This blog was started as a write-it all blog - to quench my thirst for writing, writing and even more writing. You will see that in May, this blog became active in a big way, and had averaged more than a post a day.

What is Google juice? These days, everyone is concerned about SEO, and it is good to start from the basics. Google Juice, in essence, is the value that Google gives to your site, for having a priceless link from a good site. The value adds up for each link, and you get better search rankings!

Google is at it again. They have acquired Blogger, Blogspot, Picassa, Measuremap, Analytics, YouTube, FeedBurner - the list goes on. Now, Google has acquired Panoramio, a Spanish image-sharing site. The perks seems to be that Panoramio allows users to upload images and locate the shot on Google Earth/Google Maps.
Some guys saw this acquisition coming a long time ago : Google had made Panoramio the default photo layer for Google Earth, which in turn helped Panoramio grow to over 1 million photos located on Google Earth.

Mahalo, a human-powered(!) search engine was launched by Jason Calacanis. Mahalo is the second innovative search site launched this year - the first being Powerset.
Calacanis hopes that Mahalo will beat Google, and win over the organic search results segment, which is now crowded by spam, MFAs(Made-For-AdSense) and wiki sites.
A flashback : Powerset launched with aims similar to Mahalo.
Mahalo, means “Thank You” in Hawaiian. Results are handpicked and classified into topics like as travel, music, television, movies, cars, food, health, news and sports.

The free site statistics tool, StatCounter, one of my favourites along with Google Analytics, has got a major feature upgrade. The log size has been increased by 400.
Earlier, in the free version, site stats were unlimited but, but detailed analysis of each visitor was available only for last 100 visitors.
Now, StatCounter has raised the bar to 500, according to the StatCounter blog.
