Stuck for a new idea for your next eHow article? Don't worry. Google to the rescue!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
Google's experimental search feature, "Google Suggest", is a great way to generate ideas for your next eHow article. See the Resource links, below, to link to Google Suggest directly.
Step2

Step3

Try:

How to a
How to b
How to c

and so on.
Step4
click to enlarge See a "How to" that looks interesting? A bit mysterious? Just move the cursor over it to highlight the phrase, and give it a click. Google will bring up the search results so you can see what it's all about.
Step5
click to enlarge Of course, you're not restricted to "How to". A search on "How can I" and similar phrases also gives excellent results.
