Seems like Google has joined the forces with Barack Obama campaign and now they are shutting down anti-obama Blogspots blogs.
One of the blogger has reported that he used to Own a Happy internet home on blogger.com and on Wednesday night he received below mail from Blogger Team:
Dear Blogger user,
This is a message from the Blogger team.
Your blog, at http://comealongway.blogspot.com/, has been identified as a potential spam blog. . .

This is not the only case .. at Hillaryclintonforum there is a thread Blogger just shut down my NObama Blog!! Have your blog been affected?
All I can say is, WOW! If Google is willing to abuse its power like this even against fellow leftists, what does it plan against conservatives, the folks Google hates even more!?
Here is a list of the Blogspot blogs that have been frozen by Google thus far:
- Blue Lyon - http://bluelyon.blogspot.com
- Come A Long Way - http://comealongway.blogspot.com
- Hillary or Bust - http://hillaryorbust.blogspot.com

Well, If you’re a developer then you can get that information aboubt Android on the Android site. But if you’re interested in the history of Android, how much Google may have paid for the platform and its hypothetical outlook, you can read this long Wired article.
According to Nielsen Mobile Google already has a commanding lead in mobile search:
- Google (61%)
- Yahoo! (18%)
- MSN (5%)
One could thus argue that Google doesn’t need Android to succeed to win in mobile. Indeed, there are tough competitors and skeptics that Google faces there: “frenemy” Apple, Nokia and ambivalent or even hostile US carriers.
While Google has made a big, very public bet on Android, it can afford to take a long-term view of mobile. Unlike a startup with limited funding Google could wait a decade for Android to pay dividends. And by then mobile search will almost certainly have surpassed the desktop in volume, if not in monetization.

Update: There are more states and countries where it is visible !!
Seems like Google.co.uk gives special treatment for bisexual’s .. check this:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=bisexual
Also check the result for “Gay” :
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=gay
And with “lesbian” 2 ..
http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=lesbian
However this is only with Google.co.uk … and other DC like .Com and .co.in are not showing such results like this …
So what u guys have to say about this .. hun ?
The Adwords Ads on right hand side shows rainbow colors !!
But why ?
Actually Rainbow colors are a globally recognized gay symbol and there’s Pride Week coming up.
Thats why Google is Lining up ads in that way to attract them .
The original flag (Rainbow colors Gay Symbol) had eight stripes from top to bottom: pink (sexuality), red (life), orange (healing), yellow (sunlight), green (nature), turquoise (magic), indigo/blue (serenity), and violet (spirit). Within a year, the flag had shed two of its stripes—pink and violet.
Since, many variations of the flag have been created. For instance, a black stripe is added to some symbolizing those lost to AIDS. There are also variations to represent bisexual people, bears and others.
Google always try to make something different at different seasons, so they try to change there Logos at front pages and try to give some different outputs to users . this is one of the trick used by Google.
