The Vulgar Tongue (Grose et al. 1811) / · Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue A dictionary of the slang of the British underworld produced in 1811. This was based on an earlier book by Francis Grose, which I have not found on-line. Francis Grose in turn may have used the 1736 dictionary of Theiving Slang which I have transcribed myself. Entries in the online edition of the 1811 dictionary have links back to the earlier work by Nathan Bailey in many cases.
How publishers curate the world of content Advertisement It's nothing new that many news websites augment their own content with repackaged content from around the Web, but the applications have evolved along with the technology.

This list focuses on some of the best-loved scenes in musical theater history, and covers roughly sixty-six years.
Loud3r Launches popURLs Competitor At a glance, Loud3r appears to be yet another version of popURLs or Alltop, just with a lot more verticals right off the bat. Dig a little deeper (you don't have to dig very far) and you'll see that one major differentiating factor for loud3r is that it's also a social network. You can create a user profile, and it will universally give you access to your profiles on lound3r's family of sites. However, this isn't the only thing that makes loud3r different from the rest. Lowell Goss, loud3r's founder and CEO of loud3r, was also quick to point out that loud3r does not have the exact same target demographic as popURLs and Alltop.

Over the past few years, I’ve gotten a bit better in striking up conversations with random people (basically ask a question, be interested, go from there… you just need to assume they want to talk to you – they’ll let you know if they don’t).
Special Kelsey Group Presentation: Local 2.0: The Evolution of Local Search What percentage of online searches are local? If you consider searches that end up having some influence on local buying activity, the opportunity is put into perspective.
