(all figures on the Google Wheel are in billions)
Inspired heavily by Google Number Wheel that's a brainchild of Philipp Lenssen, here's a different version of Google Wheel for English Alphabets.
It is easy to read the graph. Each pie segment on the circle denotes the number of Google search results for a particular alphabet. For instance, Google Web search returned 24 billion documents containing the alphabet "a" while just 1.7 billion results for alphabet "q".
The graph was plotted using Zohosheet charts because I was finding it tough to create a readable pie chart in Microsoft Excel with this data. Thanks Zoho again.

thats pretty cool is there any way to get the program i'd like to use it on my blog to check for how many time i use a certain word not any word in particular just particular words like i dunno love or hate or something like that i know i could put it through word and do that but i would get the pie chart at the end.
actually it would be cool to use it with word varifacation.

Cool! Is it possible to sort the wheel alphabetically for better readability?

Thanks Amit for using Zoho Sheet to plot the graph. Did you know that you can also publish live charts using Zoho Sheet? This way whenever you update your data in the spreadsheet in Zoho, your published chart in your blog will automatically reflect the change. More details in our blog.

Philipp, sorting the wheel alphabetically is currently not there in Zoho Sheet. We will support it in the coming updates.
