Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / April 2007OT, Google better pull-up! will they crash?
For about a week now, google is waaay behind on getting peoples posts into the mix. As it stands right now.. if you post through google, it's going to be days before you actually see the post... I use several other services to get a post through... I'm waiting on google to catch up. However! Could this be the beginning of a long slow melt-down? I have long since predicted that Google is going to crash (at some point) why? because they got to big to quick... it's like putting too much air into a balloon... success must have a place to go... Will they pull out of this one? To their credit, google is able to take each post and propagate it to other usenet servers. So posts are making it to usenet, just not their own db. > For about a week now, google is waaay behind on getting peoples posts > into the mix.

Probably the best thing that could happen to newsgroups would be for Google to go away since 99.9% of spam originates from Google.

My advice would be to get a real newsreader and either use your ISP's feed, or a free server like aioe.cjb.net  SignatureRemove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ ____ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / __ )____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ / __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_____/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms > In news:64OdnXZK3P9ZAq3bnZ2dnUVZ_v-dnZ2d@comcast.com the killer robot > George <george@nospam.invalid> grabbed the controls of the spaceship [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > My advice would be to get a real newsreader and either use your ISP's > feed, or a free server like aioe.cjb.net we should also start using alternative search engines. i've been comparing results between google and ask. ask works just as well so far. > we should also start using alternative search engines. i've been comparing > results between google and ask. ask works just as well so far.

I always use Search.MSN as my first choice. With it's simple use of symbols like ""+- I can zero in on what I'm looking for real quick.

Why is everyone crossposting to rec.pets.cats.health+behav rec.food.cooking? >> In news:wpkmuyzqew6n$.1r42uz6ezi09v.dlg@40tude.net the killer robot BobF >> <rNfOrSePeAzMe@charter.net> grabbed the controls of the spaceship [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Why is everyone crossposting to rec.pets.cats.health+behav > rec.food.cooking? Because lots of people post through or search with Google? There are actually times when cross posting is appropriate.

LOL! That's BS and you know it. I'm not a google groups fan either, but get real.

That's BS and you know it. I'm not a google groups fan either, > but get real. Just look at the headers on almost any Usenet spam and check where it originates. Then add in all of the additional "blogspot" spam. Google encourages users of their "blogspot" to get click revenue. >>Probably the best thing that could happen to newsgroups would be for >>Google to go away since 99.9% of spam originates from Google. > > LOL!

I would have said 95%, just so I didn't seem quite as dramatic. -sw > For about a week now, google is waaay behind on getting peoples posts > into the mix. Just for starters google sucks. I think we should get the hell out of Iraq and invade GOOGLE before it is too late.

Wondered what was going on with them, I am pretty disgusted with them and am thinking of changing to a real news reader. I know this has been addressed, but di not pay attention.

FYI: Individual.net is your news provider, OE is your newsreader.

Aside from providing an excellent service, they are politically correct, hosting SourceForge open source downloads etc. Think Pol Pot for Microsoft, Idi Amin for Google, Mahatma Ghandi for Easynews. Charlie >Wondered what was going on with them, I am pretty disgusted with them >and am thinking of changing to a real news reader. I hope you do! I am not fond of the Google interface.... especially the newest version. If you use a PC, Agent used to be what I recommended... but they have gotten too big for their britches too. >I know this has >been addressed, but di not pay attention. Any ideas? \ Nope. I use Agent 2.0 - which isn't found easily anymore. SignatureSee return address to reply by email > For about a week now, google is waaay behind on getting peoples posts > into the mix. I've just noticed it in the last two days. Before that, speed of lightning (welll, ALmost) posting. Maybe the onslaught of spam has slowed things down? I also notice sane posters leaving in droves and heading off to moderated groups. > > For about a week now, google is waaay behind on getting peoples posts > > into the mix.

A year ago you had to wait over 8 hours on a regular basis for a message that was posted via google or any other source to appear there. It got fast, people got used to it and now that they are having trouble (which I haven't noticed) people are complaining. Grow up and get a real news reader. > I also notice sane posters leaving in droves and heading off to >moderated groups. Moderated groups are for sissies.
