Back in September Google Trends went from from showing 100 results to 40. And now today it looks like they dropped it again to show only 20 results. Google Trends was a good tool to find new domains to hand register, but it seems that this Google product as a stand alone product is fading out.

Google Trends made a significant change to their results today by decreasing the number of results from 100 down to 40. Using Google Trends was a great way to see on a hourly basis what users are searching for and then sometimes able to hand register new keyphrases as domains that would inevitably get type-in traffic. Google explains that a graph will show up on the bottom of the results when you search on a hot trend and then state “We hope this change will make for a simpler user experience, and help you focus better on the top, most interesting content.”
