The internet is comprised of electronic documents, hosted on more than 489 million^[1] servers networked around the globe. These electronic documents contain words, and those words are indexed and databased by companies such as Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft in order to facilitate searching of the internet.

The aim of this site is compare groupings of words that have a common topic by counting the number of occurances of the word groupings, which we have coined edroppings. The source of the data used on this site is the Google.com search engine. The comparison is useful to assess the relative volume of information about the particular edropping. The electronic documents being counted may be factual information, such as reference documents or news articles, opinion based documents, positive or negative, or even keyword spam ^[2], which would artificially inflate the data.
