I love this industry, While Google targets Link Buyers, smart people like Matt Cutts the guy that Google believes is the most relevant result for  “buy cheap Viagra online“is winning the game, btw Matt could you write about weight Loss and Online Poker next :)

Or get some seo advice grrr … So I decide to upgrade my IE8 to version 2, note I call it IE8 and not  Internet explorer 8, so off I go to http://www.live.com actually you are going to see my searching habits when in consumer mode and not SEO mode :)

1) open IE8 beta with Live toolbar installed

2) search in toolbar for ie8 version 2

3)  look at first page results :

4) shake head… ( I still have my relevancy T-shirt .. hoping to wear for SMX London 

5) search Google in live toolbar ( lets the live team know I was unhappy grrr )

6) search google for  :

7) download IE8 Version 2 beta for Number 1 position in Google shakes head again ( hat tip to Google for been Relevant )

8) starts reading emails and open Firefox to start SEO Browsing

Ok after searching and searching is there anything out there that can add toolbars or Addons on to Chrome, can anyone point me in the right redirect..

I want :

a Stumble Upon toolbar for Chrome
a Alexa toolbar for Chrome
a Google Toolbar would be nice even..

or just a Greasemonkey Plugin ???

The Crap Points :

1) It’s just a front-end to WebKit with all the cool bits pulled
2) Where are my Plugins
3) Privacy policy and default install scare me a little, if people think Mozilla is bad ho hum

The Awesome points:

1) It’s Fast, but then Firefox is fast when you first install it slows down with the more plugins you NEED
2) It’s create Application is awesome and that alone will be the reason I use it, but not has a browser so work?
3) Supports Flash and Java on install at least the current versions couldn’t find how to update flash thou ?

So Google Chrome a Firefox replacement it isn’t. Nobody is going to use chrome has a browser it’s just not finished, I feel that Google where pressured into releasing a half baked product because IE8 Version 2 was realesed 3 days ago, I do feel that the core engine is very very good and If Mozilla or IE can expand on it cool.. I believe that pictures paint a 1000 words so

Opera, Internet Explorer and Firefox

Google Chrome :

I was recently In London with my family (it’s was my son Miles 8th Birthday) so we went to Hamleys and I met and old Big Brother contestant Carol ( my Wife Becky has a funny story about this ).. ok so far NO issues, but my Son has a show n tell, on what they did over the summer, this is going to be in front of the Class and they get a PC and Big Screen so that all the pupils get to see…

So the 6 million dollar question is, should I let him Google it live, you see I had a falling out with the school over the fact that they wouldn’t use Live.com because “the jury’s still out on that one” ……

Hey come on, we have been waiting all day for the new source web browser Google Chrome. Where is the Google Chrome Download ? Matt Cutts talked about this on his blog only yesterday and I can’t wait for the feedback on this. Already its pending release has caused rants from the “too many web browsers” already brigade. How private is this browser going to be we wonder ? What info if any will be fed back to the mighty G ?

Personally I love open source products. Matt is using Chrome already so it must be pretty good?

what gets me is this seem more likely to end Firefox than IE, V8 engine scares the shit out of me, Google past security hasn’t been awesome and I won’t be installing it on any office system any time soon, Google claim to convert JavaScript through V8 to machine code… Hmmm I can’t see how the Bad People in this world will abuse it, but apparently there is already a 25,000 USD prize in a certain forum for the first injection POC… shake heads slowly I hope google have this secure

The truth is out there somewhere and with the Big Foot Press Conference today we will hopefully know the results of the DNA findings. Multiple tests are being carried out and will be announced. What happens if the Bigfoot story is confirmed as true ? What happens if the story is false? Will there be recourse to those who have orchestrated the whole event ? I wonder if Google will pull the site altogether ?

The wait is on for the final stages of analysis “the sequencing”. Let’s see what happens at the Big Foot Press Conference. What gets even weirder on this is that DaveN is on his way to Palo Alto  this coming week..

Yet more link bait this week ? Throughout the course of the last week we have been picking up on stories which may be true or false. This one is “Liz Taylor Murdered” and seems to have been started by E-mail spammers as if it has come from msnbc.com news. The breaking news headline  claims that Elizabeth Taylor has been found murdered in her home.  Similar emails were seen last week entitled CNN news. The ploy looks to be to gain clicks to the source website. The question is who thought of the Liz Taylor Murdered idea? Once again we puzzle over the spreading of such stories on the net and ask what if anything the major search engines can do about it ?

Google claims it hasn’t made significant changes to its mapping software. Yet local data for the Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia is not appearing. This is in sharp contrast to Google Earth which supplies local data down to building levels. (They must have the data then?)Microsoft again is the winner here with its  Virtual Earth product which seems to have no trouble at all in pinpointing dozens of cities in all the locations.
