I have played with Joomla for over a year with hopes of developing with it, but due to the complexity of the system, I have gone to Wordpress. I have been able to crank out websites at an amazing rate because Wordpress is so easy to use and develop with. My only lament is the fact that as Wordpress becomes more well known, I'll have a harder time getting clients! Wordpress is the future of the internet.

The customer clustering model seems fairly popular lately. We've launched a new customer feedback community called SuggestionBox.com. We enable companies to create what you would call micro-customer clusters, BUT keep them in the loop by interacting with them as they move their idea from reviewed through implementation. Check it out, would love to get your feedback, cheers BJ Hello Chief Ingredient!

Canadians can now find business listings by dialing 1-800-GOOG-411 from any phone for free. Apparently the delay was thanks to our unusual pronouciation of certain words. At Google, we work hard to tailor products to specific markets and regions. We believe that accounting for the unique characteristics of each country can make the difference between an OK service and a great one. Although English is spoken in both the US and Canada, there are enough differences between the way it’s spoken in the two countries that we engineered GOOG-411 especially for Canadian English. We incorporated some Canadianisms such as “eh,” “Traw-na,” “Cal-gry,” and, of course, “aboot.” We also took into account geographical differences. Whereas users in the US are prompted for “city and state,” Canadians are asked for your “city and province.” After making a couple test calls, it’s clear that GOOG-411 performs best when you know the name of the business you’re after. For example, instead of memorizing or making a note of the digits of your favorite restaurant, you can call GOOG-411 and connect directly to make a reservation. The service is still experimental but offers all the same features available in the US, such as free call, free connection, SMS info, and iPhone “Map-It” integration. Suddenly being listed in Google’s local search results just became that much more important.
