I finally had a time to create a custom search engine on Google Coop called Philippine Travels & Living. It’s fairly complete right now but I’m very much willing to accept contributors in order to deliver a more precise and relevant result. Let me know by posting a comment.
The search engine is perfect for foreign and local tourists who are trying to plan the next great escapade on Philippine Islands. Enjoy the service!
Google.com agrees to buy DoubleClick, the grand daddy of online advertising, for a whopping amount of $3.1 Billion in cash.
With this recent acquisition, Google is positioning itself ahead of its competitor namely Yahoo, Microsoft and Time Warner. DoubleClick is the the grand daddy of online advertising dating back when Google wasn’t yet a household name. This is a timely move by Google after it begun the Pay-Per-Action program, to have a bigger and wider advertising coverage.
I wonder what would be the next move for Yahoo and Microsoft? An exciting times indeed!
