  A Very Unfortunate Error For Farecast and Live
This morning, I was talking to Rob Kerry about some particularly competitive search phrases and looking around in the SERPs. We'd gone through most of the usual suspects when [cheap flights] came up. Google duly returned its top ten, and at the bottom, I noticed... 
 
    
    
  
  
  What Is Acceptable For "People Search Engines?"
I don't often get indignant about websites. Even bad ones. Sometimes I complain about what passes for Web 2.0 genius, but never before have I been really horrified by an online service. Spock.com horrifies me. I have never before felt like a website should cease to exist, but I am appalled at my experience with Spock. I'm in the process of having my personal information removed from the site at th...

You all know the drill, blog after blog, sifting through the duplicate content and article after article separating the useful information from corporate fluff.It was in this that I realized my big mistake, reading information for the sake of reading infor... 
 
    
    
  
  
  MSN's site: command is Confusing Me...
I'm working on a site review for a client, and I was checking to see how well the site was indexed across the major search engines. Normally we do a site: command and skip to the last page of results to get as accurate a count as we can; however, MSN's count is a little puzzling. When I first performed a count, it said the client's site had 180 pages indexed (it's a brand new site). Jumping to the...

  Why, Hello There MSN Image Search!
As a writer/editor for Drivl, I do a lot of image searches in order to add relevant, amusing pictures to supplement stories that either I've written or that one of our users has submitted. At first, I would default to Google for all of my image searching needs, but the relevance is often low (and sometimes porn-tastic). Yahoo! Images is sometimes better, sometim...
