		<title>Live from Redmond&#8230;.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My Internet platform:
Firefox browser
Google Search &#8212; usually from Firefox toolbar
Yahoo Mail
Netvibes as start page/RSS reader
Yesterday as I used Microsoft&#8217;s Live.com page and new search features I was pretty impressed.  The whole experience needs to speed up quite a bit, and that may be non-trivial, but one could very easily see how Microsoft can integrate [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=19&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Paul discovers a core RevForce initiative</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What Paul considers SEO spam is really just Google RevForce in action.  
Here is an example
Would Wash U engage in SEO spamming?  I think not.  Google has tweaked its organic results to push down commercial sites.  Its a great way to encourage users to click on the paid links surrounding the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=18&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Why the Search Battle is actually a Desktop Battle.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the following post on his blog, Henry blodget and I exchanged some ideas on the search battle and why Ask.com is in a really precarious situation.  
In relaunching Ask.com, Barry Diller and the IAC crew are trying to suggest that the quality of their search is better than other outlets.  Part of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=17&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>RevForce Initiative</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Henry has the text of what Google CFO, Reyes, actually said.
Many people are picking up on the law of big numbers , but the more important thing to figure out is exactly how much these initiatives accelerated the growth rates over and above the organic amounts these last 18 months.
Until you understand how the much [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=15&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Hooray for Diller</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Ask.com launch is great and all, but count me as one who just doesn&#8217;t think it matters.
Henry &#8220;This is not Investment Advice&#8221; Blodget points out that he uses Yahoo for search largely because as a MyYahoo user, Yahoo search is the most convenient.  This highlights the fact that the &#8217;search&#8217; battle is actually [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=13&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Meebo vs. Trillian</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Having used both recently, I can&#8217;t get over the fact that Trillian is still a far better product than Meebo.  Can some of its fans please drop by and fill me in on Meebo?  what exactly the draw is with Meebo?  And what is Trillian&#8217;s deal, are they happy selling upgrades, or [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=12&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Search CPMs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure I understand John&#8217;s comment fully about the ratios, but there is definitely a point to be made about the high search CPMs.  
The search engines, their SEM counterparts, and the analysts with $600 price targets would like you to believe that search, as an advertising vehicle, will ultimately take  big [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=wizzbox.wordpress.com&blog=105624&post=11&subd=wizzbox&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
