Great article about Google’s Patent Filing

Among many things about blogs and search engine marketing that most veteran bloggers have known for awhile is that publishing frequency matters…a lot! Coverage of the Google patent by Google Blog News Channel states that:

“The patent also answers some questions. Why did Google become a domain registrar? To have access to site historical data, which it will now use in its rankings. Why did Google purchase Urchin? To use that data for site rankings. Does the Google toolbar help determine rankings? You’re damn right it does”.

A collegue of me will visit Les Blogs. and I am really curious about what I get reported cause I have only one question: is there any common interest within the company to work with blogs? etc. etc.
2 Other people from the list I know in person (LOL, only from mail).

For me there is no time to visit Les Blogs, I have other things to do. I’m busy with product development and that is consuming almost all my time.

Tsja.. stom .. artikeltjes open en bloot laten indexeren.

Michiel Frackers schrijft een entry over het geld verdienen met webloggen.

De zorgen om ‘veel’ geld te verdienen via een weblog zullen voor mij velen malen groter zijn dan de 500 dollar die ik nu in een jaar met mijn websites verdient heb. Dus webloggen is hobby, dat ik daarbij 2 dollar per dag verdien omdat een aantal bezoekers trouw klikt: dat is dan mooi meegenomen. Trouwens, ik verdien 1 dollar, de rest genereert mijn vrouw met haar Webculinair.nl wat wel een doelgroepen website is.

De tijd wat sommige websites in content steken is zoveel en met zoveel mensen gedaan: een droge boterham valt niet of nauwelijks te verdienen in zowel dit kikkerlandje of daarbuiten. Je zal dan bovenmatige kwaliteiten moeten bezitten om te kunnen scoren.

Eigen content is ver te zoeken.

Van daar ook: ik schaar met met AroundMyRoom niet gauw bij groepjes. Ik doe wat ik leuk vind en volg de trends die ik interessant vind.
Zo was er een periode dat ik RSS evangeliseerde, nu is het weer wat anders. Niet blijven hangen in 1 net, gewoon lekker globetrotten en doen wat je leuk vind.

I’m skeptical about podcasting. I’m skeptical about who’s doing it, who’s going to do it, and who’s going to listen to it. In short, I don’t think podcasting is going to get very far into the mainstream
:source:

So True:
– I do pocasting but where do you put your files?, many people do not have the storage yet, but podcast throught feeds need the file to be on the same server to create a valid podcast feed

– Time: create a potcast takes a lot of time including upload and creating an entry

More than 22 million American adults own iPods or MP3 players and 29% of them have downloaded podcasts from the Web so that they could listen to audio files at a time of their choosing. That amounts to more than 6 million adults who have tried this new feature that allows internet “broadcasts” to be downloaded onto their portable listening device. [source]

6 Million: ha ha ha .. funny, I totally do not believe it.
Especially if you have made an survey with ‘only’ 2201 adults [pdf source]

Podcasting: It’s created a hype but it is not that used as much as you think.
