Do you want to work at Google?
Have you ever been wondering how it would be to work at Google?
Have you ever been wondering how it would be to work in a company like Google? Well here is a change for you to get a tour at their Chicago Headquarter. In Google they seem to do a lot to make their employees happy and creative. For me it looks more like a playground than a workplace, but who doesn’t want to be working in a playground. Watch football on the job while your computer get fixed and free launch for everybody. That is just some of the thing you can see in this video.
Get an inside look at Google’s Chicago Headquarter:
About Google
Google has over 70 offices in more than 40 countries. Google began in January 1996 as a research project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin when they were both students at Stanford University in Stanford, California. Their headquarters is located at Mountain View, California, United States.
Take a look at my Video page where I have a collection of a lot of cool video clips.
Do you use Bing Webmaster tool?
Are you using Bing Webmaster tool?
You properly already know Google Webmaster tools if you have been working with SEO on your website, but did your knew that Bing has a similar service called Bing Webmaster tool? It works pretty much the same way as Google webmaster tools, but of cause based on Bing’s search engine.
I am no expert in Bing Webmaster Tool, not yet 
Anyway I want to give you my little review of the tool anyway. One of the first things I noticed was that it is 3 day behind with the statistic. That is a shame I think when you are used to use Google Webmaster tool. On the other hand you can add single URL to the Bing Search Engine. That is a nice feature if you have a page that Bing doesn’t index automatically. You are allowed to add up to 50 URLs every month, but maximum 10 each day. That seems like a fair limit I think.
Like in Google you can add a sitemap as a XML file. It works pretty much like with Google. In general I think that it is a good tool, but still not as good as Google Webmaster Tools. It might be in the future if Microsoft add more features to their service.
Check out: Bing Webmaster Tool Bing Webmaster Tool is a free service just like Google Webmaster Tool
Do you use the Bing Webmaster Tool to get more traffic to your website/Blog or do you only care about Google? Please drop me a comment and let me know what you think.

What is QR codes and how does they work?
How does QR codes work?
QR codes is a two dimensional barcode system invented in Japan by Denso-Wave back in 1994. The barcode can represent a text, a phone number or an URL. The QR is short for: Quick Response. The concept of the QR code is that it can be scanned with a smartphone using the camera and a little application to translate the code to e.g. a website or a phone number. The concept was initially used for parts tracking in vehicle manufacturing, but is now used for many businesses.
QR codes might be the new big think in marketing and advertising. In Asia you can already see QR codes on billboards and commercials.
A couple of examples of QR codes:
Try and scan them and find out what is behind the codes.

Happy birthday Wikipedia
10 Years with Wikipedia
Today it is 10 years ago that Wikipedia started. I must say they have been a huge success. After Google I think it is my most used source for knowledge. Wikipedia has more than 3.5 million articles (in English) and the website is available in 262 languages. Imagine what we did before wiki? Looked it up in a book? 😉
If you wonder how big an success full Wikipedia is I can inform you that they have an Alexa rank of 6 (May 2013).
Congratulation Wiki, and keep up the good work.
