One of the many reasons why I use Gmail. Spam is a thing of the past with Gmail. Gmail is definitely improving on the battle against spam in the Inbox.

From the first quarter to the second this year, Gmail got nearly 15 times better at distinguishing legitimate commercial e-mail messages from spam, according to a new report from Lyris, a maker of e-mail marketing software.

Search salaries from over 50 million jobs in the past year. How much should you be making? Enter your occupation title, city, state and zipcode, and Salary Search and salary search will show you what you should be making.

“Indeed Salary Search is based on an index of salary information extracted from over 50 million job postings from thousands of unique sources over the last 12 months. Many job descriptions don’t contain salary information, but there are enough that do to produce statistically significant average salaries for millions of keyword, job title and location combinations - in fact, most job searches you are likely to think of. As new jobs are added each day, the Indeed Salary Search index is automatically updated with fresh salary data, so the salary results are as up-to-date as they could possibly be. Indeed Salary Search is in beta.”

Try it out: Salary Search Indeed.com

By the way if you need a job, or you need a new job also check out Indeed.com’s job search feature.

Torpark: Tweaked Firefox allows anonymous websurfing

Posted on September 20, 2006 by TechTweaker.

A tweaked version of Firefox that makes Web browsing anonymous has been released by a group of privacy-minded coders.

Every few minutes, the Torpark browser causes a computer’s IP address to appear to change. IP addresses are numeric identifier given to computers on the Internet. The number can be used along with other data to potentially track down a user, as many Web sites keep track of IP addresses.
