Google AdSense Revenue Down, And Ads Not Matching Site Content
12:28 am on Aug 1, 2013

Ok, this is crazy. I've been with adsense for over 5 years. I run one large site that is about writing and publishing. We are down 50% in rev from last year at this time and down 25% from last month. I haven't seen numbers this low since 2010. There is also all kinds of crazy behavior. The ads are not matching the content. Some ads are junk. The settings in adsense do not match what is showing up on the site. Set to no interests based ads, still showing them. We are also getting those "download this" buttons and all kinds of other crazy behavior. The impression are 1/2 of what they were but our numbers are showing we are double the visitors from last year.
I have a security company that has scanned the site to make sure no malware or other tech is causing the problems. Anyone seeing this kind of behavior from their sites? I'm seeing ads that have nothing to do with the content, and nothing to do with what I have ever searched for. Any ideas?
Also changed some of the locations of ads to make sure they are not by drop down menus. This hasn't been a problem in the past, and I was very careful in the first place. We've removed anything that would even come close to that like "share this." They were not covering ads. Nothing seems to help. Any ideas or comments please...

welcome to the club of low earnings :)
there is no solution to our problems because big g is not giving us any answers, but be happy for them because they are breaking a records :)
another billion more for them, another billion less for us...

What's going on? Who the hell knows! With very algorithm change, there are bound to be bugs and cracks that need to be tweaked. Let's face it, the more you tweak, the more room for error, then you tweak to fix errors, causing more errors and so on. G has MANY cooks in the kitchen. Things will even out, then look a mess again. I';s the "nature of the beast".

Oh yes it sucks, welcome to the club of "trying-to-understand-Adsense", take a look around, this has been happening to many users and now some more.
I've been having low numbers and this week... even more. I'm confused because just finished a big migration of two strong sites, well one that is the most specially productive, but after having recovered from low lows, I reached 50%...... and just this week 25% as you say.
It sucks not being able of figuring what affects what

The thing that kills me is that most of the ads that are placed on our sites are there for free. Any other place and any other time in history those ads would pay to be there. Now not only do we have free ads all over our sites, they are TELLING us we have to do it for even less. Magazines with the same circ as our site collect 2500 per ad. On the internet not only do the people have to look at the ad, they have to call the number before you get paid....this is the ONLY game in town, live with it or too bad.

My observations are that I am seeing a drop in CPC, clicks and requests are fairly stable at my end. Had the lowest earning day ever yesterday!
Why do I think this is happening?
The latest updates don't help, by giving people exactly what they want, and not what they need in the search results there is little reason for surfers to click an ad.
Revenues of advertisers are being squeezed. 4 of my clients have pulled their adsense campaigns mainly due to the drop in traffic from the organic results, 3 have pared back their spend.
So we have less advertisers, paying less money and Google sending people directly to relevant sites giving users less of a need to click on the ads.
My personal Adsense revenues are now so low I'm running at a loss and will be pulling the plug on a few sites soon for purely financial reasons.

A lot of publishers (but not all) are reporting this.
First of all, you could take a look at your traffic. Are you getting the same amount of traffic (from the same sources, percentage wise) as you did in previous years? Traffic amount and quality makes a difference.
Second of all, you should probably read up on all the gazillion changes that have taken place in AdWords (the advertiser side) because many of those could also be affecting you. You can't ever really understand AdSense until you also have a good understanding of AdWords.
Third of all - what about mobile? Does your site work for mobile, meaning do the ads work in mobile too? Check your analytics to see what other devices are visiting.
On the internet not only do the people have to look at the ad, they have to call the number before you get paid....this is the ONLY game in town, live with it or too bad.
Not true, there are other ad networks, like Tribal Fusion and media.net. But for many they don't pay as well as AdSense.
The thing that kills me is that most of the ads that are placed on our sites are there for free. Any other place and any other time in history those ads would pay to be there.
Yep, and I'm sure you know the answer to that too - if you have a large targeted audience, sell your own ads. I just came off my biggest AdSense month ever after eight years, but I'm also selling direct ads - next year I plan to send out mailers to prospective advertisers, in fact. Despite doing really well, my CTR has dropped alarmingly over the years; the only thing saving me is that the EPCs have gone up considerably. So I don't want to rely on what Google does. But of course, direct advertising takes more work.
In exchange for the ease of finding advertisers for you and paying reasonably on time every month (and paying more than many other networks) and ease of implementation (just place some code and forget it) you give up a ton of control. That's the offer that Google makes, and they haven't been too interested in making significant changes to that - because they don't have to. Their focus is more on the advertisers and not the publishers.

Did you try to mark the relevant text on your pages as ad-sections? There was some kind of markup (don't remember the syntax) to exclude non-relevant text on pages so the ads get more targeted.

I'm doing well too but have the reverse of your metrics and when one goes up the other comes down.
Anyway, I came to the forum just now after noticing that my text ads are no longer showing favicons next to them. My results improved considerably in one particular unit type/color/font with the favicons, so much so that I was starting to worry that I was sending too much traffic off site. My bounce rate climbed a good deal, until now.
Any word on if something happened to shut the favicon testing down or is it just temporary(or just me)?

@egem44 You are not alone, I am in the same industry. My clicks and impressions are dropped but I am still getting decent traffic from US. I think getting traffic from US means quality traffic isn't?
I had a chance to discuss my issue with Adsense consultant 2 months ago and I asked why in my niche some people have given special ads (premium publishers) and why not me? My website has all original contents and gets decent traffic from search while most of my competitor sites are just junk in terms of design, contents and traffic. She replied "I will discuss with the team and get back to you soon" and since then I never heard back from her.
I am an Adsense publisher since 2005, my whole business model is depend upon on Google and it's products. Now, I am realizing that I made a serious mistake on relying Google. I wish I had chance to go back and fix my mistakes.
Anyway, it's still not too late for me. I am changing my business model and hopefully will never use Google as a business dependent again in MY LIFE!

