Jack unmasked?
Posted in :: Apropos of Nothing ::

I've always been morbidly facinated by Jack the Ripper, so this caught my eye:
Yahoo! News - Crime Writer Says She's Got the Ripper's DNA

"Best-selling crime novelist Patricia Cornwell thinks she may have uncovered Jack the Ripper's DNA and that it could be a match for a British artist who liked to paint morbid scenes of violence against women."


If you are also facinated by the Jack the Ripper mythos, be sure to read the amazing graphic novel From Hell, recently made into a not-so-good Johnny Depp movie.

dirty pool? Google a public utility?

Ryan points out The Google gods - Tech News - CNET.com

"Pragmatists in the industry even say its dominance in Web search gives Google a new responsibility to maintain fair access to as many sites as possible, leading some to suggest that it be regulated as a quasi-public agency. Last week, for example, an Oklahoma marketing firm filed suit against Google in federal court charging that Google unfairly began listing the company lower in search results.
"So many people are dependent on Google's free editorial traffic that it's like food out of their mouths to lose ranking," said Danny Sullivan, who runs Searchenginewatch.com. "Search engines are not in the business of supporting people's companies. But if they are going to provide editorial, they need to provide support. "
