Naver search challenges Google search. It really does!

Have you guys heard of Naver? It’s a south Korean search engine that’s challenging google’s philosophy. Unlike Google, Naver search would get you in touch with other humans who are searching and they would be able to answer your question.

Of course the credibility is a good question. But the concept is good. Isn’t it cool that you can actually question the result of your search?

Google cuts Cookie Lifespan for Privacy

Google in it’s blog has announced that it will reduce the lifespan of the cookies installed on the computer of google users.

The blog stated, “In the coming months, Google will start issuing our users cookies that will be set to auto-expire after 2 years, while auto-renewing the cookies of active users during this time period. In other words, users who do not return to Google will have their cookies auto-expire after 2 years. Regular Google users will have their cookies auto-renew, so that their preferences are not lost. And, as always, all users will still be able to control their cookies at any time via their browsers.”

It went on to add “After listening to feedback from our users and from privacy advocates, we’ve concluded that it would be a good thing for privacy to significantly shorten the lifetime of our cookies – as long as we could find a way to do so without artificially forcing users to re-enter their basic preferences at arbitrary points in time. And this is why we’re announcing a new cookie policy.”
