More Google Search Insights

Google Insights for Search, a more advanced version of Google Trends, started to show data for three specialized search engines: Google Image Search, Google News and Froogle. You can now see the most popular queries from Google Image Search in United Kingdom, the most popular news-related searches in Quebec or the locations where "Michael Jackson" was a popular news search in 2009.


Insights for Search offers a very interesting feature for disambiguating queries. For example, you can find data about the query "tiger" and restrict it to the computers & electronics category or the sports category. Google suggests the appropriate categories and subcategories and it shows their relative popularity. It would be interesting to see a similar feature for web search results.

  2. I just use the Google Translate to translate my blog from Chinese to English, so Please don't mind the grammar especially the last line.
    My original meaning is " Google is powerful,if you can use it, You will more powerful".

  4. hum....search based on time&region,...very impressive.

    actually, i used to have a similar idea like this, but only time-based plus search advice. and i don't think region can be as useful as time on filtering search results(or say guiding users to the results they want).

    p.s. i searched "olympic" on news search, and it returns most results on 08 august ,nice job,haha..
