Google joins blog search

Google launches blog search tool from Inforworld...

To give the engine a test lap, I plugged in my own name, since I both blog and write news stories for InfoWorld. The returns were pretty reasonable, until the second page of results when I came upon a news story that we posted on August 29, 2005. True, it had my byline on it, but the article was not a blog. I kept sorting through
the results and all was well until page 6, and then they became less relevant, though I did not come across any more news stories or non-blog items.

Innovate - Word of Mouth via Blogs

I've been pitching the benefits of blogs, social software, and social networks to small businesses and big ones. Most of the people I contact don't know about any of these technologies or concepts.

WTF? from A VC to "hey robert, what's the deal with longhorn opm?" from Hugh on Gapingvoid have more about MS's latest bad idea.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain...

Attention has been getting a lot of attention these days. Seriously! In this "Attention Economy", what we're all looking for is simply attention. We chat via IM, text messaging, email, blogs, etc. What are we really doing though? Aren't these really attention exchanges? As my partner, Jim, so deftly calls them, they're reacharounds. I'm not going to go into exactly what he's comparing them to, but essentially, you scratch my back, I"ll scratch yours is what it all boils down to. When we ask someone "How are you? Do we really want to know? How many times have you seen someone you work with every day and answered, "Im good, and you" before they've really even asked. It's an automatic...Anyway, I digress.

Scenario 2. You are losing business. Customers are defecting to competitors. Your web site is like a museum - look but do not touch and customer experience is non-existent. Your information is outdated, hard to find and reflects poorly on your brand. There is a significant cognitive difference between browsing, shopping, comparing, choosing and buying.

Scenario 3. You have problems - gaps - that your business strategy and IT applications fail to address. Your employees, customers, and stakeholders want to get work done. You need to innovate and help people find solutions.
There is no easy way to capture, share, and track important yet informal information. The kind of information that is not organized or reused - it should be - but tends to get lost. The kind that helps you make better decisions, improve work flows, and customer support. Read more....
