A couple of days ago, I saw a segment in ZD-TV.[nbsp][nbsp]I forgot whether it was The Screen Savers or Call for Help.[nbsp][nbsp]Anyway, I caught only the last portion of it and wasn't able to get the name of the program.[nbsp][nbsp]

They were evaluating and discussing a program that tracked the words that were submitted to search engines on a second-by-second basis.[nbsp][nbsp]It was a continuously-scrolling list of words that had the most-submitted word first on the list along with how many submissions of that word had been made to search engines in the recent period of time--usually the last few minutes or hours.[nbsp][nbsp]The number two word was below it, number three below that and so on.

You could actually watch the words swap positions as one overtook another in quantity of submissions and watch the numbers change in the right-hand column.

Have you heard of this?[nbsp][nbsp]I cannot find anything in the ZD-TV archives about this.

I think such a program would be invaluable in defining your metatags.[nbsp][nbsp]Help!!
