Seeing as I how I have been bombarded with advertisements for the Microsoft’s “decision engine” Bing for the last several months, I have been wondering just how Bing was fairing against Goliath, and thanks to this post I now have a great chart to answer my question.

It looks like nobody is that impressed with Microsoft’s new attempt at search (so far at least) and Hitwise has the numbers to prove it.

While I do think that Google offers the best product available when it comes to search, I would like to see a little more competition. I mean seriously, if we are not careful they are gonna start taking on whole countries . . .

That’s right! Now you can edit your Youtube videos through Youtube’s very own online video editor, TestTube.

The new video editor allows users to combine multiple video to create longer videos and add audio from Audoswap.

You can even create new videos and publish them to you YouTube account with a single click.

While you cannot make complex edits and cuts, the program does allow users trim the beginning and endings of videos and add multiple videos to a single time-line.

While I suspect most YouTube junkies won’t want to toss out Adobe premier just yet, the new editor will help novice users with the simple edits they once needed additional software to perform.

Thanks the Marketing Pilgrim for the scoop and Rewboss for the hilarious and rather informative video on how the program works.

Happy editing!

Google recently started allowing users the option to add a background image to the classic Google homepage. Some have accused Google of “borrowing” the idea from Bing, and I can’t help but agree there is a striking similarity.

Last week Google announced that they would be adding the option as part of homepage revamp, but for some reason Google decided to force users signed into a Google account to use background images for brief period of time beginning Wednesday night, a move that turned out to be tremendously unpopular among the Google users.

After only 14 hours “remove google background” had become the seventh most popular search phrase. Google quickly pulled the plug on the forced background image experiment and the option had completely disappeared from the homepage as of midday Thursday.

This morning the option resurfaced as a link in the bottom left corner of the homepage; however, this time Google has wisely given users the option to enable the background image if they so chose.

While this may be a small victory for Microsoft’s Bing it is far from monumental. Google is still the biggest bully on the block with almost 85 percent of the search market, compared Bing’s 3.24 percent.

Thanks to Daily Tech for the scoop.

So you are finally getting around to developing a web presence, or maybe you need to revamp a website you had built years ago. If you haven’t already, you should be taking a look at Joomla.

Joomla is an open-source content management system (CMS) that can be used as the foundation for almost any website. Joomla started as Mambo but after a falling out between the owners of the Mambo name and the core developers of the CMS, the developers decided to branch out on their own and Joomla was born.

Joomla is a customizable content management system that allows users to quickly edit and add content to their websites with little or no knowledge of html or other complex coding languages.

In today’s Web 2.0 world creating fresh, relevant, and engaging content is the key to improving your web presence. Joomla gives you this ability without having to make physical edits to the code of a website, making it an ideal choice for those who want to have an attractive website that can be regularly updated with new material but do not want to have to employ a full time web designer.

We can teach our clients how to work within the administration panel of Joomla edit and update their content or we make these changes for them through one of our affordable website maintenance packages.

Our hosting plans offer one click Joomla installation with full access for clients who want to try their hand at creating their own Joomla-based websites, but we recommend that our clients tell us about their needs and let us do the heavy lifting.
Joomla is supported by thousands of developers and offers a wide range of custom components and that can be used to create a unique and personal experience for your websites visitors.
