Google readying Web-only video search
Google is expected to unveil a search engine for Web-only video this summer that will let people preview media clips from its Web site, CNET News.com has learned. Google's planned service will let visitors find free short-form videos such as the popular "Star Wars" video spoofs, according to sources who asked to remain anonymous. The engine will complement the search giant's existing experimental site that lets people search the closed-caption text of television shows from PBS and CNN, among others, and preview accompanying still images. The new capabilities will let people watch roughly 10 seconds of Web video clips for free before shuttling visitors to the video's host site, sources say. Sources said the new video search engine will be unveiled within the next two months. Read full article: CNET News.com |

Wall Street still loves its rebel Google
To skeptics, it's as though search giant Google's investors are living in an alternative reality where the tech boom never ended. With a $77.7 billion market capitalization, Google's worth on Wall Street is just about equal with media giant Time Warner; it dwarfs Viacom's $54.6 billion market cap and tops Disney's by nearly 45 percent. Google's share price closed down 4.6 percentage points to $279.56 on Wednesday, just a day after it flirted with the $300 barrier. All this for a company that didn't even exist seven years ago, routinely avoids providing earnings forecasts, won't conduct a stock split to make its share price more palatable and has a price-to-earnings ratio of 112.27, about twice that of its closest competitor, Yahoo.

Frank Lloyd Wright was born in Richland Center, Wisconsin on June 8, 1867, to William Cary Wright and Anna Lloyd Jones Wright. Even before he was born, his mother was determined to make him into an architect.

In 1877 the family returned to Madison, Wisconsin where Wright spent the school year and summers on his mother's family farm just outside of Madison. By 1885 Wright's father had left the family, never to be seen or heard from again. Wright then got a job working for Allen D. Conover, a local builder, and began taking drafting classes at the University of Wisconsin. Search Birthdate for Frank LLoyd Wright |

Google Sitemaps offer fast track to indexing
Google Sitemaps lets Webmasters tell Google about all the pages on their Web site, rather than leaving it to Web crawlers to find them Google launched a free service on Friday that gives Webmasters more control over what Web pages are crawled by the search engine. Until now, the most that Webmasters could do to encourage Google to index their site was to submit their home page to Google and hope the search engine found all pages linked from it. The new service, known as Google Sitemaps, lets Webmasters tell Google about all of their Web pages, how frequently they are likely to change and which ones they want crawled first.
