For XML geeks: How the Web Bug Simulator Works.

I linked to the Web Bug Simulator readout in the left margin of this page. The third item. I called it HotX's because I couldn't think of a better name for the readout. I know it's a mess. I'm going to have to do a special site just for this service. They're XML. They're hot. You want to watch it. It's the place where weblogs meet the BigPub's and don't give an inch.

A demo of a Google bomb. On Saturday I decided to try to become the authority on Rob Enderle. It search?hl=en&q=Rob+Enderle&btnG=Google+Search">worked. A mostly harmless experiment, I hope. I've been playing this game since I noticed that I had become authoritative on Segway">John Doerr (he's a board member at Google). At the Segway demo in December, I met Google founder Larry Page and wrote it up. I told him Google likes me. I became authoritative on Segway too (as did Dan Bricklin). In December the NY Times said that Paul Nakada's Segway weblog was authoritative, but I guess their link didn't count because Google can't get into the Times because of the cookie requirement. But Scripting News did, so if you search for it, you find my reference to the Times article. So I'm kind of a weblog proxy for the Times. Heh. What a funny small world. Later this month you'll find out why it's even worse than it appears. Tease.

OK, it gets even wierder. Sight unseen, I'm going to point to Glenn pointing to the NY Times which is running two articles on WiFi. Glenn says "The New York Times Gets It." That's good enough for me. See how this shit works. Glenn is the authority on WiFi. If he says the NY Times is out to lunch, I believe him. If he says they have two articles that are insightful, I point sight unseen. This is how Google evolves to capture human intelligence. More and more I think we and Google are exploring two sides of the same mountain. [Scripting News]
