I didn’t know about Yahoo! Buzz

I feel shameful to say that I didn’t know about Yahoo! Buzz. Nowadays I am really busy in my work and I hardly come online these days. But Yahoo!, Google, Microsoft and AOL are some of the web competitors that I always keep on eye as some day I may become their competitor. But if there is any people who, unfortunately due to busy schedule, do not know about Yahoo! Buzz, then I just like to share a brief introduction on what Yahoo! Buzz is.

Well, I guess most of the people know about Digg.com which is the largest social news sharing website. Yahoo! Buzz is same as the Digg but Yahoo! Buzz as the name signifies is undertaken by Yahoo! and also it is a joint venture with Microsoft. Now you will find the voting button of Yahoo! Buzz in Microsoft web browser and IE. This makes the increase of users of Yahoo! in the last month i.e., June and it is just like a threat to other competitors like Google Search Engine and AOL. So, Yahoo! Buzz is the social news sharing project of Yahoo! and has already gained success in generating more than 9.2 Million users in June.

Reconsideration Request to Google

The main objective of webmastering is to index their websites in the Google Search Engine. If your website has not been indexed by Google for a quite long time, then there must be some problem with your website and you can fix it using the Google reconsideration. Now you can use the Google Webmaster Tool to submit the request of reconsideration to the Google.

But you must follow the steps before you submit the request of reconsideration. You must check the timing of the last time when Googlebot visited your website. You must check whether there is any problem in accessing the website by Googlebot. This can be checked in the Webmaster Tools using the crawl rate graphs. And if there is any problem in accessing your website, then there may be some message from Google and you can check the inbox of message in Webmaster Tools.

And if there is no message in the Webmaster Tools Center, then it means that still there is a big problem and you have to find by yourself. Now you can re-check the guidelines of the webmasters which are given in the Webmaster Tools Center. If there is any violation in the rules and regulation in the Google Webmaster Guidelines, then you can submit the reconsideration request to the Google through the webmaster Tools Center.

Now Googlebot can crawl through HTML forms

Now Google is trying to increase their search volume by indexing HTML forms also. It is just like Google is trying to provide more useful and relevant information to their users by increasing the search volume of the search engine. Recently, Google has de-indexed many pages of most of the blogs in the struggling of controlling advertisement in the blog.

Now Google is trying to increase the search volume in another form and they are searching for some other means to provide relevant results to the Googlers. They are thinking that this new feature of Google can provide more useful resources to the Googlers.

But in my opinion, this feature will not create much difference in the search result. Now it is in the initial stage and need more refined feature. But Google will continue this feature only when this works good in its initial stage. This new feature of Google search will help to index the HTML

of the high quality website. And if the is indexed, then the users need to do only small queries using the form.

Will Microsoft raise the bid again?

Microsoft bids for the Yahoo! is one of the hottest news around the internet for internet based companies. Yahoo! holds its position and the company has been facing a bad time with the plan of selling the company off to solve all the financial problems in the company. Microsoft is the only company which has been bidding to acquire Yahoo! Microsoft’s last offer of $44.6 billion bid was incredible and there is no reason to increase the bid of Microsoft anymore.

Yahoo! rejected the last bid of Microsoft and they are planning to merger with other companies like AOL. This will be the alternate solution than the selling of the company. If Yahoo! thinks that it is the better solution, then they will not sell the company at any cost and therefore, there is no reason to increase the bid anymore. But if Microsoft wants to make the path clear out of their internet business and wants to remove one of their competitors, then they can buy Yahoo! and bid for higher prices.

There are discussions in some of the technology blogs that Microsoft will raise its bid to acquire Yahoo! but still in the famous news channel like Reuters it was disclosed that there are very low chances that Microsoft will raise its bid anymore. If Yahoo! wants to merge the company with other internet based companies or wants the help of investors, then they will not sell the company at any cost.

Did you notice the Google Black homepage?

Yesterday, when I opened my Google Homepage, I was really surprised to see the new look of the Google homepage. It was completely black in color with only color Google logo. But in the next day I realized the meaning of the Google black in many of the discussion forum and blogs about the Google black. If you have missed the Google black homepage, then I just upload an image for Google black homepage.

The message of the Google black was to save the energy by turning off your computer for few minutes. It is just like Google’s first move towards social activity of saving energy by going black for few minutes. If all the owners of the computers can turn off their computers for few hours in a day, then this will save a lot of energy. Because most of the webmasters and bloggers hardly turn off their computers and Google is targeting those webmasters and bloggers who do not turn off their computers for 2-3 days to save the energy.
