### 1/5 — Used to be good.

*2010-12-10, version 1.1*

This app used to be good.  However, someone is not taking care of it.  Bing was the first thing to go and now the creators did not pay for the domain.  It takes you to godaddy when you start app.  I thought apple took care of these kinds of things.

### 1/5 — People are idiots

*2010-01-31, version 0*

Cool app. I can't believe the intellectually vacant garbage that dominates these lists.  -2 stars for the crappy hijacking adware

### 5/5 — Like it

*2009-12-28, version 0*

I like this app.  It helps me to prepare for conversations at work.

### 1/5 — The update added tons of ads

*2009-12-22, version 0*

Dont update! Its now riddled w ads on every click. An photo ad fills the screen until you tap to close. A waste of bandwidth to the already slow att network.

### 2/5 — Does what it says, just not much

*2009-12-21, version 0*

I don't see it showing popular seaches from Yahoo!, just Google. Info from Twitter is slim-to-none-to-useless.Browser works okay, though doesn't support rotation.It's interesting for a couple minutes but I have other things I can waste my time with.I deleted it from my Touch after 2 uses and a total of 15 minutes.

### 5/5 — Search Trends

*2009-12-19, version 0*

Best free app ever!

### 3/5 — Other search engines

*2009-12-16, version 0*

It presents searches from the three major search engines but when you click on any search it shows results from Google. When I'm interested in Bing search trends I don't want to see the result in Google... I want to see it as a Bing result

### 4/5 — Nice

*2009-12-15, version 0*

Just got it but it seems to be what it claims. Not sure yet what to do with the info it provides.
After useing it for awhile, and getting the update, it's OK. Needs landscape function, and linking to mobile formated pages would be nice.

### 4/5 — Free

*2009-12-15, version 0*

4 Stars.  Great!  Interesting data to browse, plus great for marketing ideas.

### 5/5 — Great apps, runs smoothly now

*2009-12-11, version 0*

Most of those low (one-star) ratings came in because I think the server was down when it was first release, so it was freezing or crashing on them. But that seems to be fixed now becuse it's working fine for me. Super interesting and useful.
