Imagine this: You’re driving across town to catch a concert by a new artist that friends have been talking about for weeks. Only you’re not really driving. The car is driving itself. And you’re actually paying as much attention to the video screen on your car’s dashboard as anything. You’ve already bought the singer’s latest [...] - Official: Google Testing “Ads” Description Rather Than “Sponsored Links” For AdWords

I recently spoke at the Domainfest conference in Prague. The conference, of course, was all about selling and buying domains, but they asked me to speak about search. “Domaining” is related to search, but somehow the two worlds rarely intersect. Yet they do need each other. In this post, I’d like to show you around the [...] - Yahoo Expands Mobile Search Results Display
Users of Yahoo’s mobile web search site (http://m.yahoo.com) on smartphones should notice new enhancements and expanded search results the next time they search using certain types of queries.

In the aftermath of Bing and Yahoo integrating their search ad platforms, the “early winner” seems to be Google, whose share of paid search spending rose more than two percent between the second and third quarters of this year.

Twitter shortens the six degrees of separation to five – Interesting study by Sysomos which found that the most common friendship distance on Twitter was five steps which is down from the old six degrees of separation that we had in the 'old days.' Does anybody else think that out of all of the major social media networks Twitter will be the first to die out? – Being in the internet marketing industry, I have a pretty extensive knowledge on the subject and a wide of array of tools I use for my internet marketing arsenal. The thing is, I was extremely reluctant to get a Twitter account for my works because I think micro blogging networks are almost useless.
