Britney Spears Pregnant…..AGAIN!

Scott — Wed, 10 May 2006 01:40:29 +0000

I was reading through Newsvine and to my surprise, Britney Spears is pregnant again. She was such a good mother the first time around smoking while still pregnant, having the child welfare come to her home after finding out it had fallen out of its high chair while no one was watching it and who knows what else, that she decided she would go for round 2 of being a mother.

Mrs. Spears was on top of the pop world until she began being an idiot and getting married for about 45 minutes, getting a divorce and then dating and eventually marrying Kevin Federline. This girl could have had any man in the world she wanted, and she picked a thugged out white guy that thinks hes Vanilla Ice, with no job. Not that I can make fun of a man for not having a job, but still.

All I can say about Britney Spears’ second pregnancy is “Oops I did it again.”

Google going after Job Market

Scott — Tue, 28 Mar 2006 15:58:36 +0000

Back in January, there were talks of Google looking to buy yet another company. This time they had their Sauron like eye on a larger company by the name of Monster.com. The online job market is quickly becoming the easiest, fastest, and most used method of searching for jobs in todays market, and thats what Google wants; world domination in all aspects of everything on the interweb.

Since January there hasnt been much more talk of the Google / Monster acquisition. But today, I came across what looks like could be the beginning of their own Google Job Search. Basically it makes use of their new service Google Base and incorporates another one of its projects called Google Maps for a unique job searching experience. Rather than having employers post job openings and searchers post resumes, like Monster, Hotjobs and the other big players do, they crawl the sites that allready have the job postings listed and link directly to the posting. Beside the listings you can see the google map with each posting marked and easily see where the company is located and find driving directions to it.

It is still very early and basic, but over time Google will most likely put out a larger public beta that isnt ready for public use and it will die like all of their other recent attempts. Or maybe they are working on way to many projects at once and at some point in time they will revist and refine all that they are working on and have it all come together for them to move forward in a defined direction.

More Google Censorship! Google Shuts Down Logogle.com

Recently Google has begun doing a few forms of censorship. Mainly on the Chinese search results. Now that they are done with China, its on to bigger and better things to censor. Things such as an individuals webpage offering to change any text you input into a “Googleized” font. The site was called Logogle (pictured to the right), and offered to create a personalized page to look like Googles homepage, but added your own personalized text at the top. Now all thats left of the site is just an appology to Google.

“I know Apple, and you’re no Apple… “This is a truly historical meeting of the established and new media,” said Les Moonves, the head of CBS, about his network’s new video partnership with Google. Um, no, Les. So far, it’s just a really crap web site,” Ashlee Vance writes in her review for The Register.
