Google Adsense Ads have Started Scrolling!
I just was amazed to discover that Google has very cleverly altered the way Adsense Ads are displayed. The two scroll buttons after "Ads by Google" suddenly started doing a magic. Visitors (if interested of course) can now click on these little buttons to see multiple (five sets or maybe more) set of related Ads.
Once again Google proves they are on track of the constant innovation - thumbs up to Google!

Google Indexed my Page within a few Minutes
This morning I posted one of my blog entries a few minutes ago. With my utter surprise I discovered that Google has already indexed it. That is something I always dreamed of and everybody probably too, but remained a challenge technologically for so long.
Has Google been able to overcome that hurdle. Well, time will tell. But a real time index capability is an ideal requirement for a search engine of 21st century, and Google obviously have that potential.
(Can we also dare to dream of real time view of Planet Earth using Google Earth. I am feeling like intruding into the deep of Amazon rain forest to observe what events are taking place there lately :)

The Web is more a Social Creation than a Technical one
Tim Berners-Lee summed up the purpose of creation of the internet:

Quote:
The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect — to help people work together — and not as a technical toy. The ultimate goal of the Web is to support and improve our weblike existence in the world. We clump into families, associations, and companies. We develop trust across the miles and distrust around the corner.
