My personal Gmail account was running out of space before I did a massive clean up couple weeks ago, by deleting all emails with large attachments.

Well, now I’m expecting such problem will not occur again after this official news from Gmail blog. At the moment, Gmail storage is ever increasing as part of their “Infinity+1” storage plan. Now Gmail is going to speed up the counter and giving out more free storage as time passes by. In other words, it simply means you’ll be rewarded with more and more storage space in every second, every minute and everyday!

Hopefully, your Gmail account will not run out of space unless your rate of using the email storage is faster than the rate of Gmail increase their storage space.

I am a few hours late to wish Google their 9th birthday. In fact, I saw the change of their search logo in the midnight yesterday.

2 years ago, I wished them Happy Birthday on September 9^th 2005, which was 2 days late from their actual birth date on September 7^th that time of year.

Somehow this year the celebration of Google birthday is delayed until the end of September. So, now I am confused which date is their actual birthday.

The exact date when we celebrate our birthday has moved around over the years, depending on when people feel like having cake.

Anyhow, Happy Birthday Google!!

I’ve come across this interesting movie clip called The Google Master Plan in Youtube quite some time ago. It’s a movie directed and produced by Ozan Halici & Jürgen Mayer for their Bachelors’s Thesis at the University of Applied Sciences Ulm, Germany.

The movie basically talks about how Google can use their free services like Google Search and Gmail with their gigantic database for some known, and possibly unknown, purposes. Well, it talks about our privacy as users of Google free services as well. Needless to say, it got me ponder how powerful Google is nowadays.

I’m sure you don’t want to miss this awesome video clip :-

Check out their The Google Master Plan website. There are some different video formats of the movie ready for download too.

Well, I might be a few hours late to blog about this news, but it’s still worth writing. Google has finally ended the speculation of acquiring youtube.com, which already been raised over and over again for the past few months.

Seeing youtube is already serving more than 100 million videos everyday, Google decided to be the leader of online video hosting service in a quick way - by acquiring youtube.com for USD$1.65 Billion! In other words, in this purchase Google has beaten the potential buyers included Yahoo and Microsoft Corp. and media giants News Corp., owner of MySpace.com, and MTV owner Viacom Inc.

Hi all,

It’s been a long time I didn’t update this blog. I’m so so sorry about that.

Anyway, I’m back to blogging and again come back with a good news to all webmasters.

Google is updating its PageRank (PR) at the moment throughout all its datacenters around the globe. In case you are concerning about the PageRank of your websites, you might wanna check out this tool from SEOLog. If you see any difference among the PRs shown in all datacenters, your website might have a new PR soon. Please note that not all datacenters updated the PR, that’s why you’ll see different numbers (if there is any changes of your PR).

To those who will be having higher PR, congratulations!
Sorry for those who might be dropping some PR. Don’t be too sad, instead work on it and I’m sure you’ll have good result for the next PR update.

Until I clear all 2,197 spam comments, I will be back blogging frequently again!
Have a nice day, everyone!

I stopped blogging for 1 week or so but Google just can’t stop releasing new services. Here is another great one.

Google launched its latest service yesterday called Google Finance. It’s an online financial news portal that provides corporate news, information and graphs, and blog entries regarding the specific stock you are looking for. I believe this new Google service is going into direct competition withYahoo Finance, which I patrol quite frequently for stock information. The reason behind launching this cool service is the increase in Internet usage by investors in searching for stock information.
