Within the first 5 minutes of using it, I answered some long standing questions that I never knew the answer to, like which phrase was more important in spring time. Thanks, and keep these tools coming. If this information is accurate, then this is a wonderful tool for us.

Thanks for clarifying this Matt: "I believe that’s because we don’t look at the absolute volume of queries, or else a country like the Philippines would rarely show up. Instead, I think that the regions shown are the ones with the highest percentages. So that’s saying that ‘call center outsourcing’ is a more popular query on a percentage basis in those countries. Hope that makes sense. " It was a bit weird. And FYI, even though English isn't the official language in the Philippines (and why should it be?), we use it more often and a lot better than other countries where English is their official language. :p Peace! ^_^ For the trend, the search for “Matt Cutts” and “Google, Yahoo”.

It's already given me some ideas for new sites! You could develop this in a number of ways that would make it really useful for marketing. Such as being able to search a term on a country and region basis ie holidays + south west england or insurance + london. People would be prepared to subscribe to a service like that I'm sure. Meanwhile - we've got other things on our minds over here as you can see http://www.google.com/trends?q=world+cup Searches mostly in UK and Europe - but lot of interest tin US as well and good luck to the US team they've got a tough group.

And...it's REALLY simple...pass on a big hug to the Labs team from us here downunder...

Yahoo have the overture based search mechanism, which always gives a good indication. How about Google coming up with something similar?
