Google Not So Perfect:Human Error Today


When I first got on today and used Google to on my daily sites that I always go on, I saw they flagged every single site on their search engines. Now I knew this was wrong, so I did a search on 2 other sites and got the exact same error as I did prior. So I used Yahoo instead, no problem....

Well, while doing my research today for this blog, I found out that it wasn't just me who had this issue. Google has released a statement about it on their official blog today. They say they will work hard to find out the cause and to make sure it never happens again.

I doubt they can prevent "human error", every time. Will I use Google less? I don't know! If it keeps happening, I will use it less. But for now, that its fixed, I will still use it.

Were you affected by this?

Meta Tags For Blogger? At Last!

Yes, I have been searching forever on how to put those precious mete tags that help ones blog get read by search engines. It's so very important for SEO!

I'll show you how to place meta tags on blogger tomorrow with pictures.

Apple Changes iTunes


So, I guess Steve Jobs isn't making enough money in his opinion. Apple Inc, is lowering the prices on some songs to $0.69 cents and all tracks now have zero copy protection. Meaning that people like me, who have an mp3 player that isn't in Ipod can move the songs onto them without any issues. Yippe!

Songs will come in 3 tiers of price levels, 0.69, 0.99 and $1.29(that is pricey).

I guess even apple is suffering. I wonder how Zune and Microsoft is doing?.....

Are you happy about this?

Miranda IM-All In One Messenger

I download Miranda IM, which is a all in one IM. Meaning you don't need to download AIM,Yahoo,MSN or ICQ-which is a life saver for someone with dial up and is uses less hard drive space up.

I am liking it, its easy and quick. A very small file-1.47MB. So it is a pretty quick even on dial up(if you use vista- make sure you turn off any of your firewalls while downloading). I am loving it.

Download it now at Miranda-IM.org. Its FREE
