word search map

This is not the most graphically stunning map i have seen but the concept behind it it is quite interesting (and therefore is a nice map!). It represents Germany by visualizing  the most searched words from a list of 64 different terms according to geographical location. As i do not know German myself  i have no other choice but to trust Word and Image blog , where i also found the map, and transfer intact the according information: ” In Heidelberg people look for stress and suffering while in not too distant Würzburg people look for pleasure. In Rostock in the north east, not surprisingly, people look for work, while in Freiburg in the south west people look for wisdom and peace”. Which makes one wonder what is going on in  Heidelberg…too much S/M or too many Christians?
