 | Lately I've been the bearer of AdSense updates news, and today is no exception. AdSense reporting now offers the ability to separate out Link Unit based ads from the traditional Content Ads. Some useful information comes along with that: the ability to see page CTR versus link unit page CTR. … |
| | Google has finally implemented something that I've been requesting for quite awhile ... The ability to group statistics by day, week, or month. This is an immensely useful tool when trying to chart trends and patterns. For example, instead of just being able to group statistics by day, we now … |
 | Please see [url=http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry2285.html]this story[/url] for a correction. |
 | There is none. That's why it's a rumor. |
| | I just logged into my Google AdWords campaign management to find a new feature: [url=https://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=80588&hl=en_US]demographic bidding[/url]. This new feature allows you to bid on, or exclude, certain demographic groups, such as users of a certain age or gender. A new reporting tool in the campaign management settings shows you a … |
 | Two and a half hours a week really isn't excessive, IMO. However, I agree there is a time and place for it.  |
| | This is rather belated news, but I figured it was worth posting anyways. Apple has recently unveiled larger capacity versions of the iTouch and iPhone. The iTouch, originally only available in 8 gig and 16 gig versions, now boasts a whopping 32 gig version with a $500 pricetag. The iPhone … |
| | According to a [url=http://www.reuters.com/article/technologyNews/idUSN1325839520080313]story on Reuters[/url], it appears that Google is planning on using their newfound acquisition of the DoubleClick ad server to launch a new (and free) Ad Manager service ... essentially providing a free ad server to publishers (mind you a service that mid to large size online … |
| | I am disgusted. However, I can't really see hackers doing this because it just isn't the mentality of the demographic. |
| | When I attended the Jeeves retirement party at Search Engine Strategies 2005 in NYC, I never thought that the makeover from AskJeeves.com to Ask.com would end with the site being rebranded, only a very few years later, as a women's niche search engine. Can we say [I]floundering[/I]? AskJeeves originally debuted … |
| | I logged into my Google Analytics account tonight only to be presented with a new option: Benchmarking Beta. Apparently you can opt into a program that lets Google anonymously datamine all of your statistics. (At first you're always thinking why on earth you would want to opt into this.) However, … |
| | In an effort to compete with the Blackberry, and gain momentum in the business world, the iPhone now has full support for Microsoft Exchange, one of the major factors holding the professional back from splurging on an iPhone. While Apple is now going full force trying to make the iPhone … |
| | Google, in my opinion, made a couple of mistakes in Q1 with the way they've handled changes in Google AdSense. For example, they made the change of making only AdSense titles and urls clickable instead of the entire ad unit, saying that it will lead to fewer people clicking accidentally, … |
| | Well, it looks like the latest installment of Microsoft's browser, IE8, is now [url=http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/ie8/readiness/Install.htm]available for download[/url] in beta status. While I'm not daring enough to give it a go myself, word on the street is that, while Microsoft boasts it passes the ACID2 test, it renders most sites rather awkwardly, …  |
| | I love the last line of your story, that they released a statement acknowledging they were doing this and that now they aren't, so now it's okay to go ahead and buy their software. |
| | Sounds like you had a fun day. I couldn't imagine not having four Apple stores 10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes away from me. Oh, the joys of New York! |
| | Awesome work, Davey! |
| | I'm an iPhone owner and very happy with it. I can also type on the touch keyboard just fine. I used to have a Treo (Windows mobile version) and I rarely did web browsing on it, so I don't majorly miss the lack of browsing speed. It's fine for email, …  |
| | Did Google have a right? Absolutely. They can do what they want with their own software. What's important to note is that this change has ONLY affected those little green pixels in the Google toolbar, so far at least. Internal page rank and traffic levels from Google have not been … |
| | Shiny new Leopard seems mighty tempting to me, but I also have to admit that I have both a Windows and a Mac machine feet from each other, and always tend to gravitate towards my Windows box. I have to admit though, my mac is rather old right now (first …  |
| | Very awesome. Looking forward to this feature! |
| | I have to say that I am one of those Wii people, attracted by the prospect of being able to play those 1990s classic Nintendo games I used to love and (for the first time) current games despite not having a masters degree in MMORPGs or having grown up on … |