I'm not sure that's still true. I went looking for that last month when someone asked, and it looked like it wasn't in the help docs anymore; they may have discontinued the targeting code. With so much interest based advertising going on, maybe it's outlived its purpose.
Any word on if something happened to shut the favicon testing down or is it just temporary(or just me)?
No, they're not showing for me today either. Maybe some glitch that they have to fix.
One more thing re interest based advertising - the reason Google is so into interest based advertising is because it works. As an advertiser on behalf of my clients, I know that advertisers *really* like interest based advertising, because it converts like a mofo. I'm reasonably sure that
across the board
interest based advertising is quite lucrative for advertisers, publishers and Google. But that doesn't mean there won't be some collateral damage, and some sites won't do as well with IBA as they do with straight contextual. That's unfortunate, but I don't see Google reversing that trend. So disable IBA at your peril.

Even though advertisers are the ones paying, we are the one doing the service. My site is one of the largest in my topic, and we are the largest one who uses adsense. All other sites, that do what I do, depend on paying reviews or paying members. So if I stop running adsense a 100 small junk sites will get all those ads. Say what you want, but that matters a lot. I've started running paid ads this morning. We tripled our earnings a couple months back by doing this. I want google to be 1/3 of what we make, but at this point it doesn't make sense even to keep them on the site if the earnings go any lower.
This is like working with a company, the company makes you a 1/2 million or more over a couple year period, and then you decide to change the rules on them? Open your pay check and boom, less money? It's not right. We are going to paid ads too. What we need is a PPT ads. That's Paid per time, just like newspapers and magazines and television. PPC, PPA are like going door to door, it's never going to be stable.

AdSense is what it is, and it's not likely to change, because for every publisher that drops out, there are a ton more to take his or her place. And those 100 junk sites that replace you might end up making Google more money than you do; if their sites are really junk, people will be more anxious to leave them.
We're none of us as high in the ecosystem as we'd like to be, but that's the product that Google offers, and buried there in the terms of agreement they reserve the right to change the product (and make no guarantees as to the continuing success of the product) as a condition of signing up.
That's why my partner and I take the AdSense money and use it to fund other websites and marketing efforts, instead of trying to live off it.

I Agree adsense is sliding down hill, I think its why a search on G ads cover 90% of the page they need to keep up the income.
I do agree ads don't match page, i didn't notice you now could turn on or off user-interest ads in your account. have you tried kontera or chitika might be worth testing. I had a low day because I turned off user-interest based ads but what happens is you lower the bidding for your site, so you get less PPC. My CTR went up, but CPC down.

Ever since they added those silly icons next to the URLs the income has tanked for lot of publishers. On the other hand lot more people are saying earnings are up.
9:40 pm on Aug 1, 2013
(gmt 0)
I've tried Kontera, Chitika, Infolinks, Commish Junk (and 10 other PPAs). I've worked with just about every earner on the web. They all have about the same model. They earn 99% of the money while we run free ads. The more you partner with, the more you realize how much they cheat. Everyone of them has the same issues. They don't report impression correctly (wow!) they magically miss clicks, they have rules that work on their side, but not yours. Do you see where g places their ads on search engines and in emails. If we did that they would take away clicks.
It's all the same right now. We are working in an environment where publishers have been told (like Nutmeg) that what we do isn't worth anything (not high on the food chain). It's not true. We are replacing TV, Magazines, how to books, and many more media, and we have been trained to think (everyone has) that the internet should be free and that hard work on the web is nonesense unless you have a Facebook idea.
The only reason it is this way is because we allow it to be. Tribalfusion asks for 500,000 unique visitors per month and, they for many sites, don't pay as well as Adsense! This means the site has a higher circulation than Reader Digest, but they aren't worth millions, they are only worth about 3-5000 per month. That's because the millions are going to Tribalfusion. Those people are still looking at ads and buying products just like if they read Reader's Digest, but the person that runs the 500,000 per month website thinks it's only worth what those ppc, ppa companies will pay. Ridiculous.
How many of you have seen a Full Sail University ad? I've seen 1000s of them. I've never clicked one, but I know Full Sail. I know it is an online college. I know they offer course in writing, media, television, and a bunch more. Never clicked an ad...all of that came free to full sail just for running ads with G, CJ and other PAs. They are getting all the benefits of ads, just like before, but they don't have to pay US for them.

I never said what we do isn't worth something; it's worth a lot. That's why I *can* get good money for direct ads. I said that in Google's ecosystem, you are low man on the totem pole - that's the way they designed it (remember at first ads only appeared on their own search pages) and it's working for *them* so they have no incentive to change it.
If you want to make more money, you need to create your own ecosystem. Sell your own ads, or use affiliate ads, or create a subscription model for premium content, or start your own email list and market that way, or sell e-books; heck I've done tee shirts and tote bags for some of my sites. All that takes a lot more work. Google is not going to just hand out money when they find the advertisers, they monitor the fraud (which is WAY more rampant than you probably realize), they collect the money, they pay it out pretty much like clockwork, and all we have to do is grab the code and put it in the source.
ALL publishers have had to work for their ad revenue, ever since publishing began, be it print or be it online. AdSense is probably the easiest money pot in history short of the lottery. And the online ad world of 2008 is WAY different than the online ad world in 2013 (did you read any of the other stuff I said to check on?) That's why it's called Webmaster Welfare.
I realize you're upset and want to rant a bit, but ranting isn't going to put any more money in your pocket. GOOGLE ISN'T GOING TO CHANGE ADSENSE to favor publishers, so you need to change. Honestly, if I felt as badly as you do, I'd take the code off all my sites immediately; why do business with someone you distrust so thoroughly?

