by Ross Dunn At Yahoo Anecdotal today Yahoo announced that they had recently opened the Yahoo Accessibility Lab; a place where only Yahoo employees (for now) can experience the world of the Internet as a disabled web surfer would. The blog posting also states: " In addition to simulating the disabled experience, the Accessibility Lab also provides a growing collection of books and videos that we hope will help visitors become more comfortable with the culture of disability.

Hey folks, I wanted to let you know that new toolbar PageRank values should become visible over the next few days. I'm expecting that also in the next few days that we'll be expiring some older penalties on websites.

Just a quick reminder that Dave Kaminski and I are hosting Web Video Marketing: Trends, Techniques, and Copywriting Tips tonight at 7:30 Central ( time zone converter here ). Here's the event page with call-in and web cast interface. We've got room for 200 people on the call, but any number of folks can listen via the Flash web cast.

Miley Cyrus is on the market, and anyone who doubts it can see for themselves in this hard-hitting interview from MSNBC. The "Hannah Montana" star is officially "lookin'." Let the jostling begin. Of course, if you're really hoping to be noticed by the 15-year-old phenom, you might put your money where you mouth is and make a bid . The Cyrus' foundation, which benefits underprivileged kids, is auctioning off a date with the Disney darling.

Dear Diary, This will be last entry. Federal agents are at my door. They claim they have the right to seize you, my dearest friend. I keep telling them that I played a princess in two Disney films so they have no jurisdiction within my kingdom. Unfortunately, they seem nonplused by my pleading. You may be wondering why you are being taken from me. As it turns out, it's all due to my ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri . You remember him, don't you?

Reunited and it feels... lukewarm to painful. An aging FBI partnership take another shot at a big screen redux, while two grown comedians go at each other's throats. The Dark Knight's not even flinching. 1. " X-Files 2: I Want to Believe " (PG-13). The '90s sci-fi series has cranked up the nostalgia mill, with reviewers reminiscing about their favorite episodes .

Domains using the full character spectrum aren't really supported well in browsers, partly due to security issues... so entering something like b?cherei.com (the German word for library) will resolve into what is called a punycode address, namely xn-bcherei-n2a.com. This kinda ruins it for serious uses, but still, there's domains out there using more than just ASCII letters.

A Googly-Facebooky linky goodness todayyum! Gee, after a day of wide launch , only 33% of knols rank on the first page of Google . But they're not given extra weight. No. Why doesn't Google host long-form video? Because it didn't work out for Google Video , apparently. Oh, the irony. Google's own Blogspot.com is the No. 1 host for malware according to a study by Sophos. Unsurprisingly, Facebook is still growing faster than MySpace .

For now, Microsoft may have gave up on acquiring Yahoo and lost its only hope of catching up with Google in the search and online ad department. But it wouldn't just rest that easy and so it has to turn to a new ally in its quest to boost its search and online ad business - Facebook. Although Microsoft and Facebook already has an existing agreement with Microsoft serving graphic display ads on Facebook pages,

Facebook and Microsoft have been linked in the news beforeespecially after a deal last October where Microsoft purchased a 1.6% stake in Facebook for $240M. This year we've seen multiple reports this year that Microsoft might buy the social networking sweetheart. Microsoft has had a limited search and advertising deal with the social network for almost two years and their deal last fall included contextual ads.
