It depends on the browser you are using. Using IE, it brings up the 3 images like Sean described. I've been using Mozilla Firebird this whole time, and I get the Main TWEXUS page when I follow the link. Which is part of the reason why I thought Sean had had to have entered the phrase in the TWEXUS search box (sorry for that misunderstanding, Sean).

There is a script on the site that takes the search terms from google and builds the page dynamically. For example, take any terms from the search term seed page here and enter them in a google search. Then follow the twexus link that google provides. The page served up will always be www.twexus.com/subpage_55/, but the images will vary depending on the search terms used. I think the script must not be able to retrieve the google search terms successfully except with IE as the user agent, so it just serves up the main page for other browsers.

So I was wrong -- it does appear that the associations with the 3 words did exist prior to Sean finding this page.

No problem, seems we may be on the same webpage after all now.

Kewl.

Got a busy day coming up I may be bailing out of here shortly.

I'm using Opera. Thanks for the experimentation.

Did you see anything about the bracketed numbers next to the associated words?

Also, Andreas does imply that his assocations seed is being built dynamically and says specifically that it's pruned for "bad" words every hour.

He also writes that the "top 100" is for the last 24 hours.

I'm speculating that those bracketed numbers means the number of hits to an association term, perhaps updated in batch every 24 hours?
