How Many Google's Are There? - Technology Evangelist

While researching yesterday's post on Google-dependence, I took a look at how much traffic this site receives from Google. Here's what I found out:

1. Google drives less than 1/2 but more than 1/4 of the traffic to this site.

2. The percentage of traffic coming from Google has been steadily dropping as the site gains links from other websites.

3. There are a lot of Googles. How many? Well, here are all of the Google properties that have referred traffic to this site over the past month:
