As of today, Google is sharing a snapshot of some of the most popular public data search topics on Google. They’re also launching the Google Public Data Explorer, an experimental visualization tool in Google Labs.

Here’s the most popular data and statistics search topics:

1. School comparisons
2. Unemployment
3. Population
4. Sales tax
5. Salaries

and an interesting chart for my fellow colleagues:

This chart compares bi-annual gross minimum wages per month in Euro. This dataset was prepared by Google based on data downloaded from Eurostat - Last updated: March 6, 2010
