Personal "business" cards are for everybody

Cards for personal use, for students, moms with kids, for travelers etc. Technically, they shouldn't be called Business Card but rather personal cards. In Czech, we call them "osobní vizitky", but in English, the name varies.
I Czech, vizitka means "business card", but is derived from "visiting card", so it actually has personal meaning embedded in it. Visiting card has actually quite an interesting history, I will get to that some other time.

Search for reviews on Google - QRS

How to find reviews using Google? Quick Review Search might be the answer. It is basically a Customized Google Search, specialized on searching reviews on trusted domains. Trusted reviews can by found on sites like gizmondo.com or dpreview.com, and these are the domains this new customized search looks in. QRS might prove useful, since otherwise the search results on product reviews are full of ads and e-shops.
Using Google for review searching is sometimes very tedious work - there is just too many e-shops. This Custom Search uses Google to search only trusted review webservers. Please give it a try and let us know how it goes.

FOX News biased against Barack Obama



This is crazy. FOX News start blaming president Obama only 24 hours after he's sworn in. Wow. Some of those are really childish claims, too.

I just love their parodies. Their overexaggerated clips show us how other media "only" exaggerate.

US Military biasing news media

I guess it shouldn't have surprised me, but somehow I thought they wouldn't go for it so blatantly. Of course military wants to have some influence on what is reported, but the Iraq war shows us the extremes. Message Force Multipliers, that is rich.
