu invented more and was multi-faceted...but you're right, M. is more recent and still alive. If it's students or researchers making most of those searches then they should be going to the source.

sorry for the typo error
it's so wrong that Meier has more entries than Le Corbusier...
yea, but Meier is a one-trick pony (although he does that one trick pretty well) Corbu invented more and was multi-faceted...but you're right, M. is more recent and still alive. If it's students or researchers making most of those searches then they should be going to the source.
i think the bias is just because the internet represents americans more than any other nationality.

meta- only school bloggers and editors have access to the control panel. you're special.
to add to the fun (since my entire day has been spent doing internet research):
24,400 for starchitect
276,000 for archinect - paul better work on this!!!!
484,000 for famous architect
490,000 for louis kahn
553,000 for vitruvius
2,720,000 for palladio
76,800,000 for architect
277,000,000 for architecture
2,370,000,000 for Google
6,390,000 for Googling
5,470,000 for Goggle
82,100 for Goggling
(this is completely stupid but I'll add some more..)
580,000,000 for metal
361,000,000 for wood
267,000,000 for plastic
110,000,000 for concrete
89,200,000 for brick
so metal wins (including Mercyful Fate I guess..)
2,830,000 for "modern architecture"
44,600 for "postmodern architecture"
so "Towards an Architecture" wins over "Complexity and Contradiction"
and 29,500,000 for sustainability
No Mies on that list????
This should make up for that...

In the spirit of Medit's post.
2,400,000,000 LIFE
651,000,000 DEATH
Life wins. Death does beat Metal though....so that's still pretty good, right?