| | Test ... please ignore. Thanky. |
| | Not being a huge fan of music, I've never owned an iPod. However, I just couldn't resist an iPhone last month and I have to say I love it. It looks as if the new iPod Touch has just about the exact same interface as the iPhone. From the screenshots, … |
| | I think that everyone is so focused on spam being the problem that we're not realizing that the real underlying issue is that nobody can fathom a single question that a human would know the answer to but a computer wouldn't be able to figure out. Is that a good … |
| | I can just hear it ... "While you wait for the party you've dialed to answer their phone, stay tuned for these messages from AdWords advertisers ..." |
| | The link to the PDF report results in a 404 error for me. |
| | I agree with jbennet. I do know of some cheap ISPs that add their own "Sponored By" line to the bottom of emails (in a similar fashion to Hotmail). But I don't think even a free email service would go so far as to add a couple of paragraphs including, … |
| | I think it was clicked on more for the curiosity factor than people who were just too click happy for their own good. |
| | This morning I logged into Google Analytics and noticed a message mentioning a brand new interface, and yet, everything looked the same. Now, a couple of hours later, I just logged back in and, indeed, noticed a massive revamp for Google Analytics. The first thing I notice is the much … |
| | I think that whomever initially came up with the idea doesn't know how blogs work. If they can't trust their soldier to not post in his blog, he shouldn't be privy to top secret information, because he could just as easily say something in real life.  |

| | It seems to me like the distro is being created for morality's sake when it's completely not practical. I mean ... no 3D acceleration? That's very progressive and forward thinking of them to put energy into a new distro which purposefully has no driver support by design. It seems as … |
| | It's been a couple of years now that Google has been in the contextual advertising game, serving up ads not just in the search results, but also across the network of AdSense publishers. AdSense has since become a dream come true for many small publishers realizing they can make some …  |
| | He obviously means IntelliTXT. And no, it wouldn't be illegal to see IntelliTXT ads. But it would be illegal for companies based out of Utah to purchase IntelliTXT ads for trademarked keywords such as 'microsoft'.  |
| | There is already, no? |
| | I will always be an [search]Alchemy[/search] fan. |
| | I don't know how I'd be able to survive without Google. That's a bit extreme, jwenting :) |
| | A recent visit into Google's [URL="http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/"]Webmaster Tools [/URL]has brought a new section to my attention which I would imagine would be of much interest to SEOs: Internal and External links. The table of Internal links seems interesting - a listing of pages on your domain that have links pointing to … |
| | Sorry, I haven't yet had a chance to code attachments into the blogs. Although it is on my list, but not one of the higher-ups right now. |
| | Re: Jbennet's Blog. 2) This can be fixed by disabling User Account Control. (Look under User Accounts in the Control Panel) 3) I'm not sure about this but maybe you can try running it in Compatibility Mode? 8) I don't like the black color scheme either but you can revert to the old-style … |
| | I'm probably wrong (take what I say with a grain of salt) but I believe that a tweaked version of Ubuntu, fondly nicknamed Goobuntu, has been circulating internally among Google employees for some time now. Might be where the rumor got started.  |
| | It's completely ridiculous to base this study on 16 year olds - or anyone in the teenage age range for that matter. How many 16 year old guys know what love is or are dating the people they end up marrying for that matter? The study just makes no sense. |

| | I would like to apologize to everyone who received multiple and malformed newsletters this month. There were some major mail server issues going on ... the first of which being I was trying to send out 150,000 emails over SMTP, and the majority of them were being dropped. Unfortunately ... … |
| | I have an XBox 360 and have my eyes on a Nintendo Wii. No interest in Sony PS3. The reason? I am not a hardcore gamer, and enjoy my XBox 350 games of UNO, PGA Tour Golf, Sonic the Hedgehog, and various racing games. I am looking forward to getting …  |
| | Seems to me like it's more about home-grown recycable paper (that you recycle yourself instead of through a plant) than a printer. |
| | Congratulations on being Dugg :) |
| | Well that puts my brand new Dell that took me away from DaniWeb for over a month to shame! |
| | I made the mistake of installing all of my software, and then imaging my hard drive so that when things go awry, I can restore my computer to a pristine setup of everything I use freshly installed. The problem is that I sorta forgot to run all of my activation … |
The End.
