Tonight all of us will be the witness of who is being crowned Miss Universe 2009. The next big question is did this winner look like she does now even a few months ago? And will she look the same when she hands over her multi-million dollar tiara this time next year?

Google Browser
Points to www.google.com/chrome, but I can’t see anything live there yet. In a nut-shell, here’s what Google Chrome to be:
Google Chrome is Google’s open source browser project.
As under the name of “Google Browser”, this will be based on the existing rendering engine Webkit. Furthermore, it will include Google’s Gears project.
The browser will include a JavaScript Virtual Machine called V8,
built from scratch by a team in Denmark, and open-sourced as well so other browsers could include it. One aim of V8 was to speed up JavaScript performance in the browser, as it’s such an important component on the web today. Google also say they’re using a “multi-process design” which they say means “a bit more memory up front” but over time also “less memory bloat.” When web pages or plug-ins do use a lot of memory, you can spot them in Chrome’s task manager, “placing blame where blame belongs.”
Demographic Bidding with GOOGLE
Google AdWords service is testing a feature for advertisers to use “demographic bidding.” This means that you can specify that your ads will only be shown to, say, women over the age of 55. Or perhaps you have an online store for men’s clothing, then you can target only men. You can also specifically exclude a certain group.

GOOGLE Giant single online Marketplace
Hard to believe Google which is now the world’s largest single online marketplace came on the scene only a little more than 8 years ago, back in the days when Amazon and Ebay reigned supreme. So how did Google become the world’s single largest marketplace?
Well, the short answer is “the Semantic Web” (whatever that is – more in a moment). While Amazon and Ebay continue to have average quarterly profits of $1 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, and are successes by any measure, the $17 billion per annum Google Marketplace is clearly the most impressive success story of what used to be called, pre-crash, “The New Economy.”
Amazon and Ebay both worked as virtual marketplaces: they outsourced as much inventory as possible (in Ebay’s case, of course, that was all the inventory, but Amazon also kept as little stock on hand as it could). Then, through a variety of methods, each brought together buyers and sellers, taking a cut of every transaction.
