Note from Beth: I’m hosting a small army of guest bloggers, grantmakers, who are attending the GeoFunders National Conference taking place this week in Seattle.

Distortive results – an average revenue per “user” figures are inaccurate, due to inflated “user” counts. The end result? l everage the results. Moral of the story?

The case originated in Spain where a man there filed a complaint arguing that Google's search results infringed on his privacy. My friend and colleague, Michael DeLong died last week in Seattle.