This was where I was ranting and venting like everyone else nutmeg. Why are you peeing in my pool?
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize all you wanted was to rant. We have plenty of that here already. Maybe it's because you waltzed into the forum as a new user with the same sense of entitlement about your rant as you appear to have about AdSense. Maybe because you are deliberately mistyping my username. Or maybe it was because of this:
Any ideas or comments please...
You didn't mention you just wanted ideas or comments that agreed with you. Now that I know that, I won't respond further. Carry on. And way to make an entrance.

netmeg, I'm sorry. I did not mean to mistype your username. I honestly didn't know until you just said that. I thought it was nutmeg! LOL. Yes, it's true I came in to your space, jumped on the board and started ranting, and yes I did ask for ideas and comments. I was rude. It's true. I'm sorry, but can't you just rant a little with me! Kick stones with me and say, yeah man this sucks. I did not mean to be rude to you. I am really sorry. I didn't mean to pee in your pool either. This is your space, you're right. I did come in and track my mud all over. Excuse it please. I'm having a bad week. Adsense is down, hit with a server bug, had dental surgery (so I do have a little pain meds in me lol). Either way, just pump your fist in the air with me one time, don't go away mad. I'm sorry netmeg.

It's all good, and I'm sorry about your teeth. Look, nobody likes to rant more than I do (just ask!) but it's usually confined to my own playgrounds (my site or my twitter feed) and full of blood and extreme profanity (which is not allowed here).
I got 99 problems with Google, but AdSense ain't one - I do really well with it. At worst, I have some annoyances. But I'm very practical and under no illusions. So I'm a huge advocate of diversification. I'm also a longtime AdWords expert, on behalf of a few clients, and so I get a better look of the entire system from both sides than maybe most publishers do.
If you really and truly want advice and ideas, everyone is usually pretty happy to help out. If you just want rants and commiseration - okay, but we already have plenty posts for that. We're full.

Moderator note: Please keep this thread on topic.
Personal remarks will be removed without reference.
The topic is about ads not matching content. Is this a temporary technical fault on Google's part?
It is of no use to Google if the ads are off topic as they earn Google less money, in addition to the publishers losing out.

Maybe the OP is just noticing IBAs? They have nothing to do with content, right? It's a common misconception for years here on this board that changing to not show IBAs somehow does what people *think* it does. It doesn't. Could simply be a misunderstanding (again...).

Has anyone seen improvement in earning by disabling third party or interest based ads? I disabled interest based ads few months ago but Google was still showing me same ads but from third party. It seems like Google disabled interest based ads on their side but not from third party ad networks.

What I was seeing on my site, and it seems much better now, was junk ads or something. There were car ads, ads from google that were special offers, "download this buttons" and a bunch of other non-related ads. It wasn't "interest based." These had nothing to do with what I have been searching for or what I was interested in or what the site was based on. I don't know where they were coming from. It was odd. I scanned my site and my computer for viruses, but nothing. It was really weird. It seems to have stopped now. I took off the interest based ads long ago, but I don't think it was related to what I was seeing.

Watch Jónsi Perform Unreleased Song "Icicle Sleeves" on Pitchfork.tv
By Larry Fitzmaurice on June 21, 2010 at 12:00 p.m. EDT
For the latest installment of Pitchfork.tv's Cemetery Gates series, Sigur Rós main man Jónsi brought his band, some stripped-down instrumentation, and his feather-laden outfit to a chapel in Brooklyn's Green-Wood Cemetary. For the first part of the session, they performed hushed yet swelling takes on unreleased live staple "Icicle Sleeves" and the building Go cut "Kolnidur". These guys were born to perform in chapels.
Watch below, or over at Pitchfork.tv. Look for more from the Jónsi Cemetary Gates session this week on Pitchfork.tv.

Jónsi: My big gripe with being gay in Iceland is that I can't donate blood. It's so fucking stupid.
Nico Muhly: It's the same shit in America. I tried donating after 9/11 and they were asking "Have you had anal sex with a man in the last twelve months?" My jaw dropped. I was all like "FUCK YOU! You had sex with your dumb husband in the last twelve months, I presume."
Jónsi: This rule is a fucking joke. They only ask gay guys if they had anal sex. They don't care if you're a straight person and you've fucked every woman you know in the ass. That's fine.
Nico Muhly: If you one time put it in some guys pooper, you can't save someone else's life.

It also includes a four-song set recorded at a "working men's club" in the London neighborhood of Bethnal Green, with arranger Nico Muhly on piano. The Bethnal Green sessions also star a peacock meandering about. This guy likes birds.

There are also a lot of excellent photos and videos and things popping up on J贸nsi's website. My current favorite is an in-studio video of the singer mixing the new album-- which apparently includes the sound of swarming bees. It's embedded below:

Here is an example of what the NYPD felt the need to track "as a daily routine" for Police Commissioner Ray Kelly:
There was a Muslim students convention in Toronto in December 2006.
Among its speakers were a guy who founded an institute studying "the core Islamic scientists."
NYU has a Muslim Students Association. It seeks to explore the study of science in the Koran. It also hosts religious study sessions.
The author of the NYPD study Googled twelve other Muslim student associations, mostly in the tri-state area — including the one at my alma mater and the one where my mother teaches — and "did not find significant information."
This was policework to the NYPD, until 2007, as revealed by the AP. The casual "daily" surveillance by police forces of constitutionally protected behavior. If you were a Muslim and interacted in groups with other Muslims, even outside the United States, a police officer was keeping tabs on you.
I think it was my friend Adam Serwer who said the reason the Transportation Security Administration attracts so much outrage is that it's the only institution in this country that gives white people a small sample of what it's like to be Muslim in post-9/11 America. If you care about liberty in this country, this either bothers you or you think liberty is just another word for how the rich ought not to pay taxes.

