I just deleted a post…

Wow… you pulled the story completely. I hope you’ve learned to READ things before post. Or do you just get excited every time you think you read something you can cause an anti-Google shitstorm with?

How can you complain about the Register when you are just as bad sometimes?

Ron: cause I admit my mistakes when I make them.

i just tried posting a comment there…hmmm, i don’t really get what’s ur point Ron? as in the initial post…

btw that thing didn’t work on my IE 6…

and Scoble…the MSN Search vs Google site is so cool…and btw if u look at the two, which do u think has the better (cleaner) interface…

I don’t care for opinions and such if that was the problem, but could we who missed it at least know what it was in regards to? Was it some kind of news or just fake/incorrect info that was linked to?

Richard: I linked to a Google employees site and thought he was advocating the Internet Exploder code. He wasn’t. I’ll come back to the issue later.

exactly…that’s why i rambled on about the interface changes in my mail

Robert: “…cause I admit my mistakes when I make them.”

No, you don’t. You just disappear, and you’ve shown that often enough. Unfortunately, your old comment server seems to be gone. I’d gladly do the research for you.

One example? Remember how badly you screwed up on Nextstep for Intel? And there were lots of others. You never admitted it, you just stayed calm in many discussions of this kind.

Ralph: the NextStep info came from Dan’l Lewin. He was a co-founder of Next. That’s why I didn’t admit I was wrong. I just never named my source. He watched as I typed the words into my browser Window. I was reporting someone’s opinion. His opinion hasn’t changed. He hasn’t asked me to change the post.

Did you delete the one about Rohit pointing out poor search results, and asking about finding soccer blogs too? It’s in your feed but not on the site.

Yes, I deleted that one too. Weird, so I bet the post I deleted is on my feed too.

With Rohit’s post, I didn’t notice that he mislead me by linking to a query that was deep in the index.

Kevin: neither post is in my feed here: http://scobleizer.wordpress.com/feed/

Oh Robert…how dare you misread or misinterpret something and post about it. How dare you make a mistake…how dare you pull a post. If only you were perfect like the rest of us.

Robert: thanks for the heads up! Now I don’t have to feel so out of the loop

Robert, you got it backwards. XXX is increasing diversity in the YYY market by pushing the product with the lower market share.

Nona: so diversity is a good thing for XXX? Really? Are they telling people to do some of their searches on Yahoo? Yeah, right.

This isn’t about diversity.

Of course it’s not about diversity in all markets. It’s about diversity in the market for YYY.

If XXX thinks that they can get most users to switch, then you are right. They are pushing for a single YYY. Do you really think that XXX has the goal of getting most users to switch? It seems unrealistic to me. A more realistic goal is to increase the balance in the market.

Ouch, I just read the post. It’s still in my feed reader. Smart move IMO, but I do see the point implied.

Paul: yeah, deleting posts can’t happen here.

Here’s his post for those wondering – he had hoped to cause an anti-Google witchhunt with it, but it kind of backfired (as his most of his anti-Google stuff is). I guess you just can’t paint another company as evil as you’d like. The question is – why do you keep trying to paint Google with the evil brush?

Google employees push sites that only work with one browser

Ahh, let me get this right. Google is pushing a single-browser solution. And their employees are advocating putting code on your site that’ll turn off Internet Explorer.

I wonder what the reaction from the blogosphere would be if Microsoft tried such a strategy against Firefox?

At least now you know why I said Google would be nuts to do its own browser.

By the way, who has the most standards-based search engine? Hint: it’s not Google. Do a “view source” on MSN and Google and you’ll see the answer.

Oh, and who has a cookie that lasts until 2038? Ahh, yes, even Google knows the answer to this one!

You can learn that and lots of other things about Google on the Google Watch site.

If you want the links and all, just check it on that site that was linked via pingback:

I think Chris Coulter has driven Scoble to major drug use. Doesn’t seem to react well when mixed with koolaid, however!
