Polybore was answering FunologieDotCom's question about checking out hot google search terms earlier.

Don't often check out google trends but did so to help answer FunologieDotCom's question.

And what weird and wondrous trends polybore observed and what fun was had working out what was going on.

Going shameless with this one because it's a polybore scoop.

hmmm... never thought of using google to do that.. Thanks

I do use google for spelling tho, if I am unsure I do a search with the word I am confused about and if I spelled it wrong it comes up with "do you mean..."
it is quicker then waiting for the dictionary to come up or whatever..

  lol polybore is supposed to be righting wrongs here not converting people to the dark side of Google search.

  I use my word processor for spelling checks because, if I decide I don't like the word once I verify the spelling, I can get synonyms without doing anything but right-clicking.
