google: September 2007 Archives
Congratulations to Bernie who finally tied the knot! I re-read his post from yesterday and the penny dropped !
Segala's WP optimisation article is useless apart from the one tip on disabling unwanted / unncessary plugins. A lot of the other supposed "tips" have very little to do with Wordpress or are simply technically incorrect. My optimisation tip is simple - move to something saner.
Pavarotti has passed away. The knockon effect being that his official site has fallen over. Loads of media coverage.
Google reader now has a search function. I hadn't noticed that it was missing one! I suppose it depends on how you interact with things. If an article interests me I'll bookmark it.
The iPhone pricecut has upset a lot of early adopters (nah nah nah nah nah - told you so!) but Nokia's marketing department have taken advantage (according to Techcrunch)

Over the last few days there have been several reports of a new feature being rolled out to Adsense publishers. The new features allows publishers to explicitly list sites / domains that are allowed to use their code.
It's not clear what will happen to publishers who do not opt in.

The latest release of Google Earth comes with an Easter Egg (a hidden function / option).
Techcrunch picked up on the story from Marco Gallotta
And the nice thing is that it also works on Ubuntu!
Download the latest version for Linux. Install it (you'll need to change the permission first - chmod 700 GoogleEarthLinux.bin will probably work) and off you go.
Once Google Earth has launched simply hit CTRL - ALT - A (case insensitive) and you should be flying (or crashing!)
