In November 2004 we built the first version of MySERP our aim was to help us find more interesting things via search by simply taking out the websites we already knew about or weren't interested in. Instead of opting in to a set of websites or web pages our theory is it will be easier to just opt out of them by default - no more shopping comparison sites, no more affiliate link sites, no more Pay Per Click ad sites.
the, the borg. MAN! they. YES they are everywhere like monkeys in a tree the shit on your head from a branch. ESPECIALLY if you are open source java developer IN YOUR OWN time MAN! THE MAN will take a dump on you just like a monkey in a tree. AGAINST you will, and even if you have plug into the M$ YES M$$ visual studio (which as we all know is monkey droppings) and WITH JAVA on you will get sued to buggery and back. Even in your own time as a hobby. Damn you m$. THE BORG will take a dump, from a visual studio FOR FREE (as in freedom) open source developers BEWARE don't try to cuddle BILL GATES because he will fling his on EXCREMENT in yo' face. Mutha.
Semantic Web = the promise that never quite delivers
Such a good idea in theory, but where does trust come from? Who can we trust to mark anything?
And by the time any of this is solved google will have evolved so it can understand plain text better than mark up. How do you markup something as ambiguous? Unsure? Rumor? It's pretty easy in plain English:
"I hear Joe is living in Cornwall". There you go, easy to use and no angle brackets.

When the next generation of iPod owning kids get into power, most of the copyright laws will be scrapped.
It's a shame I'll be dead by then ;-/

Someone phoned me saying "Hi, you asked me to call you back about conservatories."
I said: I don't think so...
They said: Sure you did, I'm not lying.
I said: OK, when can you install it? I live on the second floor in a flat.
They said: Ah...
I said: You fucking lying prick. Honestly how stupid are you?

Tricky isn't it? We all want Firefox (and open standards) to beat Flash, Sliverlight etc. to beat coporate lock in.
But is that open standards browser now a corporate lock in?
But, but... "do no evil"... we can trust google?
I say take their money, buy some good developers, then run ;-)

I heard they are suffering from global warming.
When did defending your rights become so complex and expensive, that it's big news when someone is able to do it?
Aaaah, sweet sweet land of the free. Whence did thou depart?

I was on a 5 hour train journey home when it suddenly stopped in the middle of no where.
Behind me I heard a mum tell her little boy - don't pull that red handle, it makes the train stop.
Aaaah, the emergency alarm pull? How we all laughed. Then waited hours for the incompetent train people to get things moving again.

People trust organic search results more, so even if they were more expensive to buy than paid for adverts, you'd get more bang for your buck.
People who click on adverts are less likely to 'convert' (buy and item, sign up for a newsletter etc) than people who click on a natural search result
Spam sucks bad, but if you can get into the top 20 of googles natural search, you have hit gold.
