Mobile Vanity Numbers

Mobile Vanity Numbers 06/22/2004 09:26 AM

The BBC carries word of a Bahrain man, Abdullah al-Hammadi, who makes a living by selling unique phone and license plate numbers. His latest, "9111119" has been put on the market for $13,200. And he'll probably sell it, too -- a previous number sold for $7,000, and a "man once bought his son a license plate for $16,000," to "encourage him to work hard."

Department of Motor Vehicles/Vanity Plate: This is a great idea for a state Web site. However, getting "Gadgetopia" in readable form on a license plate is tricky.

Manipulating Google For Vanity And For
Politics 01/22/2004 06:28 AM
It seems some people just can't get over their obsession with Google results. The practice of "Google bombing" - getting a bunch of people to link to a specific page with a specific phrase, so that a search on that phrase returns the page, even if the phrase has nothing to do with the actual page - is turning into a political war as people on all sides of the political spectrum are trying to associate various negative words or phrases with politicians or policies they dislike. This was sort of amusing the first time it happened, but now it just seems really childish on all sides. It certainly doesn't do anything to impact anyone's political beliefs. To me, it seems like the online equivalent of a writing something bad about someone on a bathroom wall. Meanwhile, though, there's another interesting trend that is less annoying: buying ad keywords on your own name. The idea is not to influence the main Google search terms, but to have some say in pointing people to a specific site if they're searching on your name. It also lets you know how many people are searching for you, as that will show up in your Adwords statistics. It's becoming especially popular with freelancer or individual professionals (doctors and lawyers) where people are likely to search on their names. Apparently, it's become quite a trend. I have no idea when this started, but the first person I heard do this was Glenn Fleishman last July. Of course, there's a price involved - you have to pay each time someone clicks on your ad.

GOTMILF? Not anymore, for vanity plate
car owner 07/22/2004 06:40 PM
Michael Syravong thought he'd pulled a fast one on Washington's Department of Licensing when he got a license-plate that read "GOTMILF." He told the department that MILF stands for "Manual Inline Lift Fluctuator," But eventually, bluenoses who are somehow familiar with the true meaning of the acronym (Google it for the not-safe-for-work answer), complained to the department and Syravong lost his plates.

Mobile Vanity Numbers, Saudi Style

Mobile Vanity Numbers, Saudi Style 06/23/2004 07:40 AM

Reader Majid Almadi sends this interesting bit about mobile vanity numbers in Saudi Arabia:

In regards to your story about Mobile Numbers. The problem is way more prevalent here in Saudi Arabia.
- In newspapers, at least 40 percent of personal ads are about 'Special' Mobile numbers or license plates.
- People have been doing it for years. Recently, the Telecom Company and the traffic department caught on and started holding 'Auctions' for special numbers to get in on the action.
- The mobile number 055555555 was sold for SR 250,000 (US$ 67,000 Approx).
- Any requested mobile number starts at $250 for any request whatsoever (say 050xyzabc) and increases as similar numbers are grouped (for example 050xxyyyy).
- It is not uncommon to find listing for License plates these days that are sold for $US 5000-20000.
This is probably the only country in the world where there people who live off selling and buying numbers (License Brokers), and live quite well.
- Recently, due to the over expansion of the Telecom Industry, the Saudi Telecom Company (a long standing monopoly) added an extra digit to mobile numbers to accommodate the growth. The papers were flooded for weeks with complaints from people who owned 'Special numbers' saying that their status (for some) and investment (for others) were downscaled because the extra digit (a zero, now can be changed to a 5 for a $7 fee).

Today your teacher announced that your school is going to have a science fair and students are responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel? Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project, rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2003. http://scout.wisc.edu/]
