Do not have an opinion while you listen because frankly, your opinion doesn?t hold much water outside of Your Universe. Just listen. Listen until their brain has been twisted like a dripping towel and what they have to say is all over the floor. Listen.

I'm sorry I missed your project, I wasn't aware of it till today. I learned of it through the post on Anthea's blog. I think it's an interesting idea, and wish more photography web people had participated, as a cross-community tally of what our viewers are searching for could have been very useful for all of us. Perhaps you could make this a quarterly project, and as your audience grows, more people may participate. I'll be subscribing to your blog, and if you do run this project again, I will definately write a post linking to you! Anyway, here were my top ten search terms and tallies over the last 12 months: extension tubes - 310 macro extension tube - 180 macro extension tubes - 171 extension tube - 121 light painting - 118 sakura blossom - 104 loreo 3d lens - 71 3d babes - 70 loreo 3d - 68 sakura blossoms - 67 neil creek - 62 Obviously hardware review type posts were very popular, making up 6 of the top 10 searches. Sakura blossoms also seem to be a popular search, bringing me traffic even though the search terms showed no interest in photography. The last two were my name, which is great as a photographer trying to build a name for myself, and perhaps a typical internet search for "3d babes". Naturally I carefully chose "babes" as a keyword for the post for this very reason, even though the post is about anime figurines :) Hi there!
