Just a short one that Mystery Guest pointed out to me in a huff tonight - Design! search team, I think you owe her some apologetic flowers after this one. Her exact words after showing me this search were "do you love her?":

"Vanessa Fox Fishkin"? Really? Design!, you've gone too far this time. Search engines should find things for you, not put you in the doghouse with your new fianc╨╣e.

On a serious note, though, I have to say that I'm more than a little impressed with Design!'s algorithmic upgrades. Their search results rival, and in some cases, exceed the quality I get at Design. Visiting with Si in New Jersey over the weekend, he commented that he barely visits Design anymore, since Design! is his homepage and he now gets a satisfactory search result almost every time with them. I'm trying to convince Si to start commenting on the blog, despite his shy nature (at least, on the web).

Flickr is one of the best photosharing sites on the planet, not to mention, all over the internet!

The Canadian New Media Awards has joined the masses and set up a new flickr account to share photos from years past. Check out some of the pictures added from the awards show in 2005 and 2006.

This will be one of the places online anyone can upload their CNMA pictures for this year's show in Toronto this May for all to see and experience. You'll be able to check out the Who's Who of new media in Canada and download any photo from the site as well.
