Overture shut down

I have a friend working on a new scrap script and he's having a hard time due to heavy usage of cookies and sessions id's. I'll keep you informed.

This article from October tells you what Yahoo is up to with their new project Panama which is going live in the first quarter

Having checked out the Panama website I believe that our beloved overture keyword tool will still exist. However, I suspect that Yahoo may have plans for it to be accessible only to advertisers. See below from the Panama Tips page.

Top 5 guidelines for creating keywords

Exclude keywords and keyword combinations that explicitly describe a direct online purchase (e.g. “online shop” or “buy online”).
Try to predict what your customers will type in when searching for the service or product you offer.
Choose a wide range of keywords that may generate enough leads to follow up on or create a sufficient database for your follow-up.
Take into account keywords with multiple words (“large format print for storefront”).
Periodically add new keywords and remove the non-performers to keep your account administration at a manageable level
Use the Keyword Research Tool of the “add keyword” wizard in your account.

Besides the matter of accessibility overture is going to represent the search stats in a different manner, the current "absolute" format is being replaced by a relative bar indicator and on top of that the results will not be shown for the specific term but for combinations thereof.

The Overture Bid Tools still seems to be working.

Use it while it's available!

You can try the following;

It's not optimal yet, I want to use sockets in combination with https so I can use my multithreader, it's single threaded for now.

I hope google can cope with the concentration of traffc, yahoo get's the most traffic in the world which it handled fine in terms of broadband but thousands of domainers bulk mining with one particular tool is something that is more in the direction of massive parallel computing. Don't expect it to last forever, if you want speedy information you will have to subscribe to one (or more) of the ad services.
