Google 谷歌 Puzzle
It seems Blogospheres are not satisfactory's Google's recent official Chinese name 谷歌 (annoucement, flash promo), below are some selected comments (if you are not chinese-savvy, just use the Google translater). They are so so so negative, so sarcarstic! Some words are even very dirty.
google的中文名,用普通话读没有问题,用粤语读,非常拗口难听。 N年前一家公司,同事为一个牌子起名字的时候,想了一个方案出来,意思、国语、粤语都没问题,后来有上海同... 两年后在上海街头见到一个饮料牌子的车身广告--“维体”,粤语发音=“遗体” 佳美,车是好车,突然改叫“凯美瑞”,粤语发音也是很一般 现在是谷歌 这些名字肯定不是讲粤语的人想出来的。虽然粤语不见得特别重要,但名字那么重要,真的不需要各个主要方言的... 反正饮品要是叫“遗体”,我是不买的. ---Raymond
搞笑,好好地google不做,非要弄个中文名叫谷歌,这音译的也太滥了吧? 百度要笑死了,狗狗这个名字说不定中国人都知道,换成谷歌的话,李开复又要花大力气去宣传去了。 图像“http://www.google.com/intl/zh-CN_ALL/images/logo ... .gif” 因其本身有错无法显示。 ---------------谷歌 大家想吐就去吐吧,吐阿吐阿就习惯了~~---Zhou Jian

貌似Google然而其实不同的Baidu “谷歌”写给中国政府的保证书邹磊: 国内校园SNS又有两家加入竞争,硝烟弥漫 blog中文翻译 : 当仅仅‘delete’已经变得不够了 不如重新启用科举好了人民不是个东西,“民意”也不是个东西-赵牧博客 沃尔玛进军银行业申请面临强大反对浪潮 麦当劳快速应对批评书籍和电影 中美是否会为石油开战?---Trace Of Pullulation
得知google的官方中文名终于公布了,叫做 谷歌,请大家默哀三分钟... 当下的第一反应是 古狗 被人抢注了,所以沦落到用这个名字.然而我觉得即使用股沟也好过谷歌吧.起码以后听到有人问不肖回答到问题,可以说:这个用屁股沟想也知道吧...意即叫他或她去查google... 其实一直也没觉得google需要一个中文到名称.同样的情况还有crossover,今天不断有人问我c...低調地浮誇
对此我只有三个字:不好听。不过即使这样,以后我也还得高唱“谷歌”。唱着唱着就习惯了。Eric完全赞同Google起一个中文名,并希望以后全世界都流行起中文名,就像... 为什么现在很多人喜欢用英文名或英文ID,难道是因为它文化的强势?或许因为它的简单吧。“谷歌”没什么好说的,人家来中国就要有中文名嘛,就是觉得“歌”字稍稍有点复杂了。 顺便说一下,这次对keso比较失望。 两天前他的《名正言顺》似乎还不失评论家的风范,然而这篇《百度同学》,却有点儿“以子之矛,攻子之盾”的... 前一段日子Eric常去关注韩少侠英勇的“以一敌十”,现在,百度与谷歌的口水大战又可以给大家带去消遣啦.-- New Start
著名搜索引擎GOOGLE最近发布了它的官方中文名——谷歌,实在让人不得要领,简直是匪夷所思。 有人说,这名字乍一听还以为是“李谷一在唱歌”,而在boingboing今天的扉页上被译为“song of the grain”——与搜索引擎的意思、作用都差太远了,要想联系到一起,恐怕要拐很多弯。 记得曾经有人提过,google在国外读作“勾勾”,而从这个中文名来看,“oo”恐怕还是应该读成长音.---来时陌上初熏

Tom Cruise, Scientology
Scientology is a new religious movement based on a system of beliefs, teachings, practices, and rituals that was originated as a philosophy in 1952 by science fiction author L. Ron Hubbard. It is characterized by the Church of Scientology in 1953 as an "applied religious philosophy". Hubbard defined Scientology as "knowing how to know" , although he first introduced it with the words, "Scientology would be a study of knowledge."
The Church of Scientology has attracted much controversy, criticism, and distrust. Scientology's principles have been characterized as pseudoscientific by scientists and by medical and psychotherapeutic practitioners. Critics — including government bodies of several countries — have characterized the Church as an unscrupulous commercial organization, citing harassment of critics and exploitation of its members. Because of these factors, the Church has frequently been called a cult.
The term Scientology is a trademark of the Religious Technology Center, which licenses its use and use of the copyrighted works of Hubbard to the Church of Scientology. The Church presents itself as a religious non-profit organization dedicated to the rehabilitation of the human spirit and providing counseling and rehabilitation programs. Church spokespeople claim that Hubbard's teachings (called "technology" or "tech" in Scientology terminology) have saved them from addictions, arthritis, depression, learning disabilities, mental illness, cancer and other problems.
Most modern management--employees first, customer second
Every employee rates their boss, their boss' boss, and any three other company managers they choose, on 18 questions using a 1-5 scale. Such 360-degree evaluations are not uncommon, but at HCL all results are posted online for every employee to see.
Every HCL employee can at any time create an electronic "ticket" to flag anything they think requires action in the company. Such tickets can only be "closed" by the employees themselves. And managers should not intimidate employees about creating or closing tickets, but are evaluated partly based on how many tickets their departments are creating - the more the better.
Eevery employee can post a question or comment on any subject in a public process called "U and I."About 400 come in each month, and questions and answers are all posted on the intranet.

