Having let more unread posts pile up like a massive pile of unread posts, I’ve decided once and for all to declare Google Reader bankruptcy. George Bush, I Can Haz Bailout?

Got an email this morning from Google claiming one of their advertising products will be retroactively branded as DoubleClick. Huh?

Has Google Reader (or Google Accounts in general) implemented a stricter timeout system for logins, does anyone know? I’ve been automatically logged out several times today with the above message cheerfully displayed when it never used to happen before.
I’m thinking it could be my newly cleaned out cookie whitelist for PermitCookies in Firefox, but just want to make sure. Could Buzz have anything at all to do with it perhaps? If they are timing out sessions earlier it could be beneficial for security but I tend to have Reader permanently open in a tab and I’d hate to have to re-login every hour or so.

Google Buzz was launched recently, and unless you’ve been living under a rather large rock (presumably with a cavity big enough for your entire body) you would have seen the outpouring of criticism with regards to privacy — I’m saving the fact I’m not using the service because I don’t see the need for it for another post! Speaking of which, when was the last time I logged into Google Wave?

Google’s creative and unconventional logos celebrating certain events and milestones throughout the year are fun to watch, but their latest one for Google Singapore shows the local versions of their sites aren’t so local!

Google didn’t seem to like me today. Firstly Google Reader gave me this blank page instead of my usual cheery Unread Items (100,000,000+) message, then less than an hour later I tried to view a YouTube video and was presented with this delightful error!
I never did have that green tea I promised myself a few days ago. I blame that.

Did you know, if you do a Google Video Search for politicians on Google Video Search (well that was a redundant sentence addition), the first result you get is a video titled "Politicians avoiding questions"
I think that says it all, sadly.

It’s been over a week since Google’s surprise revelation that they would no longer be filtering search results in the People’s Republic of China and the shock still hasn’t seemed to have worn off for most people. I think we’re playing up the significance far too much.

While my dad, sis and I were on our Eurotrip over the New Year holidays (photos coming soon) we were placed in self imposed 24-hour-instant-Twitter-news exile, which to tell the truth was kinda refreshing. The only thing we had to worry about in Europe was being buried in a freak Irish, German, French, Czech or Austrian snowstorm, or finding plastic explosive in our baggage from Slovakia on arrival in Dublin. But I digress.

Hello Moto! While I love my iPhone to death ever since I got it in 2008 and think it’s the single greatest electronic device I’ve ever owned (I’m serious, it’s had that much of an impact on my life) I’ve been keeping a keen eye on the competition, and this Motorola Milestone is the first to come along that looks really tempting, and circumstances mean I could potentially get my hands on one as soon as month from now!
