You said you are monitoring interesting keywords & topics but how do you know which keywords & topics to monitor?

Also, if you are choosing the keywords then wouldn't the data be inaccurate for predicting trends as trends occur randomly?



I have scripts that are crawling the web in places like twitter, reddit and facebook to generate keyword ideas.

So the trends that it detects is biased towards the corners of the web that I am monitoring. Which skew heavily tech!


This is a great service. It would be great for you to take suggestions on other locations to crawl.


That's a brilliant idea, will add somewhere for people to make suggestions. Thank you!
