That's why I'm using the term "Accidental Excellence" in my site description now. Essentially it means keep doing something and eventually something will work. :) You’re Welcome Denise,

They not only publish a bunch of top/hot sellers lists in various categories, but the default "sort by" setting for their product pages is usually by "Bestselling"....their hottest sellers. All of this would be useful information when building BANS sites, in particular if you're interested in promoting/targeting the most popular brand names in any particular category.

I can tell from what I've seen today that there are a number of college students busy at work on term papers right now. Hi Lin,

It’s funny what will all of a sudden spring to the front of Google Trends. I can tell from what I’ve seen today that there are a number of college students busy at work on term papers right now.

For example, many people have been searching for info on <b>Mildred Loving</b>, but I didn't know who she was until Google Trends. I hadn't heard of the others until this post, so thank you for pointing these out. Google Trends is very interesting to check out, and I have it bookmarked.

I also use Google News Search and Yahoo News when I'm looking for news topics although they don't show you as much popularity info. Hi Vinny,
