[Evolvingtrends.wordpress.com] Evolving Trends: In fact, since it makes so much economic sense to the AdSense user you may find spammers (those who setup massively interlinked farms of pages and plaster Google AdSense ads all over them) opting to allow the 10% deduction, thus effectively doing good for a change instead of just evil. Advertisers who participate in such a program do so with the understanding that people clicking on their ads simply to help the advertiser's chosen charity are potential consumers who may be interested in the advertiser's products or services.

[Atypicaljoe.com] aTypical Joe: A gay New Yorker living in the rural south ...: Jeff Bates, a vice president of the Open Source Technology Group who oversees SourceForge.net, the host of more than 80,000 active open-source projects, said, "It makes me grind my teeth to hear Wikipedia compared to open source." In every open-source project, he said, there is "a benevolent dictator" who ultimately takes responsibility, even though the code is contributed by many. Good stuff results only if "someone puts their name on it."
[PSFK : Global Trends Collaborative] Can Google 1.0 Compete With 2.0, Or Even 3.0?: The emergence of a Wikipedia 3.0 that is built on the Semantic Web model will herald the end of Google as the Ultimate Answer Machine. It will be replaced with “WikiMind” which will not be a mere search engine like Google is but a true Global Brain: a powerful pan-domain inference engine, with a vast set of ontologies (a la Wikipedia 3.0) covering all domains of human knowledge, that can reason and deduce answers and not just throw some information at you using the rudimentary concept of the ’search engine.’

[Peter Corless] Jesus Loves Darwin I have been giving a great... : Sam Harris is only half-right in his assertion for the "End of Faith." While there has been an ongoing and now modern clash between atheists and Bible literalists and Islamic fundamentalists ”” zealotous anti-rationalist, anti-secularists ”” what he fails to give credence to is the prevalent number of rational spiritualists for whom fighting over religious differences are not as compelling as the universal lessons and goals of brotherly love, cooperation, peace, concord, fidelity, and commonweal.
[Raw] Search Personalization and Attention: As you can probably tell from the style (and lack of animal references) this is intended to go somewhere other than this blog. But I thought I might as well throw this first draft out here anyhow. One of the biggest problems with current search technologies is that simple keyword-based queries often return vast amount of irrelevant information.
[Phatic Communion] Unrolling the Future: Evolutionists see the fossil data and believe in a progression, see DNA sequences that are shared by non-human animals and humans alike, and they believe that these things, in combination with records of geologic change, can or will ultimately account for every facet of humanity we now witness — without yet being able to define or explain what is memory, human intelligence, emotion, or a sonnet.
