January 31, 2006Briefly Coming Up For Air
Hello, I'm still here, just letting you know that I'm still finishing the book. Screenshots. Three arghs for screenshots. Argh, argh, arrrrrrgh! Despite the fact that I'm not writing much on ResearchBuzz at the moment, I'm still reading a lot,...
January 24, 2006All Quiet on the ResearchBuzz Front
Hey guys, I've dropped into one of my periods of radio silence because I've been book-busy. The book busyness this time has to do with the last round of edits on my book from Prentice Hall. I don't know what...
December 14, 2005Tech Talkin' At WRAL
I really like doing ResearchBuzz, but I also like writing about the Internet as a whole. There are many times when I see a resource or Internet "thing" that I'd like to cover in ResearchBuzz, but I don't because it's...
September 22, 2005Broken, But Only a Little Bit
Gentle readers, I spent some time cleaning up the site this afternoon, and probably caused a lot of 404 errors. I'll fix them as I have time -- the important thing was to get the directories in some kind of...
September 06, 2005We Appear to Be Back
We appear to be back. However there's going to be some goofiness for a while, so please be patient. The templates were hosed, but I didn't like them anyway, so the place is going to look a bit generic for...
Okay, are we back yet?
Tap tap tap....
August 27, 2005ResearchBuzz.com Domain Used in Spam
The ResearchBuzz.com domain has been spoofed in what looks like a pretty massive spam. After getting crushed beneath the weight of the bounces, I am having to seriously revamp the way I receive e-mail. Because of that you may get...
July 23, 2005Hi!
Hey! I'm back! Did you miss me? I missed you too. Keep sending in the cool things you've found and your site suggestions. I've gotten a little more breathing room so you're going to see some serious updateage in the...
June 09, 2005Welcome EVERYBODY
Welcome readers of CNN, the AP, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, etc etc etc. Thanks for visiting. Unfortunately it rained and poured; I have a ton of updates to post on the site, all of which should be here by tomorrow morning. So...
March 20, 2005I Have a Hundred Billion Things To Post
Wading through my umpy thousand messages, and seeing that I have a loooooot to talk about. I got a lot of press releases and announcements to read, but one search engine was conspicuous by its absence.... If someone knows who...

There are two types of people in the world: those who will happily sing along with the Oak Ridge Boys' "Elvira" whenever they hear it on the radio ("Hmm pappa hmm pappa hmm pappa maow maow") and those who will...

January 28, 2005Goobering Up the Site
I did a pretty serious upgrade to the site last night; the URLs have been changed so that they're title-based instead of number-based. At the same time the old number-based URLs will still function. However, as I was upgrading I...
January 07, 2005What Fahree Means
A reader just e-mailed me asking what fahree means. "Fahree" is my way of spelling free so that spam filters don't beat my newsletter to a pulp....

September 07, 2004New User's Guide to ResearchBuzz
New User's Guide to ResearchBuzz is finally available. I did a few more things. Probably the biggest thing is now there's a JavaScript implementation for adding the site's RSS feed to your site. Actually, four RSS feeds from the site...
July 01, 2004I goofed up.
I reviewed the wrong MSN site. I don't know whether to blame the early hour, the lack of caffeine, the time squeeze, the fact that I'm sometimes a dip, or all of the above. Anyway, I got some serious reviewing...

I spent yesterday doing some toting and lifting with the Web site. I did some cosmetic stuff and some cleaning, but I also made a couple of major changes that I think will make it easier for you to find...

(Dear Phil, thanks! and sure, you can if you want, though ResearchBuzz has the most boring privacy policy ever. I think we used a wizard to generate it. Have a good weekend, ResearchBuzz.)...

Today's ResearchBuzz may be late or nonexistent. Thanks for your patience....
March 26, 2004Word of the Day -- Searchgunk
SEARCHGUNK: Material found in search engine results that's irrelevant to the topic for which you're searching. Not necessarily useless, bad, or the result of search engine spamming -- just not relevant to what you're actually trying to find. Ex: "Amongst...

ResearchBuzz started in 1998 as a companion to the 2nd edition of Official Netscape Guide to Internet Research. When I started it I had no idea it would still be going strong in 2003. I also had no idea that...

We're up to over 1000 entries and all the missing pages have been added. I think. I'm sure you'll let me know if I'm wrong. :->...
November 17, 2003Status Reports
Most of the templates have been completed, but there are still several pages missing. I'll try to add in the missing pages over the next few days; the "official launch" will be Thursday. There are some goofy dates and I'm...
