Too busy to write anything lately. Got very few mails as well.  I wonder if there is a relationship b/w the new diary and the clicks. Every time I browse the home page of jiaoyou, I would like to take a look at new members, and new diaries. Also, the diaries with chinese characters of few strokes, or English attract my attention...

Once upon a time (actually just about a year ago, however, since web-ad has proceeded with strides, one year seems like a loooong time ago...), a friend who ran a web based consulting service complained about how difficult and expensive it was to ad through google.  Some serious work is needed to analyize the info collected  (another way google makes money).  I know she is not good at quant, but may need to run some regression since she has accumulated lots of data by now.  Identifying the way/keywords to increase the web exposures at relatively lower cost can be her new competing edge.
