Google to Face Legal Vultures on Privacy, Will Others As Well?

Google is getting ready to face the legal music for its latest dalliance with regard to privacy. That makes sense only in a world where lawyers run the show. I don’t understand the process of how these things work. I am not a lawyer and I did not spend the night in a Holiday Inn Express so I am SOL in understanding what is about to hapen.

Google Gives Health Searches Special Treatment

Google Gives Health Searches Special TreatmentDid you know that Google is still a search engine? Despite what you might think from their advertisements and the coverage the press gives (guilty as charged) you might forget that Google is still more about search than it is about anything else. An addition to how the search engine leader handles health related searches reminds us that search is still an important part of this whole online game.

Here I was, sharing an awesome technique capable of changing lives, but not many were paying attention. My niche had the perfect demographic—open-minded, receptive, and suitably educated, with interests ranging from psychology to health and fitness. And yet… I had over 35 solid posts on the blog.

Thinking Out Loud About Voice Search: What’s the Business Model?

on Feb 10, 2012
Thinking Out Loud About Voice Search: What’s the Business Model?(image) I don’t have Siri yet – I’m still using my “old” iPhone 4. But I do have my hands on a new (unboxed) Nexus, which has Google Voice Actions on it, and I’m sure at some point I’ll get a iPhone 4GS. So this post isn’t written from experience as much as it’s pure speculation, or as I like to call it, Thinking Out Loud.

Google Search Share Stays Steady As Microsoft and Yahoo Wrestle for the Rest

Google Search Share Stays Steady As Microsoft and Yahoo Wrestle for the RestEach month we do the “Who made progress in search market share” dance. Based on your responses to past posts this dance is getting pretty old. Why? It’s because there never is any real news.

Google Screenwise: Google Looks To Learn How Everyday People Use the Internet

While the Internet cynics are looking at the Google Screenwise project as something curious in light of recent Google moves, I find the general idea a bit refreshing and something that has been sorely missing from the equation for a very long time.

Does Google Personalized Search Have You Concerned?

Does Google Personalized Search Have You Concerned?Google’s SPYW (Search Plus Your World) certainly has elicited some strong reactions. We have heard many of them, read the long -winded diatribes and had every “expert” weigh in on the situation. That’s all necessary (I suppose) but when the rubber meets the road, just what level of impact this change in Google’s search methodology is will be determined by the Internet commonmer, not the Silicon Valley insider. That’s why some research from AYTM Market Research that was
