Danny Sullivan speaks at the Gnomedex!
Danny Sullivan spoke at Gnomedex today. Sullivan is considered a “Search Engine Guru”. He is affiliated with marketers, webmasters, and the daily web users. Here is a little bio on him from third door media.
“Danny’s expertise about search engines is often sought by the media, and he has been quoted in places like The Wall St. Journal, USA Today, The Los Angeles Times, Forbes, The New Yorker and Newsweek and ABC’s Nightline.
Danny began covering search engines in late 1995, when he undertook a study of how they indexed web pages. The results were published online as “A Webmaster’s Guide To Search Engines,” a pioneering effort to answer the many questions site designers and Internet publicists had about search engines.
The positive reaction from both marketers and general search engine users caused Danny to expand the guide into Search Engine Watch, where he served as editor-in-chief through November 2006. Now he heads up Search Engine Land as editor-in-chief, taking it into the next generation of search coverage. Danny also serves as Third Door Media’s chief content officer.”
Danny Sullivan began his segment talking about how encycolopedias, Wikipedia, and Google, have changed how we use the internet. Sullivan said “Search engines are the top way we get information”, “58 percent of people when they need an answer they use the internet”. “49 percent of people say that they use a search engine every day”.
“A collison between our internet life, and our real life,” Sullivan continued on describing how Search began effecting our lives. How the technology of Google has mapped out our lives whether it’s through Google Maps, Search, Email, or Earth.
