Scott’s Hot Top (ics)!

Pretty soon I’ll be able to spend more time on the ‘net’  simply ‘cuz Prez. Obama is going to give us all better and free health care.  Whoops did I get that wrong?  About $2 trillion wrong I guess.  In the meantime here is some stuff to stay ‘right’ up on.

Billy Mays — Probably the most viewed person on TV.  And now he is dead.  Heck, Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and now Billy?  Hey BHO we need that free all-inclusive health plan yesterday!

Bernie Madoff – The guy only gets 150 years in prison!  What the heck?  His kids, grandkids and greatgrandkids won’t  be able to spend a fraction of the $$ he stole in that time. Give him 50 more, judge!

USA vs Brazil — At least we won the first half.  Trounced ‘em in fact — it was two / zip at the turn.  How did they score a hat-trick in the second?  ‘Cuz they played better dudes.  Like a lot better.  I saw the last two goals in real-time (thanks ESPN) and we didn’t have a chance!  Just to set the record straight — I haven’t watched a full ‘futbal’ or soccer game in my life . . . and I lettered in soccer in HS.  Snore!!

Kenny Perry — Look out Tiger, a 48 year-old guy is now #1 in the FedEx cup standings.  Maybe time to spend more time on the practice green and less time watching you buddy, Roger Federer, win tennis matches.  Maybe not since Kenny is only a deca-millionaire, and Tiger is . . .  well . . . richer that Midas ( Oprah).

Live, Breath, surch!

SURCH is the new SEARCH

surchur — Tags: , , — monika @

Surchur.com was among the first real time search engines that introduced real time search to the world. Since then 100+ real time search engines appeared, each with unique features, yet neither one comprises of so many features as the original real time search engine. Surchur has more breadth of sources than most – news, pics, videos, blogs, tweets, products and more, one-page overview with a clean URL, the famous surchmeter and so on…but you can read about all these in my previous post http://tinyurl.com/kuefk7

Search has gone through a 180° change since its very beginning, first was the static search, now we have real time search…what’s next?

We are experiencing an explosion of information in a world where each user has deep, personal and even higher expectations. Surchur is raising the stakes and proves it’s practical, simple to use, efficient, swift and with powerful results.

We’re only getting better with every passing month as we update according to customer feedback – check us out – we’d value your opinion!

Once you’ve surched you will always surch ;)

Scott’s hot picks. Who woulda thunk?

Summer began in earnest just a few days ago.  I already miss spring.  What to do when it is sooo hot outside?  Spend some time on surchur and keep up with the ‘keepin’ up on the worldwide web.’  Here are a few assignments to test your abilities.  I expect a report on at least one topic by Friday!

Sarah Jessica Parker — Are you really a mom if you just pay someone else to have your babies?  Heck, my wife says that the process of pregnancy and birth are important to the mother-child bonding (maybe that’s why the kids like her better!).  Guess celebrities are too busy for real life.  When was the last time SJP shopped at Walmart?  Yeah, I thought so.

Jon and Kate + 8 — Oh, my gosh.  The solitary interviews.  Jon is sporting new diamond studs in both ears, Kate lays about showing off the ‘tat’ on her leg.  Is anyone surprised about the divorce?  Once upon a time this show was about the kids.  Now it is about Kate and the $$$ . . . oh, and Jon and the $$$.  No wonder they don’t get along, shoot they are too busy spending the $$$ their kids have earned — on themselves.

Protests in Iran — The election fraud is just a symptom.  Show me one theocracy in all of history that worked.  Let the people decide Supreme Leader Khamenei.  Even the Q’uran says there should be no compulsion in religion (Surah 2 verse 256).

Roger Federer — The comeback kid is hot so far at Wimbledon.  Can he win his record breaking 15th Major title?  Probably, since Nadal is injured — will there be an asterisk?

Transformers 2 — What’s not to like?  Machines that can change from destroyers to likeable transportation — aw come on, why won’t my 8 year old Jeep blow up the traffic jam on the way to work?  Summer Fun 2, just turn off your brain on the way in . . .  this movie is no UP (four stars baby).

Your report should be no more than two pages, double-spaced and spell-checked.  Anything less and you just aren’t paying attention.

See Ya!  But, remember — Live, Breath, Surch!!

Real time bookmarking

surchur — Tags: , , — monika @ June 22, 2009

What do you do when you find something interesting on the internet? Do you bookmark, add to your favorites or you have a very good memory and don’t need to save the URL :) ? A bookmark’s purpose is to store and ease access to a web page – more exactly to a favorite page you chose to save for further checking. By the way, did you know that bookmarking first appeared in the 90’s?

At surchur.com not only you can search for your favorite topic in real time but bookmark it in real time. And yet, why bookmark your favorite topic when you can easily go back later and read about it. Simple, first of all you may forget where you read about it, second if you are a passionate surfer you may never find your way back between the many pages you visit daily…so once the page is safely saved in your bookmarks menu you can check back daily to see what’s new on you fav topic ;)
Try this: surch for let’s say, 4th of July, the upcoming celebration, bookmark it and whenever you check back you will find the most recent information on the topic – this way you will find the most recent updates on news, pictures, blogs, videos, products and can really prepare for this great event.
Surch, bookmark, enjoy!