Nothing works is a pretty broad symptom. What actually doesn't work?Examples. My computer can't get an IP address. (Windows calls that no internet access). My computer can't ping the router. My computer can't open the router web page. My computer can't talk to other computers on my network. My computer can't talk to the internet.
Nothing in so far as the routers that worked prior to the storm no longer connect to the internet. And computers cant connect via the router. I can login to the router via a computer and it says it is connected to the cable modem and obviously it handed out a address to the computer, but..no access to the internet from any computer plugged into the router (or wireless either) but..if a computer is plugged directly to the modem it connects perfectly. Strange indeed.I have to work, but as soon as i can do a few more tests i will.Thanks
Does your router have an IP address? What is it? Is it assigned by DHCP?Does your PC have an IP address? What is it? Is it assigned by DHCP?If your router has a valid public IP, and your PC has a valid private IP (since it can hit the router, that should be fine), try to ping a website. Can you ping a website by it's domain name? Can you ping an IP address?
Just a follow up, as i didn't have connection for a few days. Tonite it returned. But routers still wouldn't work. I tried Googles DNS servers in the routers manual DNS and it worked! (wireless also working) SO...hopefully it keeps working.PS: Googles DNS servers are188.8.131.52.8.4.4if someone else needs 'em!Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

Nike Zoom KD IV 'Year of the Dragon' – New Photos
December 26th, 2011 by Brendan Dunne | 21 comments
Shaping up to be a sneaker that just can't miss, the Nike Zoom KD IV has a pretty strong track record despite only having a handful of colorways to its name. With that being said, we'd be pretty surprised if the 2012 'Year of the Dragon' didn't fly off the shelves as quickly as its predecessors. Like the 'Nerf' and 'Weatherman' before it, this release goes heavy on the graphics-with a wavy look for the strap and lining as well as a little dragon hit floating around the swoosh on the medial side of the sneaker. Follow us after the jump for the latest look at these and stick with us for updated info on the Nike Zoom KD IV. via HoopChina
This is a nice shoe,but to me it feels like the KD colorways are copying everything the LeBron line is doing. I'm these remind me o the China's to much(i know its the same concept but try to make it different).And another one is the Weatherman's that clearly copies the Cannons.
nike is killin the signature game this year..again!
These are ill, the KD line is getting some serious heat, I'm glad to see it
Garbage pics, but the shoes are dope nonetheless. Yet another solid colorway of this shoe being released. Hopefully hype doesn't kill the release much like the Nerfs.
I hope these arent as limited as the weathermans and nerfs
I personally like all 3, nerfs, weathermans and yotds, but i have to admit, these are my favorite of the 3.
more like year of the kd. These kicks are goin off this year
Nice i would ball in them for sure . As far as wearing them i dont think i could match
KD designers woke up and realized all they needed was some interesting flashy colorways to be a big sellers like the lebrons or kobes. now they pumpin em out
Durant's are going HARD this year! Another solid colorway
put a orange clear sole and these would be even more perfect
I hope hype dont hit these like the nerfs,
When do these release?
You just don't see stuff like this from JB. I would cop if the hypebeasts dont take my size 10 >=(
i dont c the resemblance between the cannons and weathermans
Definitely! These pics dnt these justice the colors are amazing!
and a orange lace swap
china lebron 9 do this cw better
Idunno but Id call them the "Avatars"
I feel u but it ain't the hypebeast u have to worry bout. It's the frontin ass resellers...
Second what Cyborg said, fucking resellers man, killed the concords for people and hope to god they dont kill the Cement 4's

Based out of Japan, Axell Auto looks to work on a variety of complete car tuning kits with a strong focus on Toyota-branded SUVs and vans. In fact, the Nissan GT-R is the only sports car that they even dabble in, and that's probably because they know just how important the R35 GT-R is to Japanese enthusiasts. One thing is for sure though, every one of their aero kit offerings are as aggressive as can be, and their widebody GT-R is no different.
It may not be everybody's cup of tea, but this GT-R sporting a matte black outside and a completely red interior is pretty menacing to look at. We actually dig the widebody and think it was constructed well, flowing with the natural body lines of the car without looking too extreme. The rear bumper offers a ton of contrast to the relatively tame front bumper. There's vents and slits galore throughout the fenders, side skirts and bumpers, making the kit a little too busy overall. But much like the rear spoiler, a lot of this could have gone worse.
We'd like to have seen Axell Auto outfit their demo car with a much larger and more aggressive set of wheels though.

With the Tokyo Auto Salon around the corner, Japanese tuners are working and wrenching around the clock for their 2011 debuts. One of these tuners is Axell Auto, which is currently working on a widebody conversion kit for the infamous Nissan R35 GT-R. And it looks like Axell Auto is looking to claim the title of most radical GT-R in the world with the debut of the finished product.
The crazy widebody reminds us of days long gone, almost a creation that would come from Veilside's factory. The front end of the GT-R isn't bad, but the excess use of vents throughout the rest of the kit – especially the rear – is far too aggressive for our tastes.
From the Lamborghini side skirts to the cheesy 1995 Honda Civic hood venting to the obligatory LED running lights, every aspect of this kit is a thing of beauty when compared to the rear end.
We'll be sure to snap some pics of the car in person from the Tokyo Auto Salon next month.

8 October 2009 / High School Celebrates Two National Sports Stars
Her overall score of 2893 points - a personal best - has also moved her to No 7 in the UK rankings.
The competition, which tested the girls' abilities in shot putt, 75m hurdles, high jump, long jump and the 800m, took place in Bedford last week. All four of the South West team attend Truro-based schools. The team's second best scorer, Lottie Richardson - also a High School girl, finished 8th overall.
The High School girls' other two team members were Kiani Payne of Truro School and Alice Vage of Penair School. They finished 22nd and 28th respectively.
Headmistress of Truro High School, Caroline Pascoe, a former British Olympian, said: "With just one event to go the South West team was lying in third place making the 800m a nail-biting finale. When the final results were announced the girls were jubilant with 2nd place and a new South West record of 8263 points!
"Lottie and Jordanna are both outstanding sports women who work extremely hard and deserve all their success. They are both great assets to the school and excellent role models. We congratulate them and their team mates on this latest achievement."

