Google Suggest

Ok I use the Internet to find stuff out as I watch the TV.

But the prediction always seems so spot on.

Eg, some program about the queen and when I search for

"how old in the "

It suggests "queen"

Watching Tine to kill I type in

"Sandra " and it suggests bullock as the second option.

Curious now I type in Matthew and it give me

Maconohey (fuck the spelling)

Has anyone noticed the very topical, laser guided suggest?

Yeah, I've noticed it.  In fact, it sort of surprised me once last week while I was searching for some software.  I'm thinking that the perma-cookies are still being used even though I have supposedly opted-out.  The reason I think so is that some of the recent ads have been a little too targeted.

it is very good, and one of the most useful keyword research tools IMO.

particularly fond of this suggestion
