As for courting google, I couldn't really give a dingo's kidneys, but I have found a few interesting blogs while searching for (usually unrelated) things, so I guess indexing does have some uses. Oh, and gmail makes a great receptacle for storing automatic nightly backups of WP databases :cute:.

I suppose it's because most people who care about these things have such mindnumbingly boring content it's the only way they can hope to snag a reader.

This is really a hobby, a past time - but people feel their blog deserves an audience "I must be heard, for I exist" - or something equally horny. i admit I use gmail but only for the junk entries - my private email remains spam free while gmail takes it like a good girl. google sucks, and those following google like lost sheep need to pull their fingers out of their....ears I couldn’t put it better myself without the use of excessive profanity, a hammer and a panda with herpes. i find it absolutely staggering that people jump like puppets at the announcement of google something. if google offered virtual google pets you an bet your arse that everyone will want one (god don’t nick my idea you gits!) o neither desktop, while Mr google with his big fat chocolate fingers gets off on watching the privacy stats coming in.
