Has Google Already Lost The Location Battle? Today Mark Zuckerberg announced a bunch of stuff. Go read Techmeme to hear about Single Signon, and its new deal platforms.
Google Wars with Apple and Facebook I've now heard from three separate Google employees that Google will release a news feed that will compete with Facebook and Twitter. I expect to see a demo at Google's IO conference in April. For hints at what's coming you MUST look at two foundation-level services: 1. Google Profiles. Google is asking you to voluntarily add all sorts...
Google + Will + Save Flash, a Developer Who Uses it Says I just recorded a 45 minute conversation on my iPhone while we sat on the deck at the Half Moon Bay Ritz with Luke Kilpatrick about Flash, Silverlight, Palm Pre...
The Google Reef Today Ill be at Google to attend the press release of the Nexus One, the latest in a line of Android-powered phones and the first that will have Googles brand name on it. I dont expect that the phone will be the real news (if you do, you can already read Engadgets review and other news about it on Techmeme).
2010: The Year SEO Isn't Important Anymore? The writing is on the wall. Small business marketing is moving away from focusing on SEO. Why do I say that? Because, well, Google and Bing are changing the rules so often and are getting so good at figuring out the real businesses that deserve to be on pages. Search Half Moon Bay Sushi and you get real answers from sites that didnt focus on SEO.
Bing Soon to Tweet TechCrunch and others are saying that Microsofts Bing search engine is adding Tweets soon. Microsoft has finally figured out the strategy to...
Powerful Moves by Google Google has been doing a lot of stuff for us lately. Last week Google shipped Latitude which lets you track your friends and lets them track you (at least if you have a phone that works with the service " my Nokia N95 worked, but my iPhone is not yet supported). I used it with Microsofts Jeff Sandquist last Thursday as I was meeting him for breakfast and he said he could see my...
Why Google Will Get More Hype Than Yahoo Today Google shipped a new thing last night, called Latitude. I already put it on my cell phone. It lets me tell my friends where I am. Pretty cool, right. But todays Yahoo announcement of Search Pad should have gotten more hype, but it wont. As I type this at 7:35 a.m. my old boss, Vic Gundotra, who now is VP of Engineering at Google, solidly has hold of the top spot on Techmeme.
First hour with Google's new browser Im playing with Googles new Chrome browser. So far, damn, this is nice. Well see if it survives a week. Now for the Pros and Cons of Chrome...
Google still has a sense of humor
Google and Facebook are Fighting the Next Battle Think about something youve purchased recently. How did you decide to buy that thing? In my buying behavior I find that I can split it up into three phases: 1. Need generation. This is what happens when someone shows you something you didnt know you wanted...
Google Acquires Video Site Omnisio Google has bought video annotation site Omnisio to have their team join the YouTube team. Omnisio, as covered before, allows users to mix together YouTube videos.
New search engine appears: will you use it? Techcrunch has the details. So do tons of other blogs. Search engine guru Danny Sullivan has a great post about the new engine, Cuil, (cool). I wasnt pre-briefed or anything.
I don't feel sorry for Yahoo I keep trying to ignore this years biggest technology industry news story. Id rather try out the latest Twitter client (TweetDeck is the one on my screen right now and its pretty cool).
Will Live Search use Mahalo to change the game? On Thursday I interviewed a few executives at Microsoft. A few of those videos will have to wait in line (we have two weeks of inventory that needs to get done first) but because of the...
How will Yahoo heal after Microsoft walked away? Yahoo is a bleeding animal. Left lying, gasping for its breath, after a larger animal (Microsoft) struck and then walked away after it proved too difficult to eat. (Just announced minutes ago).
Google about to drop the other shoe on Microsoft?
Has Microsoft caught up to Google? Barney Pell, CEO of Powerset (a company thats building a new kind of search engine) tells me that Microsoft has caught up to Google search relevancy (he was at the Bil conference yesterday).
Google kicking butt on iPhone My old boss, Vic Gundotra, has been showing off a new iPhone app from Google and also trotting out some numbers we first heard at the iPhone Dev Camp:
Google's new Reader Features OK, Google has added a bunch of new features to its RSS Reader over the past week. What are the big ones? Theres now a social network. Along the left side...
Google makes moves to protect organic relevancy TechCrunch is reporting on Googles moves to protect organic relevancy in its search results. Good for Google. Ive gotten attacked by PayPerPosters who dont understand...
Appleman Raves About Google’s Custom Search I had lunch today with Dan Appleman who, back in the early 1990s, wrote the most important Visual Basic programming book:
Microsoft's Search A Lot Better Than It Used To Be Damn, I saw some people talking about how much better Microsofts Live Search was and I just tried a few searches and, indeed, its a lot better than it used to be. .
Google Reboots its Master Plan When I was at Google today I learned that about a week ago someone erased the entire Google Master Plan.
Why Blinkx Didn't Get YouTube Deal Lots of good stuff on my new link blog (done thanks to Google Reader). I read hundreds of feeds so you dont have to. Theres a feed here too.
Pluggd, Woz, and seven minutes of Flock Ever want to look into a podcast, er, netcast without listening to it? Well, Pluggd.com is your service. I visted them today and they crawl the Web looking for audio (and soon video) content, like...
It's the small things at Google that impress I visited the Googleplex for the third time yesterday. Im still thinking through what I learned that was different from prior trips. More later (they didnt have me sign an NDA...
I Thought Google was a Search Company... Hmmm, I thought Google hired all the world's smartest search-engine experts. Don't they have a few PhD's hanging out at Google? So, please explain these results...
Matt Cutts, of Google, on Metrics The other day I wore my "I'm not Matt Cutts" T-shirt around Silicon Valley. That's always fun cause it gets weird stares. Sometimes people are interested enough to ask...
Google Sends Aspirin to Blogger Im reading RSS feeds again. I find Im enjoying those a lot more than reading TechMeme or TailRank alone. Why? Cause you find the small stories.
RawSugar Updates Tag-based Search I spent some time last week with Bill Lazar and Offer Ben-Shachar of the search engine they call "RawSugar." They showed me an early version of their...
How Much Do You Search? Joe Schmidt asks "how much do you Google?" and then shares his stats. I wish MSN had a feature like that so I could watch how much I use it vs. Google and share that with you.
Ask Interviewed I just read John B's interview with Jim Lazone from Ask about relevance, google relationship and askmail.
