As I had access to those pages it was easy enough to edit them so I could od a removal request pointing out the info sort that side of it out (admittedly after a lot of research as to how to get it done) and most of the requests have been granted and the caches cleared. However using that same personal info as a search term lists those pages still, just minus cache or reference to the info in the search result or page itself.</p> <p>I know it takes until google crawls again for that to change, as it has to find new info on the page to make its new search terms, but does anyone know roughly how long that takes? </p> http://www.googletutor.com/forums/topic/include-images-1#post-256 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 17:35:09 +0000 The Tutor 256@http://www.googletutor.com/forums/ <p>Images would be nice as would many other things, but this was really intended to simply list the links you liked in Google Reader.

I used the Trueswitch application to import all my email and contacts from Comcast but now how can I notify all my 500+ contacts of my new email address. If there was a step in the Trueswitch process, I must have missed it because I have already pinged a few of my contacts and they have not received an email from my Gmail address informing them that I have changed to Gmail.

So it makes sense not to differentiate them.<br /> - In most cases not having the image makes it almost impossible to understand the post because the post is actually about the image<br /> - Google reader is already republishing the content in full, having it elsewhere is the same.<br /> - A long page of text is just not digest<br /> - If (and only if) the source and author are mentioned it is actually promoting them, which is a good thing<br /> - Having the images will make your plugin and our Google reader replication more successful<br /> - etc</p> <p>Let me know your thoughts<br /> Thanks for creating that plugin </p> http://www.googletutor.com/forums/topic/gmail-accelerator#post-252 Sat, 27 Feb 2010 13:10:42 +0000 The Tutor 252@http://www.googletutor.com/forums/ <p>I just tested this in IE8 and it worked. </p> <p>Tools &gt; Manage Add Ons &gt; Accelerators</p> <p>There you should see the gmail accelerator and be able to disable or remove it. </p> http://www.googletutor.com/forums/topic/gmail-accelerator#post-251 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 17:30:10 +0000 mrkoopbam 251@http://www.googletutor.com/forums/ <p>ive been trying to turn off my gmail accelerator! i cant figure it out it seems to be built in its not an add on and i realy need it turned off !!! please help!!! </p> http://www.googletutor.com/forums/topic/tax-forms-canadainindividual-adsense-account#post-250 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 09:59:00 +0000 The Tutor 250@http://www.googletutor.com/forums/ <p>Hi Arlene,</p> <p>It should be very similar but I wouldn't trust me on tax issues.
