Great that I know people are searching for "anal" but that doesn't help me to make better tags on serious content. So they need to make an option to filter out the adult stuff and maybe think about specific searches in categories/genres. If I am making a travel site, I can imagine knowing what the world is searching for within a travel destination (say Greece) would be useful to ensure I have answered the right questions. So I need more specific searches for this business model to work for me. By the way, I am searching for the date for NextWeb 2009? Has it been set yet? Couldn't make this years event but I see from the vids that I missed an interesting event that complements DLD, LIFT, Reboot10 etc. Not sure that just having the top-ten is going to be that useful.
