During the Black Friday madness and the increased traffic to this blog because of posts listing specific consumer product model information, I noticed a dramatic increase in earnings from Kontera.

Dell I1501P-H003W
LEXMARK X3430
hp deskjet f2110
The Lexmark term is really doing well for traffic as I am number one for many variations of that term as well. I [...]

The more information the government has, the less privacy we enjoy as a nation. There is a valid argument for limited privacy in certain situations to ensure national security, but one has to wonder what would happen if the government were to begin agreements with tech outfits like Google and Microsoft who have an enormous [...]

There has been a significant amount of chatter on the Internet about the recent Google PageRank update and I have been voraciously reading as many posts and theories about it as possible.
