Google Wave is a new web application for real-time communication and collaboration, designed to help you get things done with groups of people. Each wave is a live shared space on the web where people can work together with text, images, maps and more! Google Wave can be extended using gadgets and robots. The range of applications and gadgets offer more options, such as, collaborative maps and a Twitter tool. Are you surfing the Google Wave?

What is a wave?

A wave is equal parts conversation and document. People can communicate and work together with richly formatted text, photos, videos, maps, and more.

A wave is shared. Any participant can reply anywhere in the message, edit the content and add participants at any point in the process. Then playback lets anyone rewind the wave to see who said what and when.

A wave is live. With live transmission as you type, participants on a wave can have faster conversations, see edits and interact with extensions in real-time.

Page Rank Update

Posted on by

On December 20, 2010 I decided to purchase a domain and domain mapping for this blog.  I did so knowing that the authority, backlinks and PageRank earned by the root blog at wordpress.com belonged to that blog , and that the new domain would have to start from being “unranked” and climb the ladder again.  I assumed from past experience that it would take 4 – 6 months before my new domain earned a PageRank but I was wrong.

Due to the support of my readers and subscribers who updated their links to the new domain and all of those who chose to backlink to my posts I have an announcement to make.  The PageRank of this blog is now 5/10.

Thanks you all so much for your support, comments, links and best wishes. I appreciate them very much.  :)

Here are the reports:

Link popularity for onecoolsitebloggingtips.com
Domain age? – 3 months 15 days

Handle Online Attacks Effectively

Posted on by

couple fighting A personal attack is committed when a person substitutes abusive remarks for evidence when attacking another person’s claim or claims. This line of “reasoning” is fallacious because the attack is directed at the person making the claim and not the claim itself.

If you’ve been  personally attacked online my advice is to consider failing to engage or delaying engagement.  If you must respond,  then do so calmly.  Take the time to  demonstrate there is no merit to statements made and others will think better of you for not losing your cool.

Hopefully you will never need have to deal with a serious attack  but if you do  and want to see it  removed, you need to contact whoever controls that content. Most often, this means that you need to contact the author and/or webmaster of the page and ask them to take down the content in question.
