Google Is Failing More

Paul points it out as a failed dishwasher search. http://battellemedia.com/archives/2009/12/google_is_failing_more.php
I've been writing a lot about so-called 'content farms' in recent months - companies like Demand Media and Answers.com which create thousands of pieces of content per day and are making a big impact on the Web. Both of those two companies are now firmly inside the top 20 Web properties in the U.S. , on a par with the likes of Apple and AOL.

The tale of 20 likes

I care about news. It’s why I love talking with Gabe Rivera, the guy who makes TechMeme and a bunch of similar sites, like I did in Paris France at the recent LeWeb Conference.
The internet is vast. Bigger than a city, bigger than a country, maybe as big as the universe. It's expanding by the second. http://kk.org/ct2/2009/06/the-internet-mapping-project.php

Where is the interest graph?

Media Curation Is Now Consumer-Generated

Paul:
I have three words for this pearl: Learn, Like and Share.
Later I will had more details. Thanks.. by multicoaching Mar 4

Thanks for this site. As an educator, content creation is prohibitively expensive and starts to become obsolete as soon as it's published. The curation process is a definite solution (and resources are so easy to find). Learning takes on a research pattern that may be daunting to students who expect rote learning; but is now necessary in a world of emergent complexity. by pauljacobson Mar 3

Curation, whether accidental or intentional, is rapidly becoming the future of media and publishing. by nicolas Mar 6

Right on, Patrice! You are a champion. I love what you are doing and the velocity of this trajectory. Let's reform education NOW. by pauljacobson Mar 3
