It points to a need for Google to think of different ways of serving up relevant results. Presumably Google thinks those results are relevant for some slice of the audience. They must add some other way for you to get rapidly to what you think is relevant for you. That’s an excellent point, Google Success, but it’s a reality.

But when the internet marketers invade the blogs for exploiting profits, the very meaning of blogs - sharing something with passion to interested people - will be lost. The same is happening to online videos and other social networks. Other day I wanted to search for a hotel in a particular city. I did a google search and all the top results were google videos. Google videos show at the top because it has high PR and the main hotel sites are pushed down so that they are not found. Such experiences by users will ultimately backfire on the methods employed by the internet marketers. Yes, it is a good idea to use blogs for marketing.

We're all connected together, if we wish to be. Of course as in life, you need to have something interesting to say to gain the other's attention. If you do, then the connection is made. .. and of course it's visible to others who may wish to join the conversation. :) To me, Tony, that’s the biggest feature of the Internet.

A very savvy friend of mine, who I finally hired to start producing my own podcast, made great strides in building up his own listenership by calling in to other very popular podcasts and participating. He would always start by saying "Hi, this is Alan from the [xyz] podcast and I was wondering..." In this new paradigm where anyone can "publish," any sort of listener participation is usually greatly appreciated and rewarded. Tony Barry,
