No Stopping Silver’s Climb!

admin — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 06:05:06 +0000

watch?Its awesome to watch the rise in the price of silver over the last few months. I along with many others see it moving just like oil and gold. Every time the price of oil bumps up so does silver and its becoming widely known.
Hope my good friend Ed Freeman can still keep those beautiful American Silver Eagles coming to my door. Only regrets with my silver investing is that I didn’t sink a few hundred dollars a month into it starting a couple years back. I think the silver snowball program actually needs to add a 10oz bar to the mix and really start ramping things up.

Don’t just drink green tea for its excellent health benefits, eat green tea! Its widely known that green tea is full of antioxidants and is an absolute superfood. So why should we eat green tea? The answer is simple. There are over 10,000 antioxidants in whole green tea leaves compared to brewed tea. Not all green teas are grown or treated equally however. Many are exposed to harsh conditions including chemical treatment. When obtaining green tea for eating make sure its a 100% organic source.

Foursquare talking to search engines over sharing data

Foursquare talking to search engines over sharing data

Social networking company Foursquare is in talks with Microsoft, Google and Yahoo over using its data to help enrich search results.
Social networking company Foursquare is in talks with Microsoft, Google and Yahoo over using its data to help enrich search results, UK paper The Telegraph reported on Monday. According to co-founder Dennis Crowley, the data would be anonymized and then shared.

Foursquare is one of the most rapidly growing social networking services on the Internet. Last week, it signed up its two millionth user, just three months after signing up one million. Word of mouth seems to be driving a lot of the growth, as friends sign up to follow one another.

By the nature of the service, search engines could be able to spot trends in what people are doing by check-in data. In turn, they could use this to better results on location-based searches.

None of the companies would confirm the talks were happening, and Crowley did not specify a time frame when the deals could be signed. In any case, Foursquare would be following a similar path as Twitter did: the company’s first content deals were also with search engines.

One advantage for Foursquare is Crowley’s past. He also founded Dodgeball, which was sold to Google in 2005. Like Foursquare, Dodgeball was also location-driven, although was done via text message. While Google ended the service in 2009, Crowley has maintained a close relationship with many at the search giant.

Some are not as impressed with the possibility of a tie in with search. Writing for Business Insider, Nick Saint seemed non-plussed by the news.

“It’s an attractive idea in theory, though it’s difficult to see this data being widely useful just yet,” he argued. “Foursquare’s two million users are impressive, but not enough to shed much light on what places people in general are going to.”
