Former specialists of Google have announced, Sunday, launching a new search engine called Cuil, in an attempt to exceed in size the current leader in this field, but the team Cuil Inc. (pronounced “cool”), which can be accessed at http://www.cuil.com, provides new search services, and company representatives argue that can access faster than Google wider areas of the Internet, generating more references to a search.

Specialists who created the new program argue that it is not limited to classical methods aimed at the search address traffic and a Website, but examines the context of each page and concepts on which Internet users use them for their searches.

“Important discoveries we’ve made in search technology have allowed us to index a more extensively to inerne and put almost the entire Web to reach our users,” said the executive director of Cuil, Tom Costello.

Danny Sullivan, Web specialist and chief editor of Search Engine Land, is of the opinion that the engine Cuil Asia Pacific to exploit unhappiness that users have to Google that it aims to achieve too much, that the search results displayed in the first row Website popular and that rely too much on some Internet sites such as Wikipedia.

“It’s the right time for a competitor,” said Sullivan, “but to be rival Google is still a difficult task, something that those from Microsoft were convinced to.”

The “spam king” was sentenced on Tuesday to 47 months in prison, the court hopes sends a message to other online criminals.

Robert Soloway, the man known as the “spam king” for the massive volume of spam he sent out, pleaded guilty to fraud, spamming and tax evasion after being indicted in May 2007. After an unusually long sentencing hearing lasting two-and-a-half days, Judge Marsha Pechman handed down her sentence in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington in Seattle.

The case has been closely watched because only a few such spam cases have ever been tried. A man named Jeremy Jaynes was sentenced in Virginia earlier this year to nine years in prison for his spam crimes, and Adam Vitale got slightly more than two years for a recent conviction in New York.

The prosecution argued that Soloway should get more prison time than any of the previous spammers, asking for a sentence of seven to nine years.

None of those cases, not one, comes close to this case in terms of the duration of the maliciousness, the harassment techniques, the high level of spamming activity that we have in this case,

said assistant U.S. attorney Kathryn Warma.

However, compared with some other notorious spammers, Soloway deserved some leniency, his attorneys said. Soloway didn’t damage anyone’s computer, he didn’t send out malicious code, and he never directed people to pornography, as some spammers have done, his lawyer Richard Troberman said. Jaynes, for example, had millions of AOL e-mail addresses that were stolen from the ISP (Internet service provider), and he was earning as much as US$700,000 a month from his activities, Troberman said. By comparison, the government figured conservatively that Soloway earned more than $700,000 in three years.

I was talking yesterday about logo pens and i think a little history of them doesn’t hurt.So..

The history of pens goes back to ancient Egypt, 3000 BC., when scribes used thin reed brushes or reed pens to write on papyrus scrolls.

They used a form of writing with images. By 1300 BC, The Romans developed a form of writing on a thin sheet of wax or wooden tablet. They used a metal stylus. The advantage of this kind of writing was that when they no longer needed the writing, they rubbed it out with the flat end of stylus. In the same period, In Asia, scribes used a bronze stylus.

In the Dark Ages the Anglo-Saxons used tablets filled with wax for notes and for planning the layout of books. They were writing on parchment as well. The “pen” they were using for the waxed tablets were metal or bone styluses. This kind of stylus had a pointed end and a flat end for rubbing out the words.

Giving away pens is considered to be one of the most effective ways for one’s company to promote their services and products. Giving away promotional logo pens as business gifts is a very economical way to advertise a business and that this sort of campaign will establish high brand awareness by visually spreading a business symbol.

As we use pens for simple everyday situations, a pen engraved with a logo will pass from one person to another building a brand recall in people’s minds. This is not meant to make people know everything about a business or a product. But, when a person will be introduced to that company, they will certainly have the feeling they knew about it before. This is how a feeling of trust will naturally come up to them.

Be sure to give away promotional logo pens as business gifts as customers like this kind of small surprise and gift. They represent an inexpensive way to create corporate branding, build market share and show customer appreciation. Give them to your employees to motivate them and build their sense of belonging. If your logo design is professionally made, your employees will be proud to show it to their friends.
