 Leaving aside socioeconomic issues that prevent many parts of the world from having access to computers, mobile phones, or broadband, the panacea of an always-connected populace to access with all content, regardless of location, computer or Web browser, is still very far away. Thanks to overzealous individual governments or convoluted legalities that often involve copyright, the Web you see is likely far different from that enjoyed by the country bordering yours. Even in my short visit to the UK this week, I was annoyed to find that some of my data was blocked thanks to my newfound geography.

The phrase "geotardation" is one I often see from my cranky Canadian friend Steven Hodson, or his colleague, Duncan Riley, as the pair fight through blockades from the north or from Australia. But I haven't had to experience it, thanks to being in the domestic United Stats for the vast majority of my life - and started think about it more this week as I hit site after site that behaved differently if I was surfing via an IP address that resolved to ".co.uk" instead of a simple US IP address.  Louis Gray Sept 20 2009

What does Google think of Duplicate content and multiple sites? (video) | TechBurgh Blog and PodCast

 Google put a great post up (video and slideshow too) about how Google handles duplicate content and multiple site issues.
I’ve always told my clients that Google doesn’t penalize sites and site owners for duplicate content. They just concentrate more on relevance and distinction.
As long as duplicate is legitimate and not spam (intentional manipulation) it’s valid for Google Search.
There’s a definite difference between penalties and site SEO. Duplicate content, link dilution and URL structures don’t necessarily make for good SEO.
Also, another misconception. Multiple domains hurt sites. Wrong. multiple domains are great SEO. If correctly managed.

Panasonic's Robotic Bed makes sleeping with robots a reality

Panasonic's Robotic Bed makes sleeping with robots a reality: "

Know what we hate? The long groggy walk from our beds to the computer. It's only 10 feet but its potentially dangerous and honestly, exhausting. Panasonic's Robotic Bed is set to change that by automatically transforming from a static bed to a mobile wheelchair... and back. Once converted, the robotic chair can navigate the home while avoiding obstacles with 'no need for training,' according to Panasonic. The canopy is fitted with a television and plugs into the home network so you can control home appliances and view security cameras. Obviously, its primary purpose is to give people with limited mobility more independence. However, bloggers can dream can't we? The Robotic Bed will be unveiled for the first time at the Tokyo Big Sight show on September 29th.
