LOL - I'm not convinced. I loved the display and couldn't resist playing around with it. It only took a few seconds to generate the following:

Nice, you managed to do a search for 'c+boost'. While I find smoothies interesting, it is completely irrelevant to this discussion.

I do not believe it's true. I clearly see Search term: "C++ boost"

More so. If one tries to search for "C++ Boost" (as Robert suggested) and for "Boost software" as you David suggested you'll immediately see that people by far prefer Robert's (I do).

Yes, people prefer c+boost over even C++! ( https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=C%2B%2B%20boost%2C%20C%2B%2B&cmpt=q&tz=Etc%2FGMT%2B6 ) If you move your mouse over the results, you'll see that "C+boost" was what the system looked for. When you type in "boost" in the search box you'll get the "Software" grouping disambiguator. cmake doesn't need a disambiguator. The original graph is a good reflection of reality.
