Is your web browser steering you to spend more money?

So, Jessica forwarded this article to me about how Ortiz is presenting shoppers different results based on their web browser, in particular, if you’re using an Apple device.  The results are not only different but more costly.  Why?  Because by tracking their shoppers’ purchases, Orbitz was able to determine that Apple users tend to spend more per night on a hotel.

Let your search engine work for you

Do you Google all the time like we do? Don't like clicking the Next button to see the next 10 results?  You can bypass this limit by using Google's advanced search feature and increasing the number of results per page (choose between 10, 20, 30, 50, or 100 results per page).

Cut your search time in half!

Fair warning:  If you clear your browser cache, it will reset to the default 10 results per page.

What’s this "Surface" thing?

Microsoft has announced an interesting new product called the Surface and it will compete directly with the iPad.    Since she heard the news, Ashleigh has been asking for one. (What are you going to do, she’s a true techy!)

It’s obvious that Microsoft has been doing their homework.
