Last week Gary Taylor was probably thanking his lucky stars that he was sleazy enough to video tape a one night stand he had with a woman. The video footage he took was the only thing that kept him out of jail after a woman played the old ‘he raped me!’ card the morning after. [...]
The idea behind a social search engine is tapping into the knowledge of web users in a non-obtrusive yet effective way.

Mitch Mitchell and his agent would have you believe the reason they haven’t found a buyer in Melbourne for their Steve Irwin statue is because nobody wants to buy it.

Today we have informed Googlers that we plan to reduce the number of roles within our sales and marketing organizations by just under 200 globally.
