Please don't drink the kool-aid folks. I am going to tell you why the cloud, for all its good, has the potential to be so wrong, especially in the case of Google's Chrome OS if this becomes mainstream.
So Why Do You Hate The Cloud?

First let me say, I appreciate the benefits of the cloud for many things. It has many pluses, especially with regards to... &#62;&#62;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=standardsgirl.com&amp;blog=4642463&amp;post=186&amp;subd=seobandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I see articles like this one and it saddens me http://www.jboye.com/blogpost/forget-about-accessibility-in-2009/. The writer is not wrong, as I am sure the arguments he suggests are ones that are brought up in board rooms and legal departments everyday, however it saddens me to think that we need government to make people do the right things. However, I know businesses will rarely choose something only because it is the right thing, so let me tell you why it is the smart thing.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=standardsgirl.com&amp;blog=4642463&amp;post=97&amp;subd=seobandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

At PubCon this past year, InLinks was the newest link buying platform and though they received a strongly worded letter from Matt Cutts, my guess is that will stop few from giving inLinks a try. But I wonder sometimes, why all this focus on links when there are many things you can do to get a site to rank, straight out of the box without them. Now, I am not saying you can rank well and permanently if no one links to you. What I am saying is, with good on-site optimization, you can make it to the top ten without a single link and a PR of 0 and then you can follow that up with good white hat SEO and SEM and get there without all the fuss of chasing the link and the algo.

Now I know the first people to slam me will be those who say, "have you tried to rank for the PPC...<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=standardsgirl.com&amp;blog=4642463&amp;post=60&amp;subd=seobandy&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

While personalized search sounds all warm and gooey, I currently deactivate all forms of obviously tracked search (note the key term there is obvious).
