I tried to log in to Google Adwords Keyword Tool to do some newbie research but it would not let me in ! It said I had to create an account so I tried.

Now, you can not use it unless you give them your billing information . I was not going to run an adcampaign, just do some research and now you cant.

    I think you bookmarked the internal adwords tool.
    My link goes the the external one. Both will give the same numbers, but when you want accurate data on estimated click volume you should use the internal one.

    I believe they were scheduled to do some adwords maintenance this weekend. They may have changed some redirection.
