Poogle vs. GGG

1/24/2008

The anti-matter cloud hit this morning. Conrad Hoss checked his blog, and saw his Poogle page rank was 0/10, after being a lofty 2/10 before he went to sleep.

He logged on to GGG -- all his opportunities had dried up.

The war for advertising dollars had reached his computer screen.

Conrad immediately contacted his personal Secretary of Defense -- Admiral DeCarlo. They discussed this latest development and drew the following conclusions:
  • Poogle's dependancy on advertising revenue was their Achille's heel.
  • Poogle was in an odd situation. If they bought GGG, they would have to allow page ranks for GGG blogs, while blocking out GGG's competition from the search engine. That would definitely be a lawsuit. However, by following their present course, they have revealed their weakness.
  • Poogle's main search competitors, Hayoo, Ax, and SNM, should embrace GGG.
  • Poogle was alienating stay-at-home moms and people looking for a second source of income.
  • Poogle ads were not nearly as effective in bringing in revenue for individual blogs.
  • GGG plans to carry on without Poogle. However, it already appears that advertising dollars are drying up, and that the owner of GGG, Ikae, was planning a social networking site to replace GGG.
Conrad and Admiral DeCarlo decided to wait and see ... let fate decide, for now....