Are Mobile Web Apps Slow?
A recent blog post from Drew Crawford has generated many comments and tweets about the relative performance of web and native apps. Drew's well-written post is notable for its thorough documentation.
So should we all pack our mobile web app work and go native? Well, no.
First, the performance of JavaScript needs to be put in perspective: it is only a subset of the performance profile of most web apps. HTML, CSS, SVG and the network also consume CPU/GPU cycles. For some web apps, the layout and rendering of HTML/CSS/SVG consume the majority of CPU cycles (it is even possible to write a game without any JavaScript code albeit a limited one.) Not only does it mean garbage collection only affects a fraction of an application's overall execution budget, but a large part of the platform can be optimized and improved for all apps. So JavaScript is only one portion of mobile web apps's code and its strengths and shortcomings alike only affect that portion.
Figure 1: A web application's CPU budget
One may argue that this does not matter: why would anyone ever want to use a language that is slower than native? Wouldn't you always want the faster option?
As Drew's article points out, productivity is also important to developers. Drew uses the example of hashmaps: while managed languages usually build those in, native apps either rely on harder-to-use versions or roll out their own. Thus a big motivation for using a language such as JavaScript is its ease of use and dynamic nature. While not perfect it remains a language that is more accessible to more people than native code. It also is the same language across many platforms and devices, while native code is inherently platform-specific. Trading off some performance (for a fraction of the application, as explained above) for broader reach is appealing for many applications.
Granted, there exist native libraries that provide similar graphical, animated or layout features to what browser engines offer (and more). However, no solution that I know of has the the flexibility and ubiquitous reach that the web platform brings to the table.
Finally, a web app is not just client code. At the very heart of the web is the concept of distribution, of content as well as code. A web app can leverage the web and distribute its computing needs. The collaborative 3D authoring application Lagoa is a shining example of that possibility, as it distributes computation-intensive work to the cloud, operations that even the most powerful client code could not handle as well. Web apps, by nature, have access to the flexibility of this powerful architecture.
Web apps are way past the hype phase and climbing up the slope of enlightenment. Articles grounded in hard data like Drew's are certainly useful. But we need to be mindful about decisions we make and consider a web application's overall context before making the jump to native, and forego the many benefits of the web architecture.
In some cases (e.g., highly computationally intensive game), native code may indeed be the appropriate answer. But in most cases, web apps demonstrate the way of the future, even though the 'puppet master' code will run slower than its native counterpart. Remember that this relative slowness is a trade-off for other important benefits, such as higher productivity and unparalleled reach.
The Web, Documented
Every great software platform needs some essential ingredients: one or more programming languages, great tools such as editors, compilers and debuggers, frameworks and libraries that make things easier, an enthusiastic community that help each other out and good documentation that helps get the most of the platform. The web platform is probably the biggest, fastest growing and most ubiquitous platform in the (short) history of computing. And while it has many of these essential elements, there is one that was still lacking: official documentation.
Think about what you do when you have a question about HTML, CSS or JavaScript. There are probably a few sites you trust, a few printed books you keep close at hand, if you're old-fashioned, but more times than not you just search what's out there and see what comes up. It could be a well maintained, up to date, credible source, or it could be articles or blog posts that are out of date or just plain wrong.
And the web platform is not static! The browsers keep evolving and implement new functionality, specs keep getting updated, and new specs get proposed and implemented. Best practices evolve as well.
Since there's no single, definitive resource to go to, there's no way to know for sure, except through trial and error.
All of that is changing today. The W3C – in collaboration with Adobe, Apple, Facebook, Google, HP, Microsoft, Mozilla, Nokia, and Opera – is announcing the alpha release of Web Platform Docs, a new web destination that will become the definitive resource for all open web technologies. You can find the W3C press release here. The Web Platform Documentation (WPD) will include:
- API documentation
- Information on browser compatibility
- Examples
- Status of specifications
And the WPD project will be open and community driven, just like the web. WPD is built on top of MediaWiki, the same engine that powers Wikipedia — which means that anyone can contribute. The initial content is being provided by many of the stewards listed above, but anyone with knowledge, examples, snippets or other relevant information is welcomed and encouraged to contribute.
The stewards have been working incredibly hard on this project for a bit over a year, and I want to congratulate them on the launch today. We are very proud to be participating in this effort. This is the culmination of the effort to build this infrastructure, but in many ways this is also a first step. It is now up to the web community to help create and maintain the most comprehensive and authoritative reference for web technologies. So, go check it out and start contributing. Document the web!

Loved the basement transformation with the slide down the stairs. Totally charming. The card table didn't look like it was scaled to the room tho. Other than that, pretty nice!
Last night's beach condo? OMG, I don't think I could stand more than a couple of minutes in those rooms without coming down with a serious case of negative afterimage. It was too much. Yeah, I know they like to push the envelope but even so, it was over the top.
No, just NO. Don't do that.
LOVED the slide down the stairs - and so did the owners!! Great craft room for the kids. Carpet - not so much.

