How to Advertise on Video Online
Yesterday, I spent the morning with Rob Young over at The Goss Agency. Rob is a very talented individual and we always have interesting discussions. I enjoy working with people that want to do what’s best for the client. Rob is that kind of guy.
(I also know he reads my blog, so I like him for that, too!)

Google now showing Video within search results
Google has been doing some pretty cool stuff with search results this week. In particular, over the weekend they started showing video within search results.
Try typing “rat monster joke” or “star wars kid” into Google and you will see options for watching videos within the results.
If you look through the results, you will find both Google Video and YouTube results that you can watch without even leaving the search results.
Nice touch. I like it.

25% of all searches on Google are NEW
According to this report by Manoj Jasra, Google reported in their Searchology event yesterday that 25% of all searches every day are NEW.
Very interesting. That’s an amazing fact. One can’t help but wonder what types of strange things people type into search engines. Then again, if you look at your web logs, you’ll find some pretty strange stuff out there.

Google “Universal Search” – by CNN
This article on CNN elaborates more on what I blogged about yesterday. The new home page by Google is part of what they are calling “Universal Search”. A kinder way of saying “use everything we make, not just search”.
NOTE: Special thanks to my wife for sending the link over to me. (Clearly, she reads CNN, but not my blog.)

The biggest change to Google happened today!
Google is practically famous for its never-changing, ever-simple home page at www.Google.com.
But today they made a couple of major changes based on user research. The changes may not seem like much, but for a website this popular and with so little on the home page to start with, it is a bit of a landmark.
1. On the home page, they moved the links above the search box to the top left corner.

Who are you? What the web says…
Online reputation management is something that every business owner should probably be more aware of. When is the last time you typed your business name into Google?
