Happy Birthday 9th to Google !

Friday, September 28th, 2007

Today, 27 September we are celebrating 9 years of Google Technology. From the bottom of my heart I want to say:

Happy Birthday to you, Google! I love you so much :)

Google’s co-founder Sergey Brin in 1999 says, “A perfect search engine will process and understand all the information in the world … That is where Google is headed.” Ya, I agree with him 100%.

Philipp Lenssen, the author of 55 Ways to Have Fun With Google says:

In-between being a search engine and staying one, this is what also happened during the last 9 years, in semi-particular order:

* The Google homepage goes out of Beta

* A Google Friends newsletter is started to address “Googlers,” originally the term for Google users

* Google teams up with RealNames to bring now-forgotten Internet Keyword support to their search engine

* Google bought a huge Newsgroup archive from Deja News and turned it into Google Groups. The first mention of Madonna on the internet is now owned by Google Inc.

* Google created a technology playground called Google Labs, where they release tools such as Google Sets

* Yahoo switches to Google results, but later changes their mind and develops their own search engine back-end to compete with Google and Microsoft in the club of the three only high-scale search engines worldwide

* Eric Emerson Schmidt, then 46, replaces Larry Page, then 28 years old, as boss of Google

* Google shows context-relevant AdWords in search results, and later AdSense on external websites

* Aaron Swartz starts posting news on Google on the Google Weblog

* Google releases more and more company blogs to communicate with people outside the company

* Google releases Gmail, which many thought was an April Fool’s prank due to the at the time incredible storage of 1 Gigabyte

* Google went through an Initial Public Offering, meaning the company gets special attention from stock market investors

* Google enters China and decides to compromise its mission by self-censoring human rights websites, proclaiming a change from “don’t ever be evil, period” to “scales balancing what Google thinks is least evil”

* Google releases a set of programming frameworks called GData

* Google releases a set of client-side, ad-powered JavaScript APIs, ditching support for their server-side, ad-free SOAP API

* Google releases a word processor, a spreadsheet editor, and later a presentations tool, all with a focus on online collaboration

* Google publishes their Google Apps suite for companies

* Google starts showing good-resolution photos of people on the streets as part of mining public information and making it accessible

* Google’s co-founder Sergey Brin in a speech given on a Google Developer Day says we’ve come full circle, as the generation which grew up with the web is now starting to create on the web, determining its shape… a self-increasing feedback loop causing exponentially growing development (or so one would hope).

* and much, much more.

Make Money by AuctionAds

Wednesday, June 6th, 2007

Today I receive an email from ReviewMe.com, telling me that  I can try out a great new money maker for my website, AuctionAds.com.  AuctionAds is owned in part by TLA (who also owns ReviewMe) and the results have been outstanding.  The great part about AA is that it can be run along with other ad systems like Adsense so there is no reason not to run it on my site and see how it performs.

They are offering a free $5.00 bonus for ReviewMe publishers who sign up this week.  Please note the minimum payout is $10.00 so earning my next $5 is as simple as leaving the AA ads running!

Did you realize that you can make money when visitors click on your “Ads by AuctionAds” link in your ad unit? AuctionAds offers a unique referral program where you will earn a percentage of all your referred publishers, meaning you can make a nice additional tidy sum of referral revenue on top of the money you make from the actual ads themselves.
So, take action now !

Globalwarming Awareness2007 in the Universe

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

Globalwarming Awareness2007 presents a slide show about the Universe. According to Wikipedia, the Universe is defined as the summation of all mass energy that exist and the space-time in which all events occur. There are 5 pictures in this slide that show us how small we are in the Universe. Enjoy this special slide presented to you by Globalwarming Awareness2007.

Globalwarming Awareness2007 will explain these pictures one by one:

Globalwarming-awareness2007-universe1: It’s amazing! Have you ever imagine? When these space things are compared each other…

Globalwarming-awareness2007-universe2: we become aware how small our Earth and how small we are…

Globalwarming-awareness2007-universe3: this is the great Universe!

Globalwarming-awareness2007-universe4: Jupiter is about one pixel in size. Earth is invisible at this scale.

Globalwarming-awareness2007-universe5: At this scale the Sun is about one pixel in size and Jupiter is invisible. Antares is the 15th star that the most bright in space. The distance is more than one thousand light-years far from Earth. A light-year is equal to 9,460,730,472,580.8 km. And then, where are we in the Universe? Can we still be proud of ourselves and say: “This is me!”? (Globalwarming Awareness2007).

GlobalWarming Awareness2007 Valentine Day

Globalwarming Awareness2007 News: Valentine Day History
There are varying opinions as to the origin of Valentine’s Day. Some experts state that it originated from St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. He died on February 14, 269 A.D., the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries. Legend also says that St. Valentine left a farewell note for the jailer’s daughter, who had become his friend, and signed it “From Your Valentine”. Other aspects of the story say that Saint Valentine served as a priest at the temple during the reign of Emperor Claudius. Claudius then had Valentine jailed for defying him. In 496 A.D. Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honour St. Valentine.

Gradually, February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. The date was marked by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers. There was often a social gathering or a ball.

A Valentine Logo from my globalwarming awareness2007 blog
Today I create a logo for this special Valentine Day. Next time I will tell you how to create logo and favicon. Here it is:

globalwarming-awareness2007-valentines
Pict-3: Globalwarming Valentine logo

In this Valentine Day - from my globalwarming awareness2007 blog - let us remember the Word of GOD:

“And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16 NKJV).

So he answered and said, “ ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,’ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’” (Luke 10:27 NKJV)

With doing those we can make a Valentine Day becomes a special and blessed day. With love we can also do better actions for globalwarming awareness2007 :)

However, according to the Meteorology and Geophysics Agency (BMG), the rainy season has not yet reached its peak. “There is a probability of heavy rain up until the end of February,” said a member of BMG’s Public Meteorology Information staff.

Therefore, there could be more flooding in the capital city again.

The post-flood rehabilitation process has been going on in Jakarta, including the cleaning-up of rubbish and mud in many places. (reported by MES for globalwarming awareness2007)
