    I have trouble coming up with ideas for one blog. Usually I just use technology issues I have solved duirng my daily life, or have some thoughts about more common questions I have heard during my socializing online.

    After reading your first two parts, however, you have just give me two other great ideas. I never would have thought about using Google Trends for ideas. Thanks for that!