Adsenser's Daily-$1700-owning tips
1. Use wide ad formats . Many publishers find the 728x90 Leaderboard outperforms the 468x60 banner by about 70%. I particularly recommend using the 728x90 Leaderboard, 160x600 Wide Skyscraper, and 300x250 Medium Rectangle.
2. Embed Google ads in your content, and place Google ads at the end of your articles, news stories and reviews. Placing a 468x60 Banner in the typical slot at the top of page, or a 120x600 Skyscraper along the right-hand side of page, work well for cost-per-thousand impressions (CPM) ads. However, for cost-per-click (CPC) contextual advertising , AdSense tends to work best when integrated with your content.
3. Blend your ad colours into your website. After running a test with a bright pink 728x90 Leaderboard on a black background, I learned that complementary colours often work better. Try blending the background and borders of your ads into your site, and use a text colour that stands out but already exists on your site. Blending decreases ad blindness and users are more likely to notice ads that interest them.
I wanna to see his website, but seems nowhere to find. If anyone knows, don't hesitate to throw an email to me, thanks!

'Da Vinci Code' Judged No Copyright Infringement
It would be quite wrong if fictional writers were to have their writings pored over in the way DVC (`Da Vinci Code') has been pored over in this case by authors of pretend historical books to make an allegation of infringement of copyright," Judge Peter Smith said in his 71-page ruling.Link
Copyright doesn't protect ideas and copyright doesn't protect facts. That's why we have genres, fiction and nonfiction, and a number of people can write novels based on the same idea and still have freedom of expression."

Use Google Earth to Spot Eva Longoria
So creative work, but is it necessary to do such huge replica? It's nothing but advertisments for both of Maxim and Eva Longoria. You see, now I finally got to know who is Eva Longoria.
In honor of Maxim's 100th issue, which is on newsstands this week, the men's magazine has created a 75-by-110-foot vinyl mesh replica of its January 2005 cover image of Eva Longoria in the desert outside Las Vegas. Nine workers took more than 15 hours to build the cover, which is so big that satellites are able to photograph the image from space.The stunt was made possible by the city of Las Vegas and Google Earth, which will display the image today on www.maximonline.com/maximusa.

$8.50 DN-2000 MP3 player
Japanese Co. Evergreen is no stranger to the cheap and crap-plasticy product. Now they combine their love of the two and apparent hatred for human-kind in this $8.50 DN-2000 MP3 player targeting the ill-fated shores of Japan, and perhaps, beyond. It runs for 5-hours on a single AAA battery and supports 1GB SD cards. You realize of course, that we are now at the dawn of disposable MP3 players don't you? Gawd save our souls.It is the cheapest MP3 player I ever know. To get one will not do wrong for me!

Vulgar Italia, Silvio Berlusconi
Just for pleasure, here some more counts in the report entitled Pig Latin: Berlusconi vents the vernacular on opponents of Sydney Morning Herald:
He refers to the pro-business British magazine The Economist as The Ecommunist, suggests the Milanese investigating magistrates who are on his trail are sexual perverts and, although he deplores communists, he bends over backwards for the Russian President, Vladimir Putin, a former KGB chief. He even coached a cheer squad to chant VLA- DI-MIR; VLA-DI-MIR, outside one of his Sardinian villas, where he hosted Mr Putin.
He has compared himself to Napoleon and Christ, saying no other politician has achieved as much and been so persecuted.
Update: Berlusconi stepped down as Italian Prime Minister

An Aheist's Thought
The world is heading in a dangerous direction and it's because of this pernicious belief in god.
A belief in god shows a dramatic lack of understanding of the real world.
We have created god for two reasons.
1. It is a way of explaining things we don't understand. Death, the weather etc.
2. It is a fantastic way for a lot of people to make a living.
God and the devil is a "carrot and stick" designed to make us do what someone else wants us to do and there a lot of people in the world telling us we need to contribute to their church to please god. It is the biggest confidence trick ever.

Bigger just is better - that seems to be the mantra over at Nokia. After the hugely successful and also successfully huge Nokia N90, the designers figured they could go the extra mile. If the phone is already as big as a baton and people are lovin' it, why not just make it a wee bit bigger and some more features to appease the gadget hungry? Enter the Nokia N999, featuring a best-in-class 22 megapixel digital camera, 8-channel surround audio coming out from each twistable side of the phone, a full-size 16X dual-layer DVD burner instead of the prick-sized memory cards in use today, a 9-inch (diagonal) plasma (not LCD!) display capable of 1024×768!.....
