By Doug Caverly - Fri, 09/28/2007 - 3:59pm.

By Doug Caverly - Wed, 09/19/2007 - 10:37am.
For a while, it seemed like Google China was doing better - the company had partnered with Sina, bought a stake in Tianya, and received the Chinese government’s permission to provide content. Now things don’t look so great - Baidu’s market share is up, and Google’s has gone down.

Yahoo has released the prototype of new service called Zurfer, and the oddly named creation is being touted as a location-based photo browser that works with Flickr. But beware: “Yahoo! has warned users to beware of roaming coats, as Zurfer sends many of the photos over a phone’s internet connection.”

By Doug Caverly - Thu, 06/07/2007 - 5:17pm.
As Google UK moves to extend a preexisting ban, it would seem that the company’s not much for middle ground these days. The ban will now involve advertising for all gambling-related sites, including those that don’t involve any real money.
