I have recently signed up to Google alerts on Islam, and I thought I might post them here, daily, at least for a while. The thinking is that the Google search for its daily alert is based on some sort of algorithm that is neutral. Quite how they do it, I don't know, but I assume something comes into the equation about the number of people linking to particular sites, or the number of blogs that are writing about Islam. In any case, I think it may be interesting to see if the results are pro-Islam or critical of Islam. Let's call them "A" for apologist (that's not pejorative, by the way), "C" for critical of Islam and "N" for those that are neither, "neutral".
I'm not sure what this will show in the end, but after a couple of weeks it might be interesting to see what the balance between "A", "C" and "N" is, and then to think about it a bit more about whether it means anything.
Anyway, here's today's and the count for today is "C" = 2 and N= 2.
