I want to know what questions people are searching for answers to in my industry so that I can create the most relevant blog articles to write.

Look at Google Trends, Quora, Yahoo Answers, keyword tools that get from Google Instant are also good.
Find forums. Look at Reddit (add /top/?t=all at the end to check out the most popular posts)

Hey could you provide a little bit more insight to your request?
I'm assuming your looking for people's questions to find write up the proper articles to answer their questions. Marketing 101 find the demand and create a supply. There are multiple ways you can go about this:
1st List all your competitors and see what they are doing on the web. What exactly are they writing about
2nd. Do a pull of their backlinks and see who's linking to them and why so. Whats their anchor text, the anchor text is important because it shows what people (blogs/websites) think about their site.
This should be a good start for you being you provided limited information.

Question About Embargo'd Dates and SEO Timeliness
Hello, this is a very specific SEO issue my company and I often have so we want to get a definitive answer for it. Let's say we're writing a guide about a product. Would we be better off releasing that guide as soon as we can (the information embargo date) or is it better to post that guide on the day the product officially releases for the public? We really don't know the answer here, because while we understand being first is very important, we wonder if timeliness with when people are searching for the information matters more. Thanks for all the help, Moz community!

What are your favourite tools for discoving popular content?
Since looking around for popular content discovery tools I came across a review about a tool called PostRank which seemed ideal until I learned Google had bought it and shut it down already 😞 So far I have been using Google reader and Topsy to discover popular content in my niches but I am guessing there are a whole bunch of other tools out there that may work even better - please do let me know your favourites!
