What is your secret to uncovering trends?
Wherever you are: observe, absorb and be curious.
What do you enjoy most about Trend Hunter?
A constant source of innovation and inspiration to be sponged up. I enjoy discovering the "surrounding" intricate blogosphere, watch how ideas progress and get amplified. Trendhunter is the Great Amplifier.
