There was an excellent NYTimes Op-Ed article on the massive problem Google has become: Search, But You May Not Find. It’s about time something like this was published in the mainstream media.

Domains, Hosts, and Shopping Carts
Thursday, June 11, 2009
I’ve been very busy recently migrating an e-commerce site to a new shopping cart and host, so I thought I’d post a few recommendations related to hosting, shopping carts, and domains.

It Makes Me Sad
Tuesday, May 26, 2009
I work on the web for a living, and am not the first to notice a sad trend. Less people are developing their own websites or writing on their own blogs. They’re using social networking sites like Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter. You might not lose any sleep over that bitchy chick hanging out on Facebook [...]
