Google Groupies

Is it just me or is this site a pandering ploy to grab Google's (and Moreover's) attention? It appears that the site, Google Village, is part of a network of sites owned by an outfit called Verity Intellectual Properties Pty Ltd of Australia, which seems to be creating a network around topics like Google, something called Personal Brain and some abstract concept called Technacy. Uhhh, OK.

So far, the company, using a bevy of .info domains, has managed to get Moreover to buy into their ploy, and Google probably will too, as it looks like they've been very good about optimizing especially for Google. Here's a sampling of Verity's "revolutionary" philosophy:

The company is a private company owned by Mr. Mel Olsen, a businessman in Sydney, Australia, who is seeking new ways of doing business, and seeking to change his business model from those types of businesses where he is required every moment of each day, to drive money earning to a business that earns money at any time of day or night where effort of the business owner and/or manager is not a bottleneck. Mel has hired Dr Elwyn Jenkins, who has had a number of years experience in building ideas on the Internet, to drive much of the activity. However, Verity Intellectual Properties Pty Ltd does have some other activities planned that are outside of this first and key employee.

The main purpose of Verity Intellectual Properties Pty Ltd is to develop a body of knowledge surrounding the tools of technacy that is second to none on the Internet. Verity Intellectual Properties Pty Ltd is in its infancy and does not as yet have any site that is "authoritative" on subjects. However, it is working towards being recognized as such over time. You will see developed over a period of time knowledge on the following tools of technacy in this first phase of the businesses' development...


You show 'em, Mr. Mel!
