Google has policies in place to protect companies from having their trademarked names abused in ads (for example, I couldn't create an ad for Apple that linked to TechCrunch), but it isn't perfect. Today we've gotten word of an example of what can go wrong with AdWords' filters don't work, and a Google employee may be behind it. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Rising profits are always heartening. But rising profits in the midst of economic calamity, when employment and GDP are tanking, consumer demand is falling, and companies such as Citigroup, Time Warner and Motorola are reporting quarterly losses in the billions of dollars -- that kind of success is the sweet nectar of the corporate gods. As we come out of one of the worst quarters in U.S. history, what's emerging is the picture of a handful of winners, companies that managed, through luck, planning or cunning to see their profits go up in the final quarter of 2008. ]]></description>

Formerly a contract technical writer, Noel became one of the many casualties of the global economic crisis. With the IT contract market in decline, and with a lot more time on his hands than anticipated, Noel decided to take the plunge into iPhone development.

<description><![CDATA[ As one of the new bloggers on Peer-to-Peer, I'm excited about teaming up with PC World to share my experiences as an entrepreneur. I've started several technology companies with an idea jotted on a napkin. From there, I moved to writing out a business plan and developing the products and services. That in turn led to mass-marketing my companies and building them into multimillion-dollar businesses, after which I sold them. I will probably share more of what not to do and the mistakes I've made over the years rather focus on the glorious parts. ]]></description>
