THE "EDITOR'S CHOICE"
___________________
Hello valued subscribers,
Something a little different this week
here. I am standing in as editor today due to Hurricane Wilma. You
see, Debbie just lived the nightmare that we all have been seeing
repeated over and over AND over on the television. I thought that
you should know that Debbie and her two young children made it
through safe in sound, despite the fact that they got to see the
hurricane's eye wall up close and personal Monday. They now, as of
Wednesday night, just got electric back and are hoping that it stays
on. She is still unable to get online though, and asked me to get
this ezine out to you as if it were business at usual.
I know that so many have been
affected by these monster storms, but why not drop Debbie a quick
email to tell her that you care. I know that she would love to see
that, and maybe even some extra sales to make getting back on her
feet more bearable. I know she had put together some great
advertising packages for you before all of this happened. Here is
the link if you are interest:

Have a safe weekend!

Earth to Google -- Get Your Head
Out of the Stratosphere
By Kamau Austin
Google, in route to becoming both the librarian and card catalog of
all human knowledge is quickly expanding its reach beyond the
information found on the Internet and World Wide Web. Google is also
becoming more accessible on wireless devices like cell phones and PDAs
(or what I call the cyber or digital ether).
Not long ago Google purchased a company called Keyhole, which gave
them access to aerial maps of the world shot by satellites circling
the Earth. The purpose of this service seemed to be similar to the
wildly successful Yahoo! Map service.
However Google Earth, the outgrowth of buying Keyhole, is truly more
like a map service on steroids.
With Google Earth, a service like Yahoo! Maps is truly elevated to the
next level. Google Earth's tagline is -- a 3D interface to the
planet.
In theory not only can you get a map and directions to drive to a
location, you can even now see high resolution pictures of the streets
and neighborhood of your destination.
You can even see areas around the world without getting on a plane.
Not a bad technology right? But let’s take a closer look at this
development.
Let me digress slightly and state some people who read my blogs and
articles on a regular basis may think Google is the company I love to
hate. Not really, I just want them to step off their high holy horse
of Internet Iconomy.
I know Iconomy is not a word, but what better term to describe a major
established Internet brand shot full of hubris. Google has many times
been found to be one of the world’s strongest corporate brands by
marketers who do this type of research.
But Google is a lot more than a major corporate brand. It has become
an Internet Icon synonymous with search. The term googling is
becoming a phrase used for searching the web on the search engines.
Moreover, just criticize Google, as I have been known to do on
occasion, and see how much email you get from people who seem to take
on the role of Google apologists.
Google has become a major Internet Iconic brand without major media
advertising. In short, the major Internet surfing community at-large
has elevated Google literally into the stratosphere on top of online
search.
Since the Internet community, purported to be 1/4th of the world’s
population, has built Google into an Iconic brand it has a vested
interest in protecting the brand. Although we all either love or
revere Google, can we afford to let it do whatever it wants?
Of course Google is a company with a bounty of capital. More
impressive however is Google has even more intellectual capital. I
guess for such a company a little hubris is to be expected.
However, at some point they have to come back to earth with their
product Google Earth. Recently in India and also other so called third
world countries they are asking that Google Earth not show high
resolution satellite photographed images of their capitals.
Governments abroad are asking for privacy because they are afraid
terrorists will get their hands on these aerial photos and plan
attacks. I think this is a reasonable fear these foreign governments
face. It is also reported that Google has backed away from providing
photos of the US capital and government buildings.
The big companies and governments may be able to negotiate privacy
from Google's peering eyes, but the rest of us seem like an after
thought to Google's grand scheme of domination of the digital ether.
Earth to Google -- not just governments, but we regular people need
some privacy protection too!
Can you imagine a stalker or criminal watching your house and
observing your movements from a remote location for days in order to
attack or rob you?
This is on the heals of Google providing autolink features to add
links to webmasters pages, and image search which enables web
searchers to rip-off webmasters copyrighted art files. Is it just me
-- or is Google totally out of control?
Earth to Google -- get your head out of the stratosphere, and give us
mere mortals down here on earth -- a hearing and a chance!
Privacy protection should not die on the altar of your lofty and
ethereal goals for omni-info domination.
Google's plan seems to become the search engine of all human knowledge
and information. It isn't their plan or end goal that is so
questionable, but their means to achieve this goal is what is so
threatening at times.
A prominent technologist once said "privacy is dead... get over it."
But Earth to Google -- even a regular guy like me knows if you erode
privacy isn't freedom ultimately also the next causality?

HOT BIZ*TIP
_____________________
Zip Files
A zip file is basically a "package" of one or more compressed
files. If you download software, you'll may run across these.
You'll need an "unzipping" program in order to access them,
something like Winzip is a good choice.
Once unzipped, you simply run the install program (if there is
one) and you're all set. Winzip will automatically run the
installation program for you if it finds one!
You can download Winzip from:
http://www.winzip.com
If you have Windows XP, you don't need a program-just double
click a zipped file to open it. A menu will appear from which you
can save individual files to your computer. Just click & drag or
copy the file you want and drop it in the desired location . It's
that easy!
Also, in the left-hand column there is a link to "Extract all
files". This will open a wizard to guide you through the
extraction process. You can choose where you want the files to
go.
And you thought unzipping was difficult. <Grin>.
