Google-xmas

Seems the guys at Google have got all festive suddenly!

Has anyone else noticed the images alongside the paid search results?

They only appear under seasonal search terms, such as “Christmas”, and are no doubt doing wonders for improving the CTR.

As the data shows us, despite the credit crunch, online is doing well: people are spending like mad! Although despite showing us all a little bit of festive spirit, this could also be a ploy be Google to make their ads stand out even more. But at least it feels like Christmas when you’re online!

Sock and Awe

An online game is proving to be a surprise hit, following the recent attack on George Bush in Iraq.

So some bright spark made a game out of it, which is being circulated by email – but you can also find it online! Go play it!

Monkey Business
