OK, so as everyone blog-related and probably no-one not blog-related knows, Yahoo has launched the public beta of it's answer to the huge social bookmarking thing , and Google now has Google Personalized . I just did a half-hour test-out of them both, and will keep testing them as I go. This is very much a lay-person's view of these services - I am not one of the many bloggers who has been secretly beta-testing for weeks. But I think, as an amateur enthusiast, it's useful to see how these work for the majority of web users who are even less tech-savvy than me.

Your site is quite interesting. I was wandering around the internet, and decided to google someone I haven't seen in 15 years or so. I met a Carol Mockbee when I was around 9 or 10 years old, and we kept in touch through letters over the years. It has been a while since we last wrote, but I was wondering if you had any contact info that you could give me, e-mail, phone, etc. I do know that the Carol Mockbee I knew was a pretty girl, and she did go to Auburn. That's all I know, and she did live in Alabama growing up. Anyway, if you could send her contact info to me @ aucoin12002@yahoo.com OR travisa@bollingershipyards.com, I would appreciate it. If not, I'll have to look elsewhere, somewhere down the road. Thanks.
