Google Adwords Displaying Products
Friday, July 17th, 2009
Greetings All,
I know that this has been in testing since 2007 but I’ve been seeing it more & more often recently.

I’m feeling in a helpful mood tonight, so here’s the answer to another question that’s popped up a couple of times recently.

WPTouch – iPhone and iPod Touch plugin
Sunday, January 4th, 2009

That’s quite impressive given that I have no pagerank & pretty much no backlinks! Now if only they had an affiliate scheme….
