In an interesting article Ivor Hewitt apparently noticed what appears to be a favoring of IIS hosted websites in the MSN Search results pages. In a series of tests, Ivor checked various search terms and the results of Google, Yahoo and others against those of MSN. It appears that there is some sort of boost […]
Just when I thought Google was not doing anything good, they announce their new Movie: operator. The Movie: operator will allow you to find movie times in any zip code or city in the country by typing in “Moive:movie zipcode” without the quotes. You can also put a city/state combination in place of the zip […]
Well, it appears that technology is not always the greatest thing. Google has implemented a new feature wherein you can type someone’s
telephone number into the search bar and hit enter and then you will be
given a map to their house. Everyone should be aware of this! Note that
you can have your phone […]
I guess all of the big boys are looking for an edge these days. MSN with it’s commercials every five minutes, Yahoo! integrating XML/RSS results into their search results and now Google has decided to integrate images into their search results.

Just got a call from some nice girl over at Overture. It appears they are researching potential market demand for an Overture version of Adsense. Oh, what is that you say? Are you asking me if I would be open to using another system other than Adsense to generate revenues? You say you have finally […]
Just when you thought it was safe to search on the web, enter Gizoogle. If you ever wondered what Google searches looked like to Snoop Doggy Dog, then you need to check out Gizoogle. You can search the top ten google results, translate web pages and text, the Snoop Dog way. Pretty darn hilarious.
Well, in case you have not heard, Google is on crack. It appears that they have stumped the SEO/SEM community and just about everyone else recently with their latest “update.” I have heard theories from just about every point on the map and they are all different. It seems though, that most people are […]
The more I look, the more the big search portals like Yahoo! and Google look alike. Recently, Yahoo! has made their search interface look pretty much identical in feel and functionality to Google’s search.
