If you compare the front page results from searching either 'django' or 'ruby on rails' that are actually related to the framework, you'll see that only 60% of django results are compared to rails' 100%. I believe this has a lot to do with

It's definitely a joke.. at about 5 minutes in you can hear one of the production guys laugh uncontrollably. The t-rex poking out behind the city scape at 6:45 is pretty good too.

Can you provide any evidence to support this? The only metric I've ever seen Opera beat Chrome on was IE9's flying images benchmark.

I think that the length of the campaign had a lot to do with the substantial difference in numbers. Even though the actual amount of money spent may be the same, I saw the DuckDuckGo advertisements countless number of times. In addition, it

I think that may have been true in the earlier days of the net. The information was there, you just had to take the initiative to look for it. Nowadays, aggregators (like HN) and websites like Wikipedia have insane amounts of varying knowle
