Peter Maas, New Yorker, and Salam Pax

Yeah - here's a good read:

http://slate.msn.com/id/2083847
in Slate you will see the article from Monday by Peter Maas, who realized AFTER the Iraq trip that his interpreter was the real Salam Pax!

"Baghdad was hectic when two blogging friends e-mailed me to suggest that I track down "Salam Pax." I had no idea who or what they were talking about. I could have handed over the job of sorting out this Salam Pax thing to my interpreter—he was a clever and funny Iraqi who never failed to provide what I needed, whether it was interviews or pizza—but I let it pass. I thought I had better things to do.

This is funny and great to read!

Ok, What Does It Take To...

Get someone, anyone to place a comment? Geez Louise, it must be months since that happened! Ok, got to remind self that this is cyberspace=cybervoid=vacuum? Does anything happen in a vacuum? I think yes, it fills with blog posts.

Read about Turbo10, a new search engine that is a competitor to Google in that it used different methods of search and results returned. Got the whole scoop on the Register (UK) today at:The Register

Back later after I play around with Turbo10. It seems that a user can establish different customized lists of search engines that are in the top ten searched by Turbo10. For instance, if it is a news event, you may choose to have only search engines specializing in news searched. This helps to weed out some to the commercial sites. Another cool thing is that you can choose to search online journals that are not usually accessed by Google, Altavista and the like.

Comments, eh?

A Firmament of a Site!

Found this today after a friend from Europe sent me a link for a conference she recently attended. This is a search engine that is truly bizarre and yet fascinating. One types in a known URL and the search will pull up the page with all the words on it made into active links!

For the heck of it, I put in the URLs of various blogs and public sites I have, and went on fantastic journeys cued from words or even individual letters. Try it out - tres cool!
