If you have Google Ad$ense ads on your sites, this is hot...
Google shafts blogger, adds gagging clause to Adsense

"#17 Miscellaneous. Except as required by law, You may not, without Google's prior written consent, issue any press release or make any public statement about the subject matter of this Agreement or use or display any Google logo or trademark in any manner (except as otherwise provided to You by Google as part of an Ad Unit)."

No comment. Just giving you a link. Shut Up and Serve Ads

Will PR go down for linking to any site that discusses Ad$ense too?

California cuts the crap...California Governor Signs Tough Anti-Spam Bill. "The new law outlaws unwanted e-mails sent from or to someone in California or through a server in the state. It also prohibits the collecting of e-mail addresses on the Internet in California for the purpose of advertising."

Is the Sun setting at Sun? ...Sun faces financial turmoil. "``The company has gone from being pure in vision and predictable in financial performance to an underachieving, bloated, unfocused reflection of its former self,'' Merrill Lynch analyst Steve Milunovich wrote in an ``open letter'' to Sun on Thursday."


Watch Jill Whalen test SEO stuff."It appears that Google does not index words in the link title attribute."

It got really cold suddenly here in Eastern, Pennsylvania. This only made Dakota, my Golden Retriever puppy, even more energetic and looney. Watching a puppy run around the house at full speed is like watching the scene in the Superman movie where he's racing a train. I took Dakota to the park for a walk, where we both got some exercise and he could chase leaves and search for sticks. May you find something totally useless to do this weekend as well...
