Take neighbor to court bamboo

The title of this blog entry, "take neighbor to court bamboo," sounds like the germ of a short story.

And, in a sense, it is: the phrase is a search query some anonymous visitor typed into Google.

This brings us to 103bees.com. It's a new web-based service that does search traffic analysis -- helping you analyze your website by studying the queries that have brought visitors to it. (These queries are easy to capture using a web stats service such as StatCounter.com — or using 103bees.com.) As this 103bees blog post explains, analyzing website queries is important for websites and blogs that want to increase their earnings from ad programs such as Google Adsense.

103bees invites users to show off their funniest search queries. WriterWay hasn't had any particularly weird queries recently (perhaps because it's a site about clear communication?) but I've signed up for 103bees and I promise to share anything amusing that comes my way.

In the meantime, I'm wondering if that person did, indeed, sue the neighbor over the bamboo.
