Oops is right!

Formspring.me the forum designed to allow users to ask questions and then the owner of the account to answer them has apparently stopped working. At lest when you try to sign up. If you try and sign up one you fill out all the fields you will get the message saying "Oops, something broke we're working to fix it!" we tried it 4 times and got the same thing over and over. Never the less Formspring.me is still and amazing service.

Googles search for iPhone and Android are down.

Update: We’re getting reports that some people can access Google Mobile Search, and others cannot. We think it may be regional, but we’re not sure. We will update you when we learn more.


This is a strange anomaly that we’ve just come across. It looks as if Google Mobile search has taken a tumble. Our attempts to search for anything on three different phones (two iPhones and a Nexus One) have come up empty. Tweets are rolling in about the problem too. However, it looks like other phones, including the BlackBerry, can still access Google Search. Google web search is also still up.

Google is having some type of issue, but whether it’s a server issue, a bug, or something else, we don’t know. We’ve contacted Google and will get back to you when we learn more about the outage.

Ding and Bing = Cha Ching

Bing the Microsoft search engine started off in a bolt dominating everything and being said that it could downthrow Google. It has over 28,000,000 separate visitors after 3 months of being on the web. Well, it looks like another search engine that rhymes with Bing, Ding has done the same. Ding, is a social media search. It searches site like Twitter, Facebook, Myspace etc... it is also believed they will also be search sites like Digg and Lala. The site got somewhere between 100,000 and 120,00 visits today alone almost as much as sites like Bing do. It has gotten an estimate of $10,000 in today alone as well, and had caught the eye of many large companies.

Google countdown reaches zero

Googles homepage countdown went down to zero at midnight this morning and it was caught on video! So here is the video! Seems like a real step up from the last few years of Google new years.

Posting links just got a little harder

Facebook as you know has always done the same as Myspace, Bebo, Friendster, Tagged, hi5, and Ning. They put those confusing letters to make sure your not a bot when you post a link, Frankly, I think its annoying. But anyway well Facebook has upgraded theirs making it actually easier they put to dots on part of the word and the word goes into them changing colors. Screen Shot below. The question is, is this Facebooks and Facebooks alone or will other networks like the ones we listed earlier start doing this to.
Can you tell us what it says in the comments below?
