google-glitch1

When I pasted the search word "impede" as I wanted to look up its meaning, the text was pushed on the left side of Google search box.

It’s probably some remnants of the Google Glitch yesterday, when Google marked all websites in the entire world wide web as Malware.  Apparently, that was a glitch in their program, but was fixed right away.

This is funny to me, and I literally LOL…ROFLOL…(rolled on floor laughing out loud).

I copied a term from MS Word, opened a Google search page, and pasted the word: impede.

It populated on the search box itself, then went offset to the left side.  It yielded 2 “impede” words…one outside the search box, and another in the search box itself.

It looks funny to me…and this is the first time it happened.

When I tried again, it did not do it again…but, I noticed the scroll blinks on the left portion of the search box.

I call it, a Google slip….and this might not be funny to them.

I am just one of the newest additions to the multiplying Filipino home-based entrepreneurs. Just like any newbie, I remember how anxious I was on how my funds would reach me. I had to browse from forums and blog entries to check whether my Paypal money would go to BDO account.

Fortunately, Paypal is already networked with Philippine banks these days. Though, I tell you not to bother to ask BDO staff or BDO callcenter for they will never give you a great answer. Frustrated enough, I had to email BDO about my concern and here is their official reply:

CALLCENTER (CALLCENTER@bdo.com.ph)

With this information, I guess BDO does not acknowledge transactions made from Paypal.

Though I have continuously made withdrawals from Paypal to BDO until as of this writing, what BDO is saying is that I cannot run after them if any of my funds from Paypal does not reach my BDO account.

Thanks to robots.txt, for it landed me on wordpress.

For 4 years, my blog has been with blogger…and made a few more sites with it. I just realized my blog ranks dropped from 2 to 0 for messing up with some ‘farm links’.

After spending grueling hours figuring out what could have happened to my blog, I read in one of the related forums that WordPress can become a great alternative and is apparently more ‘robots.txt’ friendly than blogger.

We’ll see from here though what happens with my Weblog life onwards. Goodluck to me and the others like me out there! Keep tapping your keys!

Three things:
