What is on our minds? Google instant knows!

Tonight I was just messing around with Google instant. It was kind of cool watching the results as I typed.

I was intrigued so I clicked to learn more about GI. You can read about it here, but below is the main point I found interesting..

"Our key technical insight was that people type slowly, but read quickly, typically taking 300 milliseconds between keystrokes, but only 30 milliseconds (a tenth of the time!) to glance at another part of the page. This means that you can scan a results page while you type." Google

So I started searching and eventually I searched for make money online. Here's a screen shot of what Google predicts.

    Actually Google is correct. I type pretty quick, much quicker then most search users and I can still scan the results page while I'm typing and that is kinda cool! = )

    Googles instant results come from a database of searched terms. In reality the results
    should be a very good indicator of what people are searching for. If that is true then it
    could be a key to finding hot selling niche markets.

    Just a thought?

    Have a Great Day!
    Michael
