A futuristic and impartial search engine is finally here!

Yes, you heard that right. Google seems to be growing old and partial day after day, making webmasters sick of so the called 'PageRank'. Today, the biggest headache for administrators is to customize their websites according to the search engines, which employ complex algorithms for indexing the websites on the basis of links. So, even if a person writes something that deserves the real publicity, he is devoid of the same, and the reason is - poor links. Such a pathetic scenario literally begs for a change.

Well, for now, there is no need to worry, as Earthfrisk.org has come to the rescue. It is an out-of-the-box search engine which has the capability to rule the Internet. It is based on an entirely different concept which may prove to be useful for people to get apt results.

This Search Engine displays combined results from premier search engines which include Google, Yahoo!, MSN, Ask, Clusty and many others. But the best part is, people can rate and comment the sites themselves to improve the results. All this forms that concept which is termed as Color Value(CV), which is analogous to pagerank.

And to add to the fun, they have started their toolbar, currently for Internet Explorer and Firefox(Hope they extend it to Opera and Safari). Bloggers can also add their own logo and make a custom toolbar which can be placed in their blogs, thereby increasing traffic to their blogs. They can also promote their posts using this toolbar.

On the whole, I can say Earthfrisk has the scope to rule the Internet search industry, with revolutionary concept, which will not only benefit webmasters, but also people who need apt content to go through.

Expanding the Gooo of Google .........

It all started with a few computers, a garage and two people, Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Today, it has a market capitalization of over USD 2 billion(correct me). Throughout, Google has been dominating the minds of all those web publishers who hope to make it big on the Internet. This very moment you are reading this article, atleast 20-25 searches are being made! These days, Google has other intentions. Almost suddenly, tons of free softwares and services have popped up, softwares that bear the Google logo. And the most important of all, most have them are out-of-the-box and more user-friendly. Personally, I found these softwares quite tantalizing initially, but then, I figured out that these are meant only for computers with a good configuration. And what's more, it is planning to launch a free mobile Operating system which works in all mobiles!

My favourite amongst all those is SketchUp. Earlier I thought Google Earth was the best. But with SketchUp, you can make real-life 3D images and charts. I'm planning to make the header image with Sketchup. The other favourites include searching US patents, gadgets(I don't know why they are called so), Orkut, Blogger(of course!), and to some extent, Google Trends. One can take a peek into Trends to find out the latest searching trends, favourite searches from all over the world. Some even optimize their web content after knowing the search trends(I don't do it unfortunately). The book search is a good way to find some interesting articles. For others, Blogger and Orkut make it to the top.

Everyday, Google is spreading its wings extensively. But Google needs to have look around. People don't know why they are being banned from Adsense, controversies surface due to lack of security in Orkut, a host of scripts in Gmail slow down your Inbox loading......and the list goes on. There are many technical glitches which Google needs to improve on. That's the gooey stuff from Google. I won't be surprised if Google continue the same trend(to be very frank!). Quantity without quality may prove to be disastrous for a company like Google.

The other day, I read an article in the newspapers about Google entering the energy market. It proposes to enter the solar power industry to feed its huge data centres all over the world. It hopes to save as much power as it can, in a bid to make the world a greener place to live. According to the news report, Google is planning to generate about 1 Gigawatts of power to feed its servers. Now that is something out-of-the-box!!

Many believe Google can surpass Microsoft in the coming years. It has almost entirely dominated the web world with its whacky services and softwares. I personally like Google for its support for pure innovations. I've managed to watch some documentaries based on Google, where I came to know the atmosphere inside Google. In all, Google is a one-of-a-kind company, which I hope, will be the leader in innovations.

My Set of Blogging Rules For The People of The Blogosphere

After almost 4 months of blogging and some rigorous blog-surfing, I have managed to compile a set of blogging rules. These rules aren't compulsory, but if you try and stick to them, maybe you can prosper in this ever increasing blogosphere, with as many as 50,000+ blogs published per day(correct me) slug it out to become the best in terms of design, content, and most important of all, visitors. Well, enough of stats, let's get down to business.....

