One of the funniest bits was you getting pounced on by Jay (Str0ud) for the <a href="http://www.jaysglasses.com" rel="nofollow">Jay's Glasses</a> thing - but you were a good sport + joined in!!

I use Palm Desktop for all my calendar needs because I have a Treo, but when I try to import the export from Palm Desktop software, it doesn't register properly. Do you think there will ever be support for this *.dba format? I do wish that there was Palm Desktop import capability though.

My biggest issue now though is that for some reason when I sign up for new google services like adsense, adwords, sitemaps, etc... Google won't let me use my existing account. I'm running out of email addresses to set up new google services. It would be nice to see a Google Accounts Beta! Hey Matt, I was so excited to see google calendar out!

This kind of drivel has been spouted so often, that many people are actually beginning to believe it to be true. The notion that a "quality" website is something concrete and tangeable, for example, is plainly ridiculous. But the notion that an algorithm will be able to easily discern this intangeable is even more so. I'd be particularly interested to hear Adam's views on the design of an algorithm that accurately measures the "useful"ness he so flippantly refers to. "Show me ONE innocent site that got banned as the result of an algorithm, and I’ll show you a spammy site that had you snowed." Hmmm. So detecting SPAM is easy is it? 100% accurate? No collatoral damage at all? I guess Matt C is out of a job then. Problem solved. don’t usually post on forums, but Adam Senours’ comments have moved me to this little ditty.
