I like the new Google trends feature but does anybody really believe [esoteric] is a “hot search term” for May 22 2007? Like really … a hot 20 search term … c’mon. Hey Google would it really have been that hard to make it RSS so I wouldn’t have to scrape it it …

Yea and I’m really sure that “what part of a graduate’s costume gave the cordon bleu cooking school its name” and “what sports league was born in 1949 when the baa absorbed the remains of the nbl” are really driving some traffic today.
Maybe because it went from 0 searches to 1 search it is a hot commodity?
Yeah, seems like a toy more than anything, and to tacimala, those terms gave me a laugh too.
Not as cool as I thought it would be. I knew they would be censoring and filtering out stuff, but it is what it is I guess……
From what I’ve seen it looks like this is largely being driven from students doing searches during the day in the US.
Haven’t looked at evening trends to see the shift.
Write 10 blogs posts with a specific keyword in the title and watch the trends shoot up for that keyword.
Think so Ken? Maybe I will
Am I the only one being stupid or can I not find the rest of this post? Pfft, techie blonkers…

100. Tears of a clown (May 24)
Wha?
Step 1: buy a site for ‘esoteric’
Step 2: rank for ‘esoteric’
Step 3: spam trends to make ‘esoteric’ popular
Step 4: sell site for ‘esoteric’ to newb
makes sense to me.
