NASA Fired Will Carpenter for writing a short story. "Some kind of harrassment," they said, and since Texas is an at-will employment state, there's not much he can do about it. Is this story a valid means of self-expression or a harrassing glimpse into jilted anger? I've stumbled across more and more news stories about people being fired for writing, and students expelled for writing "dark poetry" in the classroom. How much do you have to keep secret from your classmates and co-workers?

Revolution is Not an AOL Keyword

Revolution is Not an AOL Keyword 03/20/2003 01:01 PM
Eddan Katz has posted a brilliant, high-larious, hyper-linked adaptation of Gil-Scott Heron's "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" to bIPlog, entitled, Revolution is Not an AOL Keyword:

You will not be able to stay home, dear Netizen.
You will not be able to plug in, log on and opt out.
You will not be able to lose yourself in Final Fantasy,
Or hold your Kazaa download queues,
Because revolution is not an AOL Keyword...

Revolution will not be right back after
Pop-up ads about eCommerce, eTailers, or eContent.
You will not have to worry about a
Cookie in your browser, a bug in your email, or a
Worm in your recycling bin.
Revolution will not run faster with Intel inside.
Revolution, dude, is not getting a Dell.
Revolution will increase your Google rank.

Revolution is not an AOL Keyword, is not an AOL Keyword,
Is not an AOL Keyword, is not an AOL Keyword.
Revolution will be no stream or download, dear Netizen;
Revolution must still be live.

Banning By Keyword?

Banning By Keyword? 08/09/2004 03:09 PM
It's well known that China blocks out certain websites, but their latest move to stop people from accessing content the government considers harmful is to have certain local search engines ban keywords. Apparently, popular Chinese search engine Baidu has a list of about 40,000 banned keywords. It's not entirely clear what happens if someone does search on a banned keyword (0 search results? told you've searched on banned words? immediately told to report to the local prison?), but with so many banned keywords there must be an awful lot of collateral damage in terms of perfectly reasonable websites that can't be found. Of course, it's been clear for a while that the Chinese government really isn't too concerned with "false positives" in their efforts to ban anything they consider to be "harmful" online.

Keyword Chicanery

Keyword Chicanery 04/04/2005 03:30 PM

Does anyone have any current data or opinion on the legality of using a competitor's name (both business and personal name) in the keywords for a site?

We have a client whose competitor has listed the client's business name and the client's personal name in their keywords in a sleazy attempt to capture search traffic (it's a professional services business where as many people know the business owner's name as know the company name). It's not working, but it just pisses me off on principle.

I know this isn't the first time this has happened, but if someone can enlighten me on where we stand legally, I'd appreciate it. I'm guessing the answer is a big "you're screwed," but I figured I'd check.

Keyword Press Release

Keyword Press Release 02/11/2004 10:56 AM
Hotspot firm issues press release with good keywords: When you see a press release of this form, a company has paid Business Wire or PRNewswire to distribute a press release that contains as many business names as possible to meet keyword matches at stock and news sites for investors and analysts who scan for information. In this short release, the company mentions Subway (which is only tangentially related, as the consultant they're trumpeting having hired is a franchise holder) in the headline, and a host of firms in this sentence: Currently, the company is targeting the ownership and operation of successful franchises such as Dairy Queen (NYSE:BRK.a), Subway, McDonalds (NYSE:MCD), Burger King, Baskin-Robbins, Ben & Jerry's, Carls. Jr. (NYSE:CKR), TCBY Yogurt, and Mrs. Fields. Back when Amazon.com's affiliate program for allowing sales to be referred to them for commissions was new, the tiniest dotcoms would issue press releases that they had "partnered" with Amazon.com when, in fact, they'd just signed up as an affiliate. Amazon.com started enforcing a contract provision that said affiliates weren't allowed to issue such releases. This release goes a step further, as the company has no direct relationship with any of the firms mentioned; this is just unabashed PR keyword spamming. The company's own site only lists a handful of locations in press releases; there's no location finder. Did you notice I didn't mention the firm's name? I'm not out to give them more indirect publicity....