Matawalu: Glasgow will be one of the best
Former Fiji Sevens star Nikola Matawalu is encouraging fans to head to Scotstoun Stadium this weekend for the penultimate round of the HSBC Sevens World Series.
Matawalu impressed for Fiji Sevens over the past two seasons, and scored a decisive try for Fiji in their Plate victory over Samoa in the 2011 Edinburgh Sevens.
While many Fijians would have liked the services of Matawalu this weekend, his only appearance at Scotstoun will be on Saturday as a spectator.
Having also represented the Fiji U20 side and earning a call up to the senior side, Matawalu signed for, and became a fans' favourite of, the Glasgow Warriors, who play their home matches at the home of this weekend's Emirates Airline Glasgow Sevens.
"It'll be a very exciting tournament where awesome big teams will come, like Australia and New Zealand, and it'll be the best tournament for families to come and watch.
"Glasgow is one of the main tournaments of the series because teams are usually fighting for places.
"Fijians can do many things in rugby, unbelievable things and there are a lot of good players who will play for them this week. There will be a lot of good action.
"We [Glasgow Warriors] are planning on coming to the sevens after the Connacht game for a parade round the stadium on Saturday lunch time."
Tickets for the Emirates Airline Glasgow Sevens tournament, the eighth leg of the HSBC Sevens World Series, are on sale now from £15 per day.
All concessions are at half the equivalent adult price. Tickets will be sold for particular stands and designated days, with two-day 'weekend' tickets also available. Buy your tickets now.
Tickets can also be purchased at Scotstoun Stadium and Scotstoun Leisure Centre and the SECC near Glasgow's city centre or through their booking site www.ticketsoup.com.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have separated ... this according to In Touch Weekly.
Will and Jada have been married for 13 years and have two extremely famous children together -- Jaden and Willow.
Will has another son, Trey, from a previous marriage.
TMZ placed a call to Jada's rep, Karynne Tencer, who told us ... "What? In Touch said that? I know nothing about this ... Lord. I'm going back to bed."
Curious reaction.
Does this mean that Will is set to make an "announcement" that he is GAY??? (something we already know)!!!
I don't believe any breaking news from In Touch weekly. That being said, if all the news floating around for the last few years is true, they are both bisexual or gay, and it's always a sure sign of trouble when a person is constantly talking about how great their relationship is or how good the sex is, which is what Jada talks about every single time she is interviewed. I guess Tom and Katie are next, then Will and Tom can be together. LOL
I call BS!
A hollywood divorce..that's a shocker! I think Jaden is talented loved him in the movie with his father. But Willow..absolutely no talent,everytime I've seen her she seems like a spoiled brat.
sad I hope its not true. Why don't you leave the comments about the kiddies to yourself !
Doesn't this seem sortof strange considering this is coming up just a short time after Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez split? They(Jada and Marc) have a very "close" relationship together on her show, Hawthorne and it got very steamy recently. Coincidence? I think not! ;)
LOL ..extremely famous kids.........
Hell No. " > < "
Noooo! Not those two! They are normal! C'mon guys, work it out. I remember when they're babysitter called during the Academy Awards about one of the kids (when they were really little) having a really high fever and they actually left the Oscars and I thought, man, those two have their priorities right.
LIARS! Lol!
I'm glad. Will can do WAY BETTER! Trade up Will. SHe looks like an angry black woman! Good riddens.
Will always seems so nice and down to earth. Jada and those bratty kids...too annoying. They come across like they are better then everyone and we should kiss there butts. Meanwhile we only put up with them because we like Will. Best of luck to Will.
All this from In Touch? Has it been actually verified? That mag is not known for printing the truth.
Did you see their interview on Oprah?
The single most obnoxious interview I have ever witnessed.
Jada seems like a crazy person, and Will seems brainwashed.
This is not surprising...
betting Marc Anthony is the reason jmo

I know we are an NFL site, but when I see a hit like this I get excited.
She got knocked the BLEEP out!!
I can't wait for the NFL season to start. I would rather see the NFL guys making these hits, but in the down time, I will get whatever football I can get. I have seen a few of these lingerie league hits and some of them can lay the smack down.
Can't wait for football. We are almost there. Inching our way closer and closer everyday.

Sometimes, when a tax sale purchaser gives notice of the sale to another creditor which holds a lien, that creditor will pay off the tax sale purchaser, to avoid having their lien "wiped out" by barment.
What this does is take the tax sale purchaser our of the equation, and restores title to the property in the owner.
However, the creditor who redeems is said to then have a "super-lien" for the amount that they redeemed.
The Georgia Supreme Court has held:
If a creditor of the original taxpayer redeems the property, the amount paid by the redeeming creditor becomes a first lien on the property. The redeeming creditor then has first priority to repayment-a "super-lien" for the redemption price-and may proceed to foreclose against the property based upon that lien.
The redeeming creditor may satisfy some or all of the super-lien from any excess funds from the tax sale which are still being held by the Sheriff. See Wester v. United Capital Fin. of Atlanta, LLC, 282 Ga. App. 392, 394, 638 S.E.2d 779, 781 (2006).
Or, the creditor can foreclose their super-lien, taking ownership from the owner, and wiping out other lien holders' interests. See Nat'l Tax Funding, L.P., supra.
An owner should not assume they will necessarily have 12 months in order to avoid losing their property. A lien-creditor can redeem from the tax sale purchaser at any time, even 1 day after the tax sale, and then immediately seek to foreclose their super-lien. The 12-month barment rules do not apply in this context. Thus, in as little as 1-2 months, the owner might lose their property for good.
Therefore, it is important to respond promptly, and consult a competent tax sale attorney.
The full text of the Nat'l Tax Funding, L.P. v. Harpagon Co., LLC decision follows:
Read more on Creditor who redeems obtains "super-lien"…
Filed under Redemption by on Sep 15th, 2013.
After purchasing property at a tax sale, the purchaser may seek to bar the owner from being able redeem the property.
Generally, the tax sale purchaser must send a written notice to the owner in the form provided by O.C.G.A. 48-4-46.
There is a provision for giving this written notice by "publication," which means running an advertisement in the public notices section of the newspaper.
However, as a matter of fairness (and Constitutional due process), it is often not sufficient to rely solely upon publishing notices in a newspaper, because it is argued that such a notice is unlikely to actually inform the owner that their right to redeem is being barred. This makes sense. Do you know anyone who regularly reads the public notices section of a newspaper, with all of its tiny type? Indeed, fewer and fewer people subscribe to a newspaper at all any more.
With regards to a barment notice specifically, the Georgia Supreme Court has held that "If the name and address of an interested party can be reasonably ascertained, notice of a tax sale by publication does not meet the requirements of due process." Hamilton v. Renewed Hope, Inc., 277 Ga. 465, 466, 589 S.E.2d 81, 83 (2003). It is not necessary that actual notice be received by the owner, but such notice should be attempted using "reasonable diligence." Id.
What is the "reasonable diligence" required in your case? This will depend upon upon the situation, so it is advisable to consult a competent attorney to provide advice regarding your particular circumstances.
A full copy of this Court decision follows:
Read more on Barment Notice by publication alone is generally insufficient…
Filed under Barment by on Sep 1st, 2013.
Purchasers at tax sales are often worried about whether issues out of their control can negatively impact their investment.
For example, what if the owner claims that they received insufficient notice in advance of sale, or if proper notice simply cannot be proven later?
Generally speaking, the tax sale purchaser can rest easy on this issue.
The Georgia Supreme Court has held that "the rule in this state that defects in following the notice provisions of the tax sale statute may give an injured party a claim for damages, but will not render the tax sale or the deed therefrom void." Davis v. Harpagon Co., LLC, 281 Ga. 250, 252, 637 S.E.2d 1, 3 (2006).
Of course, every situation is unique, so you should consult an attorney about your case.

