The Filter Bubble
february 2012 by fjordaan
So when Eli Pariser explained the filter bubble concept and then called on them from the main stage to change how they do business, it wasn’t at all clear how they’d react. Watch the video to see what happened:

Real-Life Examples Of How Google's "Search Plus" Pushes Google+ Over Relevancy
january 2012 by fjordaan
The new Google “Search Plus Your World” feature — which I’m now simply calling “Search Plus” — has just gone live for me. Huge debate erupted yesterday over whether it somehow favors Google+. I can see now that it clearly does, even more than I thought. Here’s a closer look at the changes, including how they turn Google+ into an essential social network for any search marketer.

Buzz by Matt Cutts: Hitwise
february 2011 by fjordaan
I've been skeptical about Hitwise's "search success rate" metric since 2009. Here's a comment I left on this blog post http://weblogs.hitwise.com/us-heather-hopkins/2009/09/bing_leads_in_successful_canad_1.html back then:

Marco.org - Google's decreasingly useful, spam-filled web search
january 2011 by fjordaan
I’ve been frustrated as well by Google’s apparent defeat by spam. It’s not a sudden issue — it’s been gradually worsening for a few years. When I ask Google for something, it’s usually from these types of queries:

Three's a Trend: The Decline of Google Search Quality - Anil Dash
january 2011 by fjordaan
Now, is all this anecdotal evidence reliable? Perhaps not. What is worth noting now is that, half a decade after so many people began unquestioningly modifying their sites to serve Google's needs better, there may start to be enough critical mass for the pendulum to swing back to earlier days, when Google modified its workings to suit the web's existing behaviors.

Dishwashers, and How Google Eats Its Own Tail
january 2010 by fjordaan
Over the weekend I tried to buy a new dishwasher. Being the fine net-friendly fellow that I am, I began Google-ing for information. And Google-ing. and Google-ing. As I tweeted frustratedly at the tend of the failed exercise, "To a first approximation, the entire web is spam when it comes to appliance reviews".

Steve Clayton: Geek In Disguise : The Flickr API in Action
january 2009 by fjordaan
Two great new image related sites I’m enjoying that play with the Flickr API. First up is Multicolr Search Lab by Idée Inc who build an image montage from a colour palette you select from. Next up is Compfight who do something similar to Flickrleech though not as well in my opinion.
