SO the pressure has been on me to get writing in my blog. Some BRILLIANT ideas have popped into my head while driving home, while in the shower, just before falling asleep and at some other very inconvenient times that will remain private. But by the time I get into the office and begin the tempest that is my work day, these ideas have taken their place in the ether and are miles away from being typed into the digital realm.

From the user’s perspective, finding something from a search engine is easy. All the user really need to do is search for something and filter the results according to your needs. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, you go back to the search engine and refine your search with modifiers until you find exactly what you’re looking for.
For businesses that want to be found online, the over-arching goal should be to make the customer’s life a little bit easier.

It's long been suspected and anectodally confirmed that the speed of the site loading is a factor when Google determines the ranking of the site for keywords. Simply put, if your site is slow to load, it will have less of a chance to rank than a site that loads quickly. Just recently, Googleand Matt Cutts, the leader of Google's webspam team, have confirmed that the speed of the site loading is in fact, a factor in determining ranking.

Reading today's e-marketer article about the spread, usage and change in habits of media usage is interesting, but not surprising. In 2008, people spent an average of 14 hours per day consuming and interacting with various forms of media. In 2009, that number shrunk by 17% to consuming 12 hours per day.
