A judge uses some common Ad Sense: On Saturday, I blogged a preview of Google’s legal week and posted this screen grab of what a Google search results page looked like when I entered the word “GEICO.” Today, a federal judge dismissed the major claim in a patent infringement lawsuit GEICO brought against Google for serving up competitor’s ads when the word GEICO was googled. It’s now a few hours after that decision: I wonder what happens when you now google the word GEICO. Like magic.
Update: My apologies if this post has wigged out anyone’s newsreader. I’ve messed around with the code so much that links were headed everywhere but what was promised. I think (but am not sure) all works now.
International flavored vaporzine: I hope the “multimedia”, World BBQ magazine, et al, vaporzine has among its multiple media, peel-and-sniff strips.

“We are using the Internet to pull all of the countries together, and until the print magazine is available later in 2005 WorldBBQ.com will serve as our window to the world. Filming is already underway for television, and we have just completed our audio recording facilities. Our Chef’s Studio is currently testing over 800 barbecue sauces, rubs and marinades, as well as grills and cooking tools.”
Anticipating a comment by rexblog reader Hudge, no, I see absolutely no connection between this and two recent magazines blogged here: Texas Driver and the plastic surgery women’s magazine, New Beauty.
Blog lite day: I’m with some really great folks “retreating” today, so things will be quiet on the rexblog.
