Google “hijacking” 404 pages

It looks like Google Toolbar beta 5 carries a little surprise for 404 pages - a new default view. Instead of being served up a vanilla browser generated page when you encounter a 404, the Toolbar will come to your rescue with alternate suggestions and a Google search bar. If this isn’t to your liking, the Toolbar does enable you to disable this feature. But, webmasters that have custom 404 pages will have to make sure that their 404 pages are bigger than 512 bytes if they want to keep users with the Google Toolbar able to see the custom pages.

Gmail surveys the connection between love and e-mail

According to the survey, Gmail (and other webmail services) have been helping Cupid with his work - with 1 in 3 people having used webmail for sending love-related messages. As might be expected, the age group of these users tends to be on the younger side. But as the young get older, will e-mail become standard fare in the game of love?

T-Mobile: Goodbye Google, Hello Yahoo

T-Mobile users in Europe will no longer have Google be the default search for their mobile phones and will find themselves with a slice of Yahoo instead. Of course, Google isn’t one to be dumped without a fallback - as Google will have it’s mobile search be the power behind Nokia search.
