Limitations of  Yahoo! Clues

Yahoo! Clues is similar to Google Trends and Google Insights for Search. Unlike Google’s services, Yahoo Clues is limited to the US and it only shows information for the past 30 days.

You can start exploring Yahoo! Clues from a link in our Search result pages, or by going toclues.yahoo.com.
