Google Instant Search Happening This Instant

So here’s what’s happening. Google has announced the launch of Google Instant today in the US. If you haven’t done a Google search today, DO IT! You’ll see as soon as you type any letter into the search field, predictive technology is being used to predict your search query before you’ve even made it!

Should I Pay Attention to Bing?

The Yahoo and Microsoft Search Alliance is upon us.  Microsoft’s Bing search engine now powers all search results on Yahoo. And very soon, the advertising will be moved over as well.

Google Buys “Like.com”

Google recently purchased Like.com.  The Like.com homepage now has this to say:

“Like has been acquired by Google.

Since 2006, Like.com has been moving the frontiers of eCommerce forward one step at a time. We were the first to bring visual search to shopping, the first to  build an automated cross-matching system for clothing, and more. We didn’t stop there and don’t have plans to stop now. We see joining Google as a way to supersize our vision and supercharge our passion. This is something we are truly excited about.”

Google Teams with Motorola for Android 3.0 Tablet

Love love love the iPad and the idea of taking a computer the size of a notebook, anywhere and everywhere with me.

Android 3.0 Tablet… I am almost certain I will love even more.  Now I am sure the preference of the two comes down to each individuals needs but I think the Android’s apps are far superior to that of the iPhone.  They seem so much more interactive and alive compared to the iPhones ability to simply mimic a web browser.  Now as I can’t say for sure that the Android 3.0 Tablet will reign supreme over the iPad because I don’t really know what they will be targeting to set them apart.

Google vs. The World

As we all know Google is the giant when it comes to search engines. And when you are the Big boy you put yourself in the sights of anyone with ambition and/or drive to be numero uno.

According to Computerworld Google still reigns supreme at 65.8% of the search market last month . The thing is that Google actually lost .04% of it’s share. Remember this is global and .04% of search traffic is a huge number of people.

Crome2Phone in the Clouds… Google’s Voice Controlled Mobile Future

I have been getting really excited over the new mobile technology that seems to be coming out faster then I can keep up with it.  Last week it was Firefox Home for the iPhone and this week it is, my personal favorite, Chrome2Phone for the Android.  Now at first glance I thought they were the same application for different phones because they both are accessed through Google’s mobile platform, the Cloud.  True as this may be… soon I discovered what sets these two applications apart.

Is Social Media Marketing Dangerous?

I hear this once in a while. Odd but true . In fact I am convinced that the only danger there is in Social Media Marketing is to NOT be involved in using it!

There are many theories about your brain getting fried because of the Social networking. Or Losing your sanity because you are obsessively connected to your devices… Phones, Laptops and tablets.

I don’t think it’s true outside the foolishness of texting while driving.

Slide Into Google Me

TechCrunch broke the news last night of another Google purchase of a little company called Slide.  Slide just so happens to be a manufacturer of social apps for sites like Facebook, Bebo, Friendster, MySpace and even Orkut, based in San Francisco.  With Slide providing popular social applications like Rock Riot and Super Poke, to name a few, it is easy to see why Google would see them as such an asset.

Google Alarm

If you have wondered how much Google knows about you, here is a (humorous) solution: The Google Alarm Firefox Add-on.

Google Alarm can both visually and audibly notify you every time you send data to Google’s servers, and it isn’t just from Youtube or Gmail.  It could be from any site that uses Google Analytics, Google AdSense, embedded Youtube videos, etc.  You’ll be suprised!

The Mobile Marketing Race is On!

Microsoft is after Apple…Apple is after Google…and Google is going after the world!

The world is changing “technologically” right before our eyes and this means opportunity for you and your business.

I saw yesterday a brilliant man extremely successful and extremely influential in his area of expertise make a pointed statement against those in the Internet Marketing field.

His statement was that the Internet wasn’t a technology medium, but a people medium.
