Hey chaps, its been a while and I just came across this http://www.google.org/flutrends/ It seems such a simple idea! I wonder what else you could use Google trends to track?

Anyways, I thought I’d share my error report with you all :) PS. Seeing as we’re all talking about Chrome, I’ve made a Chrome category in which you can put all your posts… I don’t know why I gave up on SEO-ing this blog… perhaps, because it became too obsessive and not any fun any more :P
