Saw the video and thought, I can help with that...

So you like the idea of using google to tell you what phrases go with which keywords for example like this:

BUT the problem is that you have to remember it because you'll want to try adding extra letters and so on ....

Here comes your new favourite thing in the world : REST

http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?client=firefox&q=YOURQUERY

Copy that block of stuff into your Chrome browser and replace YOURQUERY with banana for example and you will get a little text file with this in it

you really will, ok so far so interesting, now the next bit

Lets assume you want to do lots of these queries and review your results at your leisure well to do that

install ARC Advanced REST Client you'll find it on the Google Chrome store here:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/advanced-rest-clie...

then start it up and fill in the http request with

http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?client=firefox&q=YOURQUERY

change YOURQUERY to banana , make sure it says GET and click SEND it should look like this:

and as you can see the results are at the bottom, now if you click on the black icon with down arrow it will save the results to your google drive . I think you can automate this even further, if anyone is interested let me know and I'll figure it out.

Hope this helps
