Top article submission directories : under utilized SEO tool
One important and less used website promotion tool is incoming links via submissions in article directories.
When I say submission, it DOES NOT mean you should stuff anything in the world as article to any site. Before submitting to any website / directory/ article collection source, check the relevance of category, reputation of the site and the quality of your content.
If you think you are just submitting with eyes closed, that will do more harm than help, as same articles on 100's of sites can place it in supplementary results and there is nothing new to offer to the user.
No doubt, quality articles need promotion,so its a tight rope walk for the search engine optimizers (SEO's) and search marketers to decide on a case to case basis.

Verizon Vs. Cybersquatters : Intellectual Property Case
Domain name booking and cyber-squatting is a creating a new legal problem as the web has crossed any country's limit.
Keeping the legal control over the un-lawful activities over the web, most of the countries are modifying the IT laws including India, US and the European union.
Here is a recent IPR (intellectual Property Rights) case of domain name booking by cybersquatters against the popular telecom service Verizon and the trademarks registered by the company.
Verizon (NYSE: VZ) is taking it to cybersquatters, and the telecom said it has been awarded $33.2 million from a company trying to intentionally confuse Web users.
The ruling, which the telecom said is the largest-ever cybersquatting judgment, said OnlineNIC "unlawfully registered at least 663 domain names that were either identical or confusingly similar to Verizon's trademarks." The telecom was awarded $50,000 per domain name, which included the likes of iphonefromverizon.com and treoverizon.com.
OnlineNIC is a San Francisco-based domain registrar, and no representatives showed up to court. The company also faces similar lawsuits from Microsoft and Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO)

I would suggest to check the brand names and trademarks before you register a domain and avoid committing such activities.

Serious Security flaw in Microsoft IE 7
So far Firefox (FF) is considered as a secure browser, here is one more feather in the cap of FF.
As per wikipedia, here is a market share comparison among web browsers -
Internet Explorer: 70.72%
Firefox: 20.27%
Safari: 6.77%
Chrome: 0.78%
Opera: 0.73%
Netscape: 0.48%
Other: 0.24%
Adding to the security woes, CNN reports a serious vulnerability in Microsoft IE.
Here is the news:
NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Users of Microsoft Corp.'s (MSFT) Internet Explorer Web browser could be open to attacks from criminals hoping to glean passwords and financial information as the software giant works to fix a security flaw.
"Microsoft is continuing its investigation of public reports of attacks against a new vulnerability in Internet Explorer," said the company in a release on its Web site.
The attack on Internet Explorer differs from many in the past that were successful only when users downloaded attachments that could exploit security cracks in the browser. In this case, victims' computers could be taken over simply by going to an infected Web site.
"This type of attack has been happening for a while, what's new is the unpatched IE tips off and draws attention that this sort of attack is working," said Cross Research analyst Richard Williams. "Ordinarily, by the time the news hits, the flaw has been fixed."
Microsoft said it is only aware of attacks on the Windows Internet Explorer 7 version of the browser, though all versions of the world's most popular program for surfing the Web are potentially vulnerable.

Top Google search keywords this month!
Google has just published the top keywords for the month. Interesting to see that top searches on google are prominently search engines and email providers. This leads to conclude that in India, internet is still used for search and email purpose for most of it.
The rising searches include web 2.0 awarness of video chat and messaging. Considering the recent terror attack on Mumbai , news websites are mostly searched for the updates and chat / messengers to convey and discuss things.
When checked for the SEO ( Search Engine Optimization) term awarness, there is still a lot of scope. In practical many people working in IT companies under technology and consulting dont know the meaning and the profile. So dont be surprised if someone compares an SEO with the CEO of a company ;)
When it comes to check the regional interest ( search about the search engine keyword)
Delhi tops the list followed by Tamilnadu and Maharashtra before the state of IT capital Bangalore.
concluding to all the searches in India, we can say that there is still a lot of scope for search, search result refinement and search experience to the end user which will be improving each day as the search engines are getting 'smart' with search trends and records.
A search engine optimizer (SEO) has a moral responsibility to help quality website get the desired value and avoid any black hat techniques to stuff the search results.
