Excerpt: The Google Search Side show on Video is my attempt to entratin you with something new! So  here I am going to sum up the problems I see with Google search. The catch is I’m going to do  it with videos slideshows and music. Personal Search: Well this was getting the rounds heavy in the dojo the other daty and well this sums up just how pervasive Personal Search is. Goes beyond Cookies is at least IP aware, specially if you have any Google account… and other than my brother I don’t know anyone who doesn’t. Google Social Strategy: Fails miserably because it’s now creating “the follower…

Excerpt: I am a product of the sixties so inherently think all Government and big biz is fcked beyond practical use, unfortunately, the alternatives are worse so we “play along” out of self preservation. I literally don’t vote because I believe we shouldn’t encourage government by participating lest they think I actually support the silliness. I don’t trust big biz or “the Man” because they think they know what’s best for me, when in reality, it is they think what is best for them is best for me, hence, my trepidation around privacy and the internet being left to big biz. Early this…

Excerpt: So you use Google all day everyday and you might even use Google Chrome, their browser they launched last year ( if you don’t, don’t panic its not essential) and if your moving in tech circles you might even have heard whispers about Chrome OS, Googles operating system for your computer. Again, if you haven’t, don’t panic, its not essential! Most of us will have fallen into the second category and right now are sitting wondering what this Chrome OS thing is and what I’m on about, well, instead of making it even more complicated, why not watch this handy video…

Excerpt: This post was started right after the ReTweet changes were made… alas before I could finish the RT was rolled back and releases out of Beta! Believe it or not I was continuing with the 3 Stooges theme from the Twitter Lists post for the dev team… in fact the video is a Stooges Classic “The Plumbers”! Twitter Tries To Change Retweets, Doesn’t Get The Social In Social Media was pretty condemning of “the boys” basically saying they didn’t know their audience. MilwaukeeSEO did consider both sides of the story and did defend “the boys” to some extent. I think Twitter do in fact know their users all…

Excerpt: Chances are we have never met because I seldom go to seminars and other SEO networking events, forums or discussion. I was thrilled to be given a chance to work with so many talented copy writers, bloggers, innovative web developers, Social Media consultants and marketers! I’m a Napoleon Hill disciple and Think and Grow Rich is like a bible to me. I have not had a Matermind Group lately so the CloudMixer group is filling a void I’ve felt for a time.  My philosophy on life is simple: What the mind of man can conceive and believe, It can achieve. Napoleon Hill~ Think…

Excerpt: Generally I’m not a big fanboy of the Twitter development team, management’s business capabilities/acumen, or a believer that twitter is much more than the future property of one of the big boys! Twitter lists are the first truly great development to come from this team in a while. They are bringing the functionality of  Tweetdeck groups to Twitter.  Anne Smarty did a post on the uses for twitter lists. Although these are useful for promotion (nothing wrong with that) the benefit of lists to users are many fold. As a developer I can think of 1/2 doz. things on the promotion side…

Excerpt: Am in Costa Rica. I’d always thought of Costa Rica as South America, but it’s actually Central America. To the north is Nicaragua and to the east and south is Panama, home to the historic Panama Canal, one of the largest and most difficult engineering projects ever undertaken. I’m here developing an iPhone app, one of the smallest and easiest computer engineering projects I’ve ever undertaken. Costa Rica is a small country, about two thirds the size of Scotland. Nearly a quarter of the country is made up of protected areas of rainforest and mountainous terrain. The wildlife here is incredible. You can’t…

Excerpt: I am currently working on a project for a client which involves a piece of software which can be downloaded over the internet and installed on a mobile phone. The software does three functions: 1) Performs a backup of the contacts, videos and photos from the phone 2) Can restore contacts, videos and photos back to the phone 3) Can lock the phone in the case of theft.
