    ... or they could require (read force) the ads and then only they make money. Possibly even track the clicks and move your "googlepage" (is that the new "homepage"?) up in the Google search rankings.

  2. Ads!?! on Google Introduces Page Creator · · Score: 1

    Their T&Cs state: "Some Google services are supported by advertising revenue and may display advertisements and promotions on the service." (Duh!)

    This means that Google could insert ads on content created using Page Creator and hosted at *.googlepages.com.

    Nice!

  3. Re:Wish I could say the same... on RX-8 Hydrogen RE a Dual Fuel Car · · Score: 1

    This works only if the engine isn't badly flooded. It also depends on the temperature outside. I live in upstate NY and I've tried the same procedure multiple times in the middle of winter (read -5F). Apparently (to quote the dealer) "these car engines are temperamental in cold weather". Also the dealers recommend that you try it the procedure to un-flood it three or four times however the OEM battery doesn't hold up to that kind of "abuse". Finally they recommend that you change the spark plugs once you've had the engine flooded bad but none of the dealers will entertain that idea.

    ...about the Renesis engine in the RX-8. The car engine has a history of flooding. I bought one first hand and had it for more than a year. The car locked up on me thrice in the first couple of months and had to be towed to a dealership each time. It was so unreliable that I had to get rid of it.

    It is an entirely unique feeling to watch a two week old car die and be sitting on the back of a flat-bed tow truck.

    ... I'd rather drive than have something beep at me every 10 seconds.

    Anyone heard of Robert Wilensky and Tom Phelps and their work on solving the broken link problem? How about my work?? :)