• The most important rule is to create original content. One must refrain from copying content from other sites, who knows, someone may catch you red handed.


• I came across this very recently. Whenever you write words in capital letters for your post titles, it implies that you are shouting that particular word. For instance, the post title below contains the word 'end' in caps, which means that I'm trying to shout or stress upon that particular word.


• When you want to show any expression, you write it, generally, within brackets; like raising hands, or yawning, etc. But in the blogosphere, I found they usually write it within asterisks(*). For instance, I want to say,....(yawning)I'm bored...., I'll have to express it as .....*yawning*I'm bored....., hope you get it.


• Many people blog to earn some extra income. Some of them get so excited by the thought that they jump on the monetizing services within days of publishing their first post. I would say that folks should switch to these services after at least three long months of some good blogging and building some content.


• Don't simply pour you content. Make a post or two per week, so that these posts remain on the main page to get some attention. I came across some blogs that make about 3-4 posts a day! If this is the case, then not all of your posts will get that attention which they deserve. I would recommend about 1-2 posts per week.


• This rule I consider it equally important. Visit other blogs or websites. Don't just be inside your blog world. You need to come out of it and visit blogs that belong to your category. Make a condensed list of blogs you find interesting and keep visiting them, so that YOU are noticed by others. That does not mean spamming. You just need to express seriously. Build up a community, make friends, interact with them. Then slowly, the word spreads and you blog gets the attention it deserves.

Did I miss something? Please feels free to add some more of these rules.

Get paid to try, review, click, surf.......you search for it, you get it. And now there's a new branch-dating advice. It's set to capture a chunk of the business in the internet world.

Thanks to the West's influence all over the world, dating has become a sort of a fad. "You in college and you don't go for a date?... Ahh, that's awful" These are today's responses. Gardens, beaches, parks, places of national interest(lol)..you name it...you find young couples scattered all over the place. And as dating keeps getting better and better, new techniques start to evolve. Dating advice finds place here. Earlier, it was women who needed advice to cope up with their men. But now the scenario has changed. With women becoming more fussy, it's time for men to seek advice. WIth time, many sites have come up with the idea of giving advice to men on how to improvise their women-handling skills.

The Seduction Bible is one of them. This site is complete with books, podcasts, and other reference materials to boost your self confidence in meeting, attracting and dating women. And yes, there are interesting experiences of young individuals, that are worth going through. Do you have any problems in your dating phase? Feel free and vent your problems here.

10 reasons to use Google Analytics

Till now, the word has spread about Google's new service - Google Analytics. To start with, it is a tool to monitor the visitors to a website. Here are 10 reasons as to why use Google Analytics......

1. It is the best tool to count the number of visitors to the website. It gives the most accurate count for the same, while other hit counters count even the number of webmaster visits.



2. The tools gives you detailed information on the traffic sources. Sources are classified in a great manner.



3. Visitors are classified into various groups. One such group is Unique visitors. Thanks to this classification, one can easily estimate how many different users visited your site.



4. The dashboard consists of an array of flash objects. Just one glance and you know what's the status.



5. It also tracks the geographical location of the visitors. For instance, if there are more number of visitors from the UK, then you know that you have to give more attention to the British crowd.



6. A list of keywords is displayed using which the crowd followed your site. This plays a major role in SEO.



7. An option which I consider as important is Goal conversion rate. You can set up various goals and keep a good track of them.



8. With a single account, you can monitor various websites. This is one of the best features of Analytics.



9. Do you have a Google AdWords account? If yes, then you integrate it with Analytics for better results.



10. With the detailed graphs, pie diagrams, and the detailed information which they provide is enough to make you understand what to do next.

So, what's YOUR opinion?

Yes, you heard that right!! Yahoo! finally launched its much awaited free SMS service. Now you can send free SMSes directly from your Yahoo! mail. You won't be charged for this service but the receiver may have to shell out a nominal amount to his/her service provider. For now, this service is started only in selected areas and will spread out very soon. Yahoo! has launched this service a bit late due to the testing work, etc. but now members can make full use of this service.
