When you think of New York, what do you think? If you ask Google, they'll say the New York Times. Very Small Array put together this map of the states as named by Google's autocomplete. It looks like Massachusetts and Louisiana get researched a lot by history buffs, the midwest is all about college sports, and Kentucky is only worthwhile if followed by "fried chicken." But what about the city itself?
While typing in the boroughs, we got Brooklyn College, Manhattan College, Queens, College, the Bronx Zoo and the Staten Island Ferry. The New York City ballet was the first up when looking up the city, followed by the New York City Department of Education and a New York City subway map.
