SEM PPC Tools? or Info Exchange opportunity

Just wondering what your guys opinions are on some of the better PPC search tools out there.

I'm looking for something to help out with keyword research, specifically. Campaign management, bid management, or some more advanced tool suggestions would be cool.

Also, just thought I'd throw it out there (and if its not cool to do this in this thread, just mod this whole section out) - I've been doing a lot of volume with FB and PPV lately. 4-figures a day. If there is someone out there doing upper 3-figs to lower 4-figures a day on search ppc traffic (Bing/Yahoo - I won't work with Google) I'd be glad to exchange campaign tips, bidding info, even share old campaigns to get you started on FB and PPV traffic sources.

Thanks,

Justin Dupre

    Pay per click (PPC) is an internet advertising model used on websites, where advertisers pay their host only when the ad is clicked. With search engines, advertisers typically bid on keyword phrases relevant to their target market. Content sites commonly charge a fixed price per click rather than use a bidding system.
