Google your sorry isn't good enough

Google your sorry isn't good enough

I can do everything but view my blog!

Google

Might have to clear and reinstall, John. That's what I did.

James: I am on a friend's computer at the moment. Do you mean with the Windows XP disc?

Hi John, if you are going to reinstall, why not use Scroogle instead?

Scroogle is a Google scraper.
It gives you all the Google results minus all the adverts which are scraped off.

In addition, there are no search term records, no tracking cookies and the access log is deleted after 24 hours.

You can also use Yahoo scraper on the same site.

My home page looks like this :

www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/scraper.htm

The problem is that the 'everlasting' Google cookie allows them to control all your emails etc as well as tracking you all over the net.
Don't make it too easy for them.

see ya

I had the same problem yesterday, couldn't access any "blogspot" blogs. It must have been something to do with Karoo.

jemmy hope: A friend wondered if that was the case, however, when I checked the Karoo website it stated the status was ok. Porkies? Main thing it's alright now.
