Adding specific keywords to search-engine searches can not only narrow-down search results, but may infer emerging trends in any subject matter. What can be described as inferential scanning, environmental scanning, or content-analysis is basically detecting 'semantic anomalies' in content. This process of 'detecting semantic anomalies' can also be described as intuitive fishing of patterns of information: the sort of signatures individuals, businesses, etc. inadvertently create in a digital society. Another good description of inferring 'semantic anomalies' are 'nodal points' described as "emergent systems of history," "the shapes from which history emerges," in "vast flows of undifferentiated data"; "strung along lines that are histories of the happened becoming the not-yet." Science-Fiction Author William Gibson (who actually coined the term 'Cyberspace') described a character in his novel Idoru as an 'intuitive fisher of patterns of information.' Information consultant Richard Thieme also describes 'nodal points.' (SEE LINKS) I've developed a list of keywords which may infer emerging trends.' I've also included current and recent dates in the search query (example notation typed as "January, * 2005" or "February, * 2005" to infer up-to-date content) One simple example of a keyword is 'trend toward' (SEE LINKS). Entering in the keyword 'trend toward' as part of a search-engine query lists search-results; inferring content which may signal both growing industry / professional developments, as well as the public zeitgeist. In some cases, search results yield specialty websites that are fee-only and even restricted access content. In many cases, 'false hits' result as content that mentions the words 'trend toward' does not necessarily have tangible values. Has GOOGLE had experience in assessing 'inferential scanning' as a potentially valuable search-engine addition? I may present the list of specific keywords (which may be helpful) in inferring emerging trends to GOOGLE in hope that they may find these keywords of value.

Thanks for trying, as stated, Science-Fiction ('Digital-Age' Sci-Fi
thriller) author William Gibson (who actually coined the term
'Cyberspace') described a character in his novel 'Idoru' as an
'intuitive fisher of patterns of information.' Ironically, the name of
his following novel was 'Pattern Recognition'-- yet following Gibson's
stories can be quite a challenge!
Anyways, the focus of this post was if speciifc keywords added to
search queries can yield search-results; which may yield content which
can describe emerging trends e.g., the closest thing to a "crystal-ball
of sorts!"
SEE LINKS in original post for examples.
