This only happens if you're connected to them. If they're not in your circle, then you're not connected to them, as was quoted above.Check the image again,they don't have to connect with you via G+ only. Even if you're in connection somehow using email or following them on G+ or blogger follow system etc, then this will affect SERP. For example, Matt cutts is connected to you in one way public stream activity but he's not going to follow you or many others, still his suggestions will appear in your SERP. Same goes with anyone with gmail account sending emails to you. You'll see the influence of their search pattern in your results page if they're searching google by logging in to any google service.-mahesh2k (August 16, 2011, 01:40 AM)

"Linkman is by far the best solution we've tried for keeping your bookmarks safe and up to date." -- CNET Editorial Review
Links, links, links. They're how we organize the internet, and for many of us, how we organize our lives. But how do we organize our links? How do we turn that rat's nest of hundreds, thousands, even tens-of-thousands of URLs into something useful, intuitive, and (most importantly) cross-browser?
With Linkman, of course!
Linkman -- short for Link Manager -- is a complete bookmark management solution that can efficiently organize and check large amounts of links and effectively replace your browser's native URL management system.
But best of all, Linkman offers uniform access across all of your browsers. Linkman allows you to install Firefox 3-5, IE 7-9, Chrome (all versions) and Opera 11 addons as optional components. No other bookmark manager features such comprehensive browser support. Not even close! Only Linkman ensures that all of your links will be readily accessible no matter which browser you're using at that particular moment!
But what about those nasty little 404 errors? After all, the internet changes over time, and a good link today might very well be a broken link tomorrow. Linkman includes powerful bookmark validation features that continually scan your link database for dead links, page movements, and even content changes!
And Linkman is fast, no matter how many links you've got stored away. Just start typing a keyword and get results within a second, even with link databases in the millions! In addition, Linkman allows you to combine wildcards and operators (AND, AND NOT, OR, "-") in your searches, and to utilize a powerful Search and Replace feature.
With secure password protection features, the ability to export and print out functional link reports, the option to install Linkman on a portable USB stick, and even the ability to sync databases between multiple computers, it's hard to think of anything Linkman can't do when it comes to bookmarks.
If you use bookmarks on a regular basis for work, play, or just plain living, you owe it to yourself to check out Linkman!
Version Alert: Linkman 8.0 offers up-to-date browser compatibility and fully supports the latest versions of Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Opera.

Check this out folks -- Cacheman was literally THE FIRST Windows performance optimization software. Ever! Millions of Windows power-users have been utilizing it since 1997 to keep their PCs running as smooth as silk. How's that for pedigree!
We've all been there. The more applications you install and run, the slower and buggier your computer gets over time. Mildly annoying at first, this gradual degeneration can become a serious time suck and eventually even require the purchase of a new computer. Not a fun situation!
Many of these performance issues are the result of inefficient, confused memory and process management by Windows. And this is where Cacheman steps in. Cacheman is specifically designed to enhance computer speed and stability by optimizing caches, managing memory, and fine-tuning system settings.
And by golly, it works! Just a few minutes with Cacheman and you'll experience noticeable performance increases across the board!
For power-users and experienced tweakers, Cacheman offers an unprecedented level of control over memory and system functions. Got a memory leak? Use Cacheman to minimize the damage by specifying a maximum usage for the leaking application. Want to allocate more CPU juice to some applications and less to others? Use Cacheman to set permanent process priorities so that your important applications will always have enough resources for optimum performance!
And for those wishing to continually monitor their system processes, Cacheman offers up to five fully-customizable system tray icons that provide relevant information at a glance. Besides being able to specify which information is displayed, you can change the type (graph, block, number) and even the colors!
Cacheman is clearly ideal for the power-user, but the developers haven't forgotten about those of us who aren't quite as technically-inclined. Cacheman offers novices a fantastically-simple One-Click Auto-Optimize tool that examines your system and automatically applies the best settings and system tweaks in order to improve performance and stability. You can even optimize your computer for specific tasks by selecting individual Auto-Optimization profiles like Gaming Computer or Notebook | Netbook.
And for your peace of mind, Cacheman features an advanced backup feature that allows you to revert any of your tweaks with a single click!
Why waste another second on system lag? Give Cacheman a try today and experience that new-computer feeling all over again!

Same price? Where? I've been looking for a monitor (looking at 24" or 27") and it seems that the big difference in the price points of the lower end vs the upper end is resolution...-wraith808 (August 14, 2011, 01:36 PM)
Well, the 22" and 23" monitors offered closeby (next big city that is, 8 km away) in the bigger retail shop, are all between 100 and 180 Euro, where the 100 Euro one is 1680x1050 and only has VGA input, but the 180 Euro model has 1920x1080 and DVI or HDMI interface also. There's a choice in brands like LG, Samsung and Philips.
A 24" is available from around 200 Euro, and has DVI interface, and a 27" full HD can be had for 250 Euro, and comes with DVI as well. But this is all on special offer for this week-Ath (August 15, 2011, 10:13 AM)
I have some friends that both had good jobs years ago and had built their dream house. Then the economy went to shit.
They both lost their jobs, and the mortgage fell behind. The bank foreclosed, but took 3 years to get around to evicting them.
The house sat for a year or two during which time they both managed to find new stable jobs.
--Now here's the weird part--
When the house went back on the market, a friend in real estate let them know ... Which allowed them to once again buy the house. But this time at a substantial discount because of the markets devaluation.
So while the wife & I will probably never make it out from under our house payments. At least I get to laugh about ^that^.-Stoic Joker (August 15, 2011, 06:40 AM)

I think his point was to be in opposition to your point. The idea is, if you don't want people to see anything, don't share public. Public is not limited by G+ in any way. So don't use it.If someone follows you on G+, it means that your public posts will show up in their stream, nothing more. They would be able to see those public posts by going to your profile as well, that is the whole point of "public". There is no relation the other way unless you choose to follow them back.Exactly.-mahesh2k (August 15, 2011, 04:30 AM)
One more thing why i hate G+ is that, your friends and family influence the search results. So this could be a problem if you're connected to any profile which is made by link spammer or annoying friend who constantly posts links or stuff. This includes many top social media celebs who post too many links in their activity streams every hour.This only happens if you're connected to them. If they're not in your circle, then you're not connected to them, as was quoted above.-mahesh2k (August 15, 2011, 04:30 AM)
Sorry, but I'm one of 'those people' who doesn't appreciate people who presume to speak or act on my behalf without my explicit consent. I have enough respect for myself and MY freedom that I don't willingly cede its support and maintenance to anyone - be they a big faceless government, or a group of trashers. Especially when their rhetoric about the "clueless masses" sounds just like the attitude of contempt towards humanity you perceive in the actions of so many of those already in power.-40hz (August 14, 2011, 04:05 PM)

I do believe a lot of people have blind faith in services like Facebook and don't realize all the implications of putting their personal info out there. They could definitely use a wake up call. Having their faith in FB shaken a bit can't hurt.-nosh (August 14, 2011, 02:01 PM)
Hm, you might have liked a 22" full-hd resolution (1920x1080) for even more screen real-estate better then 1680x1050, and the price shouldn't be a problem, as most of them have even the same price-Ath (August 13, 2011, 05:58 AM)

One suggestions I saw elsewhere was to try one of the JetBrains solutions: http://www.jetbrains.com/index.html
Either WebStorm or PhpStorm. They were recommended as faster alternatives to the more popular IDEs. None of the JetBrains stuff is free but they do seem quite nice.-nudone (August 09, 2011, 03:39 AM)
