Sumario:[EN] Quantitative analysis of the contents of Google’s database in order to ascertain the impact of the new BigDaddy infrastructure. The results show a substantial increase in the volume of pages indexed, approaching 40.000.000.000, of which 40% are in the .com domain. The .es domain represents less than half of the pages from Spain, due to the large number of pages registered under international domains. In all, our country’s presence in Google content is approximately 1.1%. This is consistent with results obtained regarding languages, since Spanish occupies a very humble sixth place (2.6%) and Catalan represents 0.09% of the total. Spanish is overwhelmingly the principal language in Spanish–speaking countries, but its presence in the United States is, percentage–wise, quite low.
