Google calls for US to let in more migrants

(Times Online, UK)

“Google today called on the US government to allow greater numbers of migrant workers into the country as part of a wider push by the company into the area of politics.

The ability to attract highly skilled migrants into the technology industry was one of a number of issues, including privacy, child online safety and copyright protection, that were "fundamental to the future of the internet", the search company said, adding that it planned to take a greater role in influencing public policy in these and other areas.”

Google Is Watching You (Business Week)

“But when you type in a Web search, your words are stored by Google and other search providers, along with information tying those words to your personal computer.

If you surf the Web, the pages you visit and what you do on them are tracked with "cookies," tiny text files that download to your computer so they can report back to their ad network owners.

Many Web companies say the privacy concerns are, in many respects, overblown.

After all, the information collected online is tied to a number representing a particular computer [ IP (Internet Protocol) number, my note], not to a person's name or Social Security number.”

Great SEO results through relevant keywords

(Article Attic Article Directory)

“The most important consideration in Search Engine Optimization or SEO is in your selection of the most appropriate keyword(s).

Search engines operate on keywords and on how people search for information on the Internet. Not choosing the right keywords means that your website has been condemned to the loser's bin.

The only way to resurrect it then is to pay for traffic which can get very expensive.

But choosing the right keyword means that you have a better chance of getting free or nearly free traffic. This is how you will develop a profitable business through the Internet.”