Ga Court of Appeals Affirms Injunction Requiring Dock on Lake Lanier Be Moved To Permit Neighbor To Seek Dock Permit
The Georgia Court of Appeals, in the case of Dillon v. Reid, held that a Georgia trial court is not preempted from issuing an injunction to require a lot owner to move a dock, although the Corps of Engineers manages the shoreline of Lake Lanier and issues dock permits.
In this case, Danny Reid sued his neighbors, Michael and Jennifer Dillon. Reid wanted to seek a permit for a dock. But, because his neighbors on the left and right (respectively, the Dillons, and the owner of Lot 10) had placed their docks too close together, Reid would not be eligible. So Reid sued the Dillons, seeking an injunction requiring that the Dillons move their dock at least 132 feet away from the dock on Lot 10. If an injunction did not issue quickly, then Reid would miss the window of opportunity to apply for a dock permit.
Forsyth Superior Court Judge Brenda S. Weaver held an evidentiary hearing, and found that the placement of the Dillons' dock was in violation of an earlier Sale Agreement, found that Reid was a third party beneficiary of the Sale Agreement, and ordered that the Dillons move their dock.

Ga.App.: To Enforce Materialman's Lien, Notice to Contractor Required Despite Late-Filed Notice of Commencement
In the case of Southeast Culvert Inc. v. Hardin Bros. LLC, the Georgia Court of Appeals held that, although Hardin filed its Notice of Commencement more than 15 days of commencing work [see OCGA 44-14-361.5(b)], the timely filing of this Notice was not a condition to Southeast Culvert Inc.'s obligation to provide a Notice to Contractor.
Additionally, the Court held that there was no issue as to whether the site address listed on the Notice of Commencement was incorrect or fatally deficient. The Notice of Commencement listed a property address of 795 Union Hill Road, which was corroborated by two affidavits which attested that this was the correct property address. The mere fact that two pre-construction forms listed an address of 905 Union Hill Road did not create an issue, especially where Southwest did not deliver materials to a different location.
Accordingly, when Southeast sought to foreclose on their materialman's lien, the Court of Appeals held that summary judgment in favor of Hardin was demanded.

Excuse me, what?
sketchy meme! just finished putting her profile in and im just working on others profiles ahh //
Oh me oh my ♡♡ what a wonderful day!
have i ever posted queer lords ref? well here we go
Oookay, so this is Serena!
Serena's a retired fighter. Her battling days came to a halt when an electric Pokémon stunned her with Thunder! During her final fight, she got a bit overzealous. Believing that she could stand a chance against an electric type, she started the battle with a rain dance, as usual, but seemed to forget that the move Thunder is 100% accurate in the rain! After the battle, she spent weeks in the hospital in recovery, and then months in physiotherapy.
Serena often spends her days living in the past, remembering travelling and taking place in tournaments, the times that she felt alive. She'll tell people her experiences, hoping to enchant others. Still in physiotherapy, For now, Serena lives a boring day to day to life without much thrill, and because of that, she's in a depressive slump. One day, she hopes to fight again.
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
pirate man returns
I'm slowly drifting into slumber
Cause I have lost the force to fight
It's like a cold hand on my shoulder
I'll see you on the other side,

You're a smart, savvy marketer with a killer brand and a large fan following. And yet, the engagement on your page is far from ideal.
It's unfortunate, but it happens. The truth is: your fans are just not that into you. Here's why.
1. Branded Imagery
As content marketing becomes a core focus in the industry, more and more brands are making the mistake of creating overly branded content. We understand that you have brand guidelines, but your posts are screaming advertising, not organic engagement. If the photos you share are framed in your brand colors and there's a logo planted in the lower right hand corner of every single one, it is more than likely your fans will not be sharing your photos.
2. Your Product Review in [Insert name of media outlet]
It's awesome that your PR team secured a highly coveted review in one of the top news outlets. Congrats to them on a job well done. That being said, your fans just hid your posts from appearing in their Newsfeed. If you want to share a review, find a way to do so in a modest and/or conversational manner. Are you pee-your-pants excited? Let them know. Want to know what they like best? Ask them. Trust me, your content will go further if you humanize your brand.
3. Post Frequency
Ten times a day? Ten times a month? It's probably time to rethink how often you're posting. You want to appear in your fans' feeds enough that you stay top of mind, but not enough that they get tired of seeing you. Best advice for doing so? Experiment. Post compelling content once per day for one week and then twice per day during the following week. Keep posting times consistent so you can properly evaluate the effectiveness of your trials. Once you've found your sweet spot, try the same experiment with the times that you post. You won't be sorry.
4. Responsiveness
You probably know what I'm going to say, but I'm going to have to say it anyway. Your fans are looking to converse with you. If you're not responding to their comments or you're using generic "thank you" messaging after every one of their posts, you're missing the point. You've spent your whole life communicating–with your boss, your grandmother, your friends, etc. You've already got the skills, so use them!
If you're following what I'm saying, but want to see a few examples of brands that are doing it right, check these guys out:

Google's integration with AdMob, its mobile ad network, is now more robust with the availability of AdMob network inventory through the AdWords platform. The move brings to fruition promises of the AdMob acquisition, which was approved by the Federal Trade Commission more than two years ago.
In a blog post, Jonathan Alferness, Google director of product management, mobile, noted that along with enabling mobile app campaigns through the AdWords system, advertisers will also be able to target specific types of smartphone or tablet device models or manufacturer brands.
Advertisers can target by mobile app categories such as business, education, and finance. In the near future the company plans to "provide an estimate on the number of devices reached and impressions targeted given your selections," according to the post.
The bulk of the inventory in AdMob's network is in applications; Google said AdMob reaches 350 million mobile devices across 300,000 mobile apps.
One of the first steps toward integration of the AdMob platform with AdWords, in 2010, involved Google allowing app publishers to run AdSense ads in otherwise unsold inventory.
According to recent data from the Interactive Advertising Bureau and HIS Screen Digest, the global mobile ad market reached $5.3 billion in 2011. North America accounted for 31.4 percent of the market's ad revenue.
Google believes the extended platform integration will boost demand for mobile advertising. In its quest to dominate cross media marketing through simpler buying and management tools, Google this week also unveiled a more connected DoubleClick in the form of DoubleClick Digital Marketing. The platform combines ad and bid management with search advertising, rich media, and analytics.

