<description><![CDATA[I was just reading Vanessa Fox's recent post about privacy on Facebook and how they are now gonna be open up to the search engines. Since I do enjoy myspace, it make me question how Myspace was being indexed. I Googled the URL of a known private profile. Sure enough Google had it indexed. Obviously if you click directly to the profile you cannot get in, however, upon clicking Cached - you can see the whole profile. So what is Myspace up to? My apologies if this is an old topic, but it sure isn't a corrected issue.<br/><br/>4 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Mark Cuban made his $2.3 billion fortune as an internet entrepreneur and now in a recent Portfolio.com interview, Cuban says the internet is &quot;dead and boring&quot;.  &quot;We have reached the point of diminishing returns with today's internet. The speed of broadband to your home won't increase much more in the next five years than it has in the last five years. That is not enough to work as a platform for new levels of applications that will require much, much higher levels of bandwidth.&quot;<br/><br/>16 Vote(s) ]]></description>

Do not post offering services to clients generally.Looking for a job in online or search marketing? Feel free to post. Note: Only openings for actual positions can be posted.

<description><![CDATA[It doesn't appear that too many of us sphinners or sphinncters are voting on individual comments. I have done it a couple times myself but what are the actual benefits of it? Is it like a Karma system for that particular user or are actually comments able to be ranked in a list?<br/><br/>2 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[It's been awhile since I have used the Keyword Selector Tool but I noticed today that my search results are displaying as &quot;Searches done in January 2007&quot;. Now either I am 6 months late on this or it started recently. Can anyone confirm that it is just a typo on their end and how long this has been going on?http://inventory.overture.com<br/><br/>4 Vote(s) ]]></description>

I think we need to have one as well for the website we all love but can't pronounce.I was going to start it off, but this one is tough.<br/><br/>6 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Step right up folks! Get your SEO caps on and pick up your I Ching. Since PageRank is considered by some for &quot;entertainment purposes&quot;, I figured &quot;hey let's get a betting pool going on it&quot;.So what Google PageRank do y'all think that Sphinn will get when it shows for the first time on the toolbar.And Matt Cutts, you can't play.

<description><![CDATA[We all know that the fabulous people using Sphinn are marketers. We also know that we, as marketers, are blood-sucking desperate link mongers who will do anything for a good link right? (okay, so i may have gone a little too far with that description)My question is, how many of the topics submitted over the next week or two will just be re-hashed articles written over the last year or even before then? I realize just because its old doesn't mean its not relevant and I know Danny won't be complaining about all the content coming his way. But it will be interesting to see if Sphinn gets slammed (or spammed) or will this site be used for more current information -- which is the whole point, right?<br/><br/>4 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Well now that Threadwatch is gone, I know a bunch of us marketers are looking for a place to fill the gap. My bet is that Sphinn has the best chance. It gets away from the tired old forum and blog format and gives us a Social Media style outlet were we can interact a little bit more without getting editing out.<br/><br/>35 Vote(s) ]]></description>
