Very Impressive resume’ Sean, I like the subject physics very much. If you have any books or publications you’d like to market just send me an email. I will be publishing “One Step Beyond Einstein’s Theory” in 2012. Just wanted to let you know, nice website.

Is there a report available for purchase which tracks business related words? As interesting as Brittney Spears is, I would prefer search trends on grown up phrases?

I’m looking for a keyword search tool which can hit something pretty specific as in number of searches for something that only gets hit once or twice a year for a period of 3 weeks. What is the best search tool for looking at data like this?

I’ve been fascinated and frustrated to observe what seems to be a common practice among non-expert computer users.
It’s using Google search box in the way an address box was intended.

This helps explain why bebo and facebook are very common searches. It’s not a case of people looking for references to those sites, it’s a ‘please take me to my favourite site’ request, not a search request.

Also very few non-expert computer users understand favourites or bookmarks. Therefore they constantly use Google several times a day to access their favourite site.

Here are the most popular search terms in the UK in Google last year.

1. facebook
2. bbc
3. youtube
4. ebay
5. games
6. news
7. hotmail
8. bebo
9. yahoo
10. jobs

Strip out the ones that look like requests to access a named site and you are left with Games, News, Jobs.

I think this means that to find out what people are SEARCHING for, one needs a different method.
