cheesman’s predictions for 2006
Here are my Top 5 pre-dictions for 2006, in no particular order: 1. It’s litigation, baby! - Like parents shut-ting down a good party, expect the lawyers to come out in full force in 2006. Between privacy concerns, content rights, technology ownership and everything in between, lawyers will be busy throwing around the wet blankets. 2. Acquisition [...]

SEO is hard. And it’s getting more and more difficult. That’s a good thing. I spoke with an SEO veteran earlier this week. He was really down. "SEO just isn’t what it used to be," he said.

22. December 2005
Well, they’ve done it. Google is testing the bounds of adding images to their highly successful text-only advertising model known as AdWords: The effect on online recruitment is a bit unclear, but envisioning a future where advertisers can easily add their logos, or other images, to such ads isn’t a stretch.
