Here’s a way to commemorate Memorial Day with the technology you’re using right now — your computer. Google engineer Sean Askay has created a “layer” for Google Earth with detailed information about the service members who gave their lives in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars: Map the Fallen. With ...
Thank you, Google, for finally stepping up and commemorating Memorial Day.
Google is starting to roll out a new service based on “Grand Central,” a multi-phone/voicemail management business they recently acquired, with some very interesting features: Here comes Google Voice. As you may know, GrandCentral offers many great features, including a single number to ring your home, work, and mobile ...
Early this morning, for about a half hour, Google’s search engine was issuing the warning, “This Site May Harm Your Computer”—for every site on the web. It’s fixed now, and here’s the explanation from the official Google blog: ‘This site may harm your computer’ on every search result?!?! What ...
Recently, Google bought Feedburner, the popular RSS hosting service, and it must be said: so far, they are doing an absolutely rotten job of managing it. I’ve had nothing but trouble since the changeover, with feeds that won’t update, feeds with changed URLs but no notice, and worst of all, ...
The power of Obama has reached out and healed Google.
Reacting to criticism, Google is going to change the EULA for their new browser, Chrome. Google’s new web browser Chrome is fast, shiny, and requires users to sign their very lives over to Google before they can use it. Today’s Internet outrage du jour has been Chrome’s EULA, which ...

Google is working on a web browser with a “virtualized” Javascript engine and other cutting edge features, and they’ve posted a comic book to extol its coolness to the masses: Google on Google Chrome.

Does Google hate America? No. “Hate” is such a negative word. They just don’t care.
It’s the anniversary of D-Day, the invasion of Normandy that began the liberation of Europe from the Nazi nightmare. So what does Google celebrate today? The birthday of Spanish painter Diego Velasquez, which as we all know is much more important than some silly war to save civilization: Google. ...
Google couldn’t be bothered to recognize Memorial Day (even though they’ve been confronted about it every year for at least 3 years), but today they have a nice little logo commemorating the climbing of Mount Everest.
In 2005, Google issued the following explanation for their failure to create a customized logo for Memorial Day: We have to balance this rotating calendar with the need to maintain the consistency of the Google homepage. Furthermore, Google’s special logos tend to be lighthearted in nature. If we were ...
Senator Joe Lieberman sent a letter to Google/YouTube asking them to remove the video content that’s been posted at YouTube by terrorist groups and their supporters, and Google told Lieberman to take a hike. It’s no joke; this kind of highly disturbing radical Islamic content is easy to find all ...
The European Union is putting up $152 million to fund a search engine that will compete with Google. Who was that snickering in the back of the room? OK, maybe it was me. I can’t help it. I’m picturing an EU-approved search engine, and I can’t stop giggling. EUgle! Bwa ...
An Israeli town has filed suit against Google for allowing its Google Earth system to be used by anti-Israel Palestinian propaganda groups to spread misleading claims: Israeli town sues Google over claim it was built on Arab village. The northern town of Kiryat Yam is suing Internet giant Google ...

I wonder how our friends the Saudis feel about Google’s logo today, posted at the Saudi Arabian branch? Sure, there are no obvious Christian symbols (unless you count the Holy Candy Canes of Antioch), but still...
Our pagerank is rockin’. Little Green Footballs has now knocked Lionsgate Films out of the top spot in a Google search for LGF.
The left-wing, jihad-friendly bias of Google becomes more clear nearly every day; they have now removed the video of Robert Spencer’s talk at Dartmouth, with the following excuse: As set forth in the Terms & Conditions, Google Video is not required to host or display uploaded content. Google Video ...

Just one more example of the leftist bias of Google: Google bans anti-MoveOn.org ads. WASHINGTON (Map, News) - Internet giant Google has banned advertisements critical of MoveOn.org, the far-left advocacy group that caused a national uproar last month when it received preferential treatment from The New York Times for ...
LGF operative zombie is quoted in this LA Times article, and with that patented, many-layered system of fact-checking for which the mainstream media is famous, writer Jim Puzzanghera blindly assumes that zombie is a “he:” Google logo tweak sends critics into orbit. In May, the website www.zombietime.com started a ...
