Bucket tests and experimental products are one thing. But to mess with the real Google search is serious stuff. Why did they do it?
Google’s overall search share has grown substantially this year (and all other years since it went live). Their share of search advertising dollars is likely even higher.
The changes Google made to search today certainly make it more interactive and social.
Like many Googlers, we're fascinated by trends in online search queries. Whether you're interested in U.S. elections, today's hot trends, or each year's Zeitgeist, patterns in Google search queries can be very informative. Last year, a small team of software engineers began to explore if we could go beyond simple trends and accurately model real-world phenomena using patterns in search queries.
Don't ask... but I've managed to compress the partition of my HD with my Vista install on (by checking the little box on the HD properties in Vista). So now whenever I try and boot up I get an error message saying
"BOOTMGR Compressed, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"
I've already tried the stuff a google search brings up ie:
Win Vista DVD > Command Prompt>
C:
expand bootmgr temp
attrib bootmgr -s -r -h
del bootmgr
ren temp bootmgr
attrib bootmgr -a +s +r +h
But I still get the error after i've done that. I've tried doing that for every archived file in the C: root directory and that still doesn't help. I've downloaded Hirens Boot CD and tried a load of tools on there (including zeroing my MBR and then getting windows vista to fix it with its auto-repair feature) and i still get the same message!
Hello, I seem to be having this issue across all computers on my home network, two XP Pro machines and one Vista Home Premium machine, the one I am currently using for myself. My problem is that whenever I try to run a Google search or even type an...
Anyone seen this error with Vista? I was just copying files between folders on my new Vista laptop, and this popped up a number of times. I can continue by using the Try Again, but it's a royal PITA. A Google search seems to indicate it's...
It seems MS left out the internal fax option in Vista--and my Winfax Pro 10 is not Vista compatible---Google search didn't find anything--does anyone know of any compatible software for faxing?
Many thanks--

Hello, this is my first post here. I did a google search on the bootmgr and haven't found much on my problem. I just installed vista, and the install being new wasn't too sure about things. I wanted to format my C drive, and freshly install Vista. I...

Keep the power of Google search close at hand.
