Is Hotmail Blocking Gmail Invitations?
06/09/2004 10:57 AM
This could just be an isolated incident,
but last night I got my first Gmail invites, so I sent one to my
girlfriend's Hotmail account and it bounced. So not only may
Hotmail be blocking the Gmail invitations (which, honestly, I doubt,
but it's just shady enough to question it), but I wasted an
invitation that I won't get back. Anyone else had this problem?

CMP Says It's Not Blocking Google
CMP Says It's Not Blocking Google
06/25/2004 11:54 AMCMP Techweb.com's editor in
chief, Fredric Paul, says the report I linked to yesterday is incorrect. He
writes:
Anyway, we saw that you picked up the
CyberJournalist piece on CMP blocking access to our stories from
Google News. I don't know where that came from, but it is wrong. We do
not and have never blocked access from Google or any other search
engine. That's easily testable, try it yourself.
We do, however, intercept links from certain competitors who reproduce
significant portions of our stories on their own pages -- sometimes
even stealing the first link-- before they finally post a link to our
original material. In most cases, the intercept we put up allows the
reader to then click to their intended destination. Other major
technology publishers, including IDG, do similar things.
We're not just old media, and we're not completely
clueless.

Now Google Getting Sued For Blocking
Trademarked Terms
Now Google Getting Sued For Blocking
Trademarked Terms
12/12/2003 03:10 PMA few months back, France fined Google for
selling
ads based on trademarked terms. I was surprised, because in my
own experiments with Google ads, I've had a few ads that were rejected
because they (according to Google) contained trademarked terms.
Personally, I don't see how buying a keyword is, in any way, a
violation of trademark. The point of a trademark is to protect the
company from having someone else appear to be you. You can't sell
Bob's Cola and put a Coca-Cola label on it. However, if someone is
looking for Coca-Cola, there's nothing wrong with suggesting they
might also want to look at Bob's Cola, as well. Anyway, now it looks
like Google may get hit from the other side as well. They've been
fined for selling ads based on trademarks, and now, apparently,
they're going to
ge
t sued for blocking ads based on trademark complaints. The
pending lawsuit apparently says that Google is banning ads on terms
that aren't trademarked as soon as anyone complains. That is, Google
doesn't check to see if there's an actual trademark - they just ban
the ad as soon as there's a complaint. The group that's going to sue
says they've brought together over 3,000 complaining advertisers who
have had ads blocked. As mentioned, I've had my ads blocked too, but
this seems like a ridiculous lawsuit. Where in the law does it say
that Google
has to sell you ads for whatever you want? They
have the right to reject ads for whatever reason they want. It is
their system, after all. If people believe they're blocking ads
unfairly, then isn't that an opening for competitors to better serve
advertisers by offering them something that Google doesn't?
Big Bug: Google Blocks All Results When
Blocking Spam
Big Bug: Google Blocks All Results When
Blocking Spam
10/28/2003 11:08 PMSeth Finkelstein has made a startling discovery, backed with lots of
evidence: when a spam result comes up in a search, Google not only
blocks the spam, but every result after it. This means that for
searches where spam results manage to rise to the top, very few --
sometimes zero -- results will be returned. Examples: motorcycle
candle, keyboard bracelet. These are common words for which you'd
expect to see results (in fact, the latter even says there are
thousands of results) but the bug prevents them from being seen.
Eliminating the spam pages (by blocking a word, antenna, that appears
on them) allows full results to be displayed. It's pretty amazing that
such a serious bug made it past Google's tests. It will be interesting
to see how quickly it's fixed....

07/02/2004 03:08 AMApparently Google is not real happy with the way some people have
been selling and swapping Gmail invites. Specifically banning sales
and swaps. That being said the third round Gmail Invite contest I was
going to have is not going to be held. Instead as I have invites
available I will reward people that I feel ad value to the sites
through good commenting. The wording of the changes in policy do not
specifically ban the type of contest we where having but I do not want
to jeopardize my account and any that we have given out. [ZDNet]
