JavaScript deserves much more respect !
Just recently web developers are starting to realize the strength of this language, thanks to the new term Asynchronous XMLHttp has received, AJAX.
It’s about time people realize the power of JS as a client-side scripting tool, to create marvelous user interfaces, and even server-side to people who are still using Classic ASP. Using JS instead of VBScript as a server-side scripting language under ASP is something nobody talks about. But it is much more powerful than VBScript. Scripting.Dictionary sucks! :)

- Google Co-op is a way for users to help Google improve search. It lets people and organizations label web pages and create specialized links related to their unique expertise. Whether it’s information about a hobby, a profession, or an unusual interest, everyone can contribute to making Google search more relevant and useful for the entire community.
- Google Desktop 4 gives you another way to improve search, by personalizing your desktop. New “Google Gadgets” deliver an array of information–ranging from games and media players to weather updates and news–straight to your desktop.
- Google Notebook (which they will be launching next week) is a personal browser tool that lets you clip text, images, and links from the pages you’re searching, save clippings to an online notebook, and then share notebooks with others.
- Google Trends builds on the idea behind the Google Zeitgeist, allowing you to sort through several years of Google search queries from around the world to get a general idea of everything from user preferences on ice-cream flavors to the relative popularity of politicians in their respective cities or countries.

Very interesting post in the Google blog, by Dr. Taraneh Razavi, M.D., Staff Doctor at Google. Razavi talks about overuse syndromes and repetitive stress injury:
The damage sustained from RSI is due to structural changes in the muscle fiber as well as due to decreased blood flow. Nerves can also be involved. The immobile tissue and surrounding inflammation compress the nerve which can cause numbness or tingling and eventually weakness if the nerve is damaged severely.
