First comparison to mind is autocomplete that firefox or any popular browser implements for commonly addressed sites.
Just type in the first few letters of what you want and bingo! You're presented with the most popular searches google lists for that keyphrase.

For instance 'ausg' wields a mere 135,000 results for ausgamers.

Now to integrate this into firefox...

This made that Google-wack (or whatever) game about 10000 times easier.

A mate told me that Google is suing www.booble.com
Google isn't happy that they are riding on their coat tails.

Its a brilliant piece of business if you ask me. Google will have to end up buying booble so these guys will prolly end up making s***loads from a simple idea.

its pretty cool for doing that name search thing to see if anyone else has the exact same name as you. Apparently I share the same name with an early prez of the USA... 5 million matches(N)
