Alexa websearch powered by Google?

on Monday, July 25th, 2005

I saw something very strange a few days ago.
Alexa is an Amazon company, offering stats about websites. And on their page if you’d like to search the web, the web search is powered by Google.
Also A9 an Amazon company offering websearch.
So why use Google, if they are both Amazon company. Isn’t A9 is a competition for Google (or vice versa)? Why support competition instead of your own company’s search engine?
Simply non-sense.
Maybe an AdSense revenue trick?

Majority Of Customers Prefer Blu-Ray

on Friday, July 15th, 2005

From Slashdot:

A poll shows Blu-ray as the preferred choice, as conducted by Penn, Schoen and Berland Associates. Customers were given a side-by-side comparison of HD-DVD and Blu-ray. The results were that 58 percent of the 1,200 polled chose Blu-ray, and 26 percent were undecided. Generally speaking, HD-DVD is preferred by those seeking to reduce manufacturing costs while Blu-ray is preferred by those more interested in features and data storage.” Sony’s PS3 is to use the Blu-Ray format.

Roboform

on Friday, July 15th, 2005

Hello,
this time I’ll tell you about RoboForm.
Roboform is a tool that fills all the forms in a webpage for you.
It’s very simple to use. I use it everyday.
Simply install it on your USB drive (no install needed). Boom. You’ve passwords everywhere you go.
It encrypts your saved passwords with 3-DES or 1-DES (you select). So there is no problem if you loose you USB key.

It also has a desktop version too…
