Why are they all trending down?

Neat. So tempted...

Well, consuming straight nicotine is a brand new phenom, and science is racing to catch up. Give it 10 years for any definitive science to be peer reviewed, confirmed, and then generally accepted. Take a look at things like this: http://www.webmd.com/cancer/news/20060720/nicotine-speeds-lu...

I can't find my original sources, so please, take my personal theories with a grain of salt... Many years ago I was studying the types of cancer smokers are more likely to get other than lung cancer. After my uncontrollable urge to crunch numbers, I came up with 2/3 lung cancer, 1/3 other cancer and made an unscientific guess that nicotine plays a big part in the non-lung cancer related illness.

It's all about risk. The roulette table will give you a 100% return in 10 seconds. It's very risky though...

It would be nice if there was a US only odesk clone that popped up and became popular. I'd give it a shot...

Yeah there is a lot of cool e-cig stuff out there. But I would think it's still cheaper in the long run.

There is a lot of studies that still need to be done. My personal theory is that since 1/3 of smoking related deaths are due to nicotine, e-cigs are about 66% "safer" than analog cigs.

E-cigs are not supposed to help people quit. They are a smoking alternative.

Here's a nice list: http://www.101domain.com/new_gtld_extensions.htm

If these become really popular won't they break a ton of code? "My email is hello.peeps@my.feedback"

Personally, I've seen users struggle with anything other than .com. I had a .net once and there were so many "I couldn't find your website" issues from users because it wasn't a .com.

Wow, that is interesting. Things are different when the budget is $500/month and position 7 might yield one click a year...

I used igoogle to load a gmail iframe on my (insanely awesome) custom start page. It really sucks they shut that down.

I was also using the Google Toolbar (do not consume) spelling auto-correct "API". I was doing some really neat stuff with that technology and they shut that down too. Sure, I can't really complain about that one, but the end result is the same...

If you adopt Google technology, prepare for labor intensive migrations, alternative scrambling, and disappointments.

You never know...

The problem is user commercial intent: "I need to spent $3600 on a new thing for my thing. I'd better search the web with Google to find it." "I need to find out what my ex-girl friend did last Saturday. I'd better go to Facebook."

The average Facebook cost per click is about $0.80. I would be a buyer at $0.04 cost per click.

Here is my guess: 2/3 of cancer is from smoke, 1/3 is from nicotine. E-cigs are 66% safer/better than analog cigs.
