Friday Recap - Thursday Edition

Posted by Virginia Nussey

I know you're used to getting your summation upon Fridays, though tomorrow's our Halloween party! That translates to a entire BCI crew in spirited costumes carrying disagreeable great fun. What can we say? We love to dress up!

So there's a great chance tomorrow will be a flattering chaotic day, as good as since we plan to be among a undead, we can't unequivocally equate upon many brain capacity. we figured why not offer up a small summation while I've got a required participation of mind?

The Internet commemorates its 40th birthday today. Kind of. There have been lots of milestones which could be counted as a "birth" of a Internet though a one which happened forty years ago today is a connection of to nodes of ARPANET. It's similar to a big understanding or something. Yay, Internet! [Officially Over a Hill. --Susan]

Turns out spending a integrate hours a day online might essentially be great for your mental health. A investigate suggests which a conflict of insanity might be prevented or slowed by a brain stimulation caused by surfing a Web. If that's a case, in sixty years there will be a whole garland of sharp, old SEOs out there still doing their thing!

Or course, every apparatus which can be used for great can be only as easily used for trickery. This week a slew of celebrity robberies were blamed in partial upon a Internet.

A group of teens (who went to propagandize in my home town, essentially -- go Chargers!) have been suspected of burglarizing a slew of homes belonging to immature Hollywood stars. Police contend a thieves used celebrity Web sites to track a celebrities' whereabouts, providing a burglars easy access to dull homes as good as all a cool stuff therein. Spooooky! [Dear horrible people upon a Internet. we never leave home as good as we have a shotgun. Love as good as kisses, Susan]

One of a suspects blamed her criminal wake up upon bad friends. Now which Google's testing out a amicable space, it might be a small easier to stay connected with friends -- hopefully only a great ones. Social Search launched in Google Labs this week as good as a bald-headed Matt Cutts has a honor of a intros.

News around Yahoo! was somewhat reduction celebratory as Geocities pronounced its goodbyes, receiving a slew of personal, giveaway Web sites with it. Bing, meanwhile, got into a holiday suggestion with Halloween-themed ads. Together, a span deferred their self-imposed poke understanding deadline citing a "complex nature of a transaction".

Members of a poke attention patently keep up with a big 3 engines, though have we ever considered your alternatives? Over during Search Engine Watch Carrie Hill rounds up as good as categorizes AdWords alternatives, together with PPC, cost-per-impression as good as cost-per-lead ad programs.

Directories have been touted as a potential source for inbound links. But one of a oldest as good as many authoritative directories, DMOZ, is notoriously difficult to get into. Seeking to uncover this thorn in a SEO industry's side, Debra Mastaler talked to a Open Directory Project's editor in arch in a revealing interview posted upon Search Engine Land.

Finally, as Oct rolls to a close, so does National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. But a need for caring as good as giving carries on. The poke as good as amicable media marketers have been ancillary a cause by TwakeUp, a amicable media debate in which all income raised will be since to a National Breast Cancer Foundation. You can make donations to this debate by November.

Things we schooled from Boing Boing this week:

• One pro photographer has common his tips for receiving incredible pics with nothing some-more than a li'l ol' iPhone 3GS.
• The White House went open source this week.
• Bees might have grown a ambience for human tears. [AUGH! --Susan]
• Disney's Haunted Mansion has real-world roots!
