35 views | GoGoHub: New Search Engine To Rival Google, Craig’s List Lexington, NC, December 4, 2008-The soon-to-be launched GoGoHub website has a very lofty but achievable goal: to rival Google and Craig’s List. GoGoHub aims to rival Google and Craig’s List in terms of providing ng more benefits to its users. The online classified ad market all over the world generates nearly $100 billion every year. Google earns $19 billion in terms of ad revenues yearly. Amazon, on the other hand, generated $10.7 billion in classified ads in 2006. “While these companies are earning this much thanks to your continued patronage you can never expect them to share a larger part of their income with you,” GoGoHub Professional Marketer Vid Artukovic said. However, GoGoHub aims to rival these companies in terms of providing greater benefits and larger incomes to their members. GoGoHub positions itself as a direct competitor to Craig’s List because it offers the GoGoHub Free Classified Ads. Unlike Craig’s List though, GoGoHub will use banner ads and featured ads which adds value to the site. GoGoHub is a lso a search engine just like Google which will allow users to type in a certain keyword and do a quick Geo-Targeted search of the item they are looking for. The search is limited to the categories and subcategories indicated in the GoGoHub website. What makes GoGoHub unique and possibly bigger than Google and Craig’s List in terms of benefits given to their members, is the ability to share in the company’s growth from the beginning stages, by investing in the GoGoHub Investment Opportunity.

Boing Boing’s video tracing the origins of Lolcats to a 1912 comic strip, The Laugh Out Loud Cats, is a parody. Or a satire. Or whatever it’s a joke OK? I would say I can’t believe people think this thing is for real, except they do and I believe that.

Meet Ivan Morrison, a Canadian IT worker and moderator at Ivan’s Support Haus Forum. For his recent 31st birthday, he treated himself to a detailed, multicolor tattoo of the iGoogle logo on his right deltoid. Why did he give over his own fleshy real estate to the search engine’s customizable homepage? He tells Valleywag:
Well since Google came out, I have been so “into” the company, the technology they use, and the sheer global power this little “search engine” has grown to become that I knew that I would someday get the Google logo.
This man is not well. If the iGoogle tattoo doesn’t tell you that immediately, know this: He has a Windows XP logo tattooed on his left arm. Evidence after the jump.
So, Ivan, care to explain your original tattoo?
I got the XP tattoo as the Beta of XP was launching, I always wanted a tattoo and wanted to make something permanent and since MS has always been good to me, providing me the means to work really, being in computer support, I have always been a supporter of the MS line of products, I currently hold my MCP in various MS technologies. The XP tattoo was the first that I know of, I got it in March 2001, just before XP released. I have been in the IT industry for over 12 years, and am as into as I was back when I was 12 learning DOS and Amiga Workbench 1.1! oh those were the daysSo for the past year, I have wanted to get a new tattoo. The one I have now is great, and since I won’t be upgrading the tattoo to a new Vista one [Ed. note: ha!], I figured I would go with something new, again Geek all the way, a heart or dragon just wouldn’t mean anything to me. so the Google logo was it, and when I saw the IGoogle logo, day in and day out on the only homepage I have, it really seemed to make sense. So last week on my 31st birthday I went to the local tattoo shop and found out what it was going to cost and time frame, [Ed. note: $65 and 30 minutes under the gun] but since I wasn’t planning on it, I went back this week, art work in hand and a desire to get some “ink”.