Great LezBritain: "Lip Service" Recap – Episode Three
Tess invites Lou round for sexy times but Lou Foster has something else on. She says she's free later that day and Tess forgoes her night of scrabble with Ed for the chance of a second bout of rimming. Tess, because she is so very empathetic, suspects Lou is feeling a bit over-lesbianed and tells her all will be fine.
Frankie lies on the sofa twiddling the "FG" key ring, her mind in a tangent over the bits and pieces of the "who the eff is Annie Cawthorne?" puzzle. Jay walks in to be told Becky is asleep and not to be disturbed. Frankie opens her dark heart and gives him a bit of best-friend buttering up, and then tells him he's about to help her out.
Cat is amazed to find Tess hoovering their flat – all in honour of Lou Foster's second attempt at coming over, but not coming out.
Tess: Today she kissed me in public, this is like definitely happening, she is actually my girlfriend!!
Cat: O.M.G.
Tess: Don't take this piss, I'm allowed to be all girly. I spent my teens fake screaming for spotty boys and this one is 100% genuine.
Tess then drops in that she's moving out to live with Frankie.
Cat pretends she's fine with this news but when Tess asks if she feels weird, she replies very weirdly by saying "no" five times, which tells us she does indeed feel weird about her best friend and the woman that broke her heart moving in together. She heads off, most likely to whip on some marigolds and disinfect the toilet.
Frankie and Jay are back at "Annie Cawthorne's" rough estate and Jay has never looked quite so uncomfortably middle-class. The Glaswegian Ussain Bolt appears and, once again, is not keen on engaging with her, but before he tries to break his personal best, Frankie spits out some words.
Frankie: Hey, wait. I just want to talk to you for a minute, just a few questions.
Glaswegian Ussain Bolt: Who are you, police or something? What the f–k do you want?
Frankie: Something was sent here – a photo album, pictures of me as a kid – to Annie Cawthorne. Do you know her?
Bolt: No. Never heard of her.
This fella looks decidedly shifty, and though he denies knowing anything that Frankie is rabbiting on about, he invites them into the flat to smoke some weed. Frankie snaps this offering up and Jay follows, not best pleased at the prospect of having to dirty his good Armani trousers on a working class sofa.

Update- Looks like the A's won the Jim Johnson Sweepstakes. The Dodgers bowed out early. Probably for the best anyways. Maybe they can get the deal done with the beard instead. Hopefully. Man the offseason is weird. —-
Finally some news, but it comes out of nowhere and as somewhat of a surprise. Apparently The Orioles are trying to trade right handed closer Jim Johnson, and guess which team is in the hunt for his services? You guessed it the Dodgers. The name comes as a surprise but the part of the Dodgers looking for an extra reliever doesn't. it's likely Brian Wilson will not be returning in 2014, and Johnson would be a viable candidate to replace him. The one big question is, if the Dodgers do trade for him, would he be joining the club as a set-up man? Or would the club push Kenley Jansen out of the closer role again?
Sources: #Orioles trying hard to trade Jim Johnson, #Dodgers in mix. Johnson projected to earn more than $10M in arbitration.
— Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) December 2, 2013
I would be horribly against moving Jansen out of closer role ever again. The Dodgers tried that again last season by putting Brandon League in that role and it was an utter failure. The Dodgers have tried that for the past two seasons and have had it blow up in their faces every time. Even though Jim Johnson is a much better pitcher than League is by leaps and bounds, heck Johnson and League aren't even in the same universe, I would still be against usurping Jansen.
Now that doesn't mean I would be against the idea of trading for Johnson, who has been a pretty good closer over the past couple of years. Johnson is an eight-year MLB veteran who was drafted by the Orioles in the fifth round of the 2001 amateur draft, and has spent his entire career in Baltimore. Johnson has posted a career 3.11 ERA and 122 saves since his MLB debut in 2006. The former all-star has had two consecutive seasons of 50+ saves, and three consecutive seasons of a sub 3.00 ERA. Last season he pitched in 74 games, and posted a 2.94 ERA, with a 7.2 Whiff per nine rate, and a 2.6 BB/9 rate in 70.1 innings pitched.
Johnson saved 50 games last season leading the American League, and tying for the Major League lead. The right hander also saved 51 games in 2012. While he doesn't have huge strikeout stuff, he has been an effective ground ball pitcher. He's not great but pretty good.
According to Ken Rosenthal Johnson is projected to earn 10.8 million dollars in arbitration and the Orioles are looking to shed some salary. Supposedly the Orioles are severely limited by their budgetary restraints. Another question would be who would the Dodgers be willing to trade, and what are the Orioles looking to get back?
I don't really have a problem with trading for Johnson, as long as the price is right. if the Dodgers want to use him for the seventh or eighth innings then that's fine. But please do not, I repeat do not remove Jansen from the closer role ever again.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Johnson is third year arbitration eligible, and made 6.5 million dollars last season. We'll keep you apprised as this situation unfolds.

One of the benefits to living here, is that I get to spend time in historic Doylestown Borough. So what does it have to offer? It is an area with strong cultural interests. For example, you could visit the Mercer & Fonthill Museums, which offers a unique perspective on American craftsmanship in a fabulous 5 story masonry "castle." Or perhaps the Michener Museum,, which was built incorporating the 19th century structure of the old stone Bucks County jail, offers an internationally renowned art collection as well as a wing dedicated to Bucks County artists. And then there is The County Theatre. which offers many big studio films as well as independent works in its renovated "art deco" cinema on East State Street.
There is much to do in Doylestown Borough and this is just a taste of what's here. Public transportation is available as well as the local Doylestown Train Station. If you are considering moving here, please contact me or visit my website at www.FrankDolski.Com. You can also stop by and visit some of the places that I mentioned. Dining is plentiful as well as shopping. In any case, make it a point to visit. You will not be disappointed!
