Google Trends is a new product from Google Labs that can be a very helpful tool for marketing departments and internet entrepreneurs alike. The tool allows you to enter any search term and it returns search statistics over time for that term. Much like technorati will return statistics for what individuals are blogging about, Google Trends allows you to harness the collective trends for Google’s millions of users.
