Why Bing is Gaining on Google
Posted on July 10, 2009 ·
Bing is gaining on Google. Do you know why? Check these Google image search results for the keyword Bing. My friend Chris Yeh could come up with all sorts of theories on why she is winning, but I’ll skip the details.

Keep Your Paws Off My PC, Microsoft

<rant>
I’ve had it. I’m tired of Microsoft programs taking over my computer without permission. This time it’s IE7 – yes, I know, IE8 is out, but I could not care less.

Accessorize Your Algorithm, Amazon :-)

I think this email promo I’ve just received from Amazon after purchasing the replacement filters (first item shown) speaks for itself. I guess if I had bought a kitchen sink or some furniture, they would offer a house as accessory.
