Hey... I just joined this forum few days ago, lots of activity here, I can barely keep up with you guys, haha. Anyways, for people interested in search marketing especially who use the overture keyword selector a lot, and who have some coding skills, I just made a function which extracts the keywords from that page. You can use it to build tools or whatever, it's fine with me. Here's the post: vladimir.pixeltomorrow.com/web-development-overture-keyword-extractor-using-php (no direct links yet, because I'm a newbie ) Hope it helps, Vladimir P.S. If you blog about this one, please try to post about who's the original author, otherwise I will cry, feel sick and ugly, it happened some time ago with other stuff and I didn't liked it.
I'm sure Overture will ban IP addresses as soon as they get bombarded with requests. Could be useful though! Regards, acplus
you could cache the results once you get them, save them in a file and that's it. And when you start extracting words, you can make a random pause of XX seconds between each request, this way nothing will happen. Trust me Vladimir
