‘Google Books, the online phenomenon that has become something of a godsend to book addicts the world over is quickly gaining popularity among Jamaican readers.’

The quotation above was taken from an article published in the Sunday Gleaner November 1, 2009. I am challenging the writer to prove that Google Books is ‘quickly gaining popularity among Jamaican readers. What is the basis of such as statement? Does the writer have access to data, Web trends reports etc. to corroborate this statement? If this information is available, it should have been included in the article.

I am aware that there are Websites that can provide this type of data such as http://siteanalytics.compete.com upon the payment of a subscription but the article is void of any such reference.
