561 Christmas Tree-shaped Single Hook Copper Recent Reviews

This hook is absolutely perfect! It looks be fond of the wall was made for it, and not the other way almost! Thanks, Crazy Cart!

This item may be a Christmas item, but I find it apt for all year. The width at the top of the hook part is .75 inch and accommodates the handles of two of my strainers nicely.Even if this is described as a Christmas item I use it in my kitchen all year long. The .75 inch notch of the hook accommodates my two strainers. The wide notch of the hook allows me to use one hand to obtain my strainers promptly. The 'antique' close appeals to me and I may use more for pan lids and baskets perhaps. This is a very good value, as some hooks of cast iron and the like are heavy to begin with and may demand toggle bolts etc. I would hold more of these since the design appeals to me, but my kitchen is very small and it is a challenge where to hang equipment. Do not let the description Christmas deter you from using this hook for your needs.t

Google Obliterates Buzzy Startup Rap Genius For Trying To Game The System

Rap Genius

There is one semi-major story in development today.

Rap Genius, the startup with $15 million in funding from Andreessen Horowitz, has been clobbered by Google.



Rap Genius was caught trying to game Google to get higher search rankings.



Google's search results are based on a lot of different factors, but at the most basic level,Google measures how many other sites are linking to your site to determine where you should be in search rankings.



So, Rap Genius was asking people to add links to Rap Genius pages on their sites.It's a fairly crude, somewhat scuzzy practice.And Rap Genius got caught doing it.



Google really hates when people try to game Google.So, Google has severely punished Rap Genius.



If you try to search for "Rap Genius" you won't get the website. You'll get its Twitter page, its Wikipedia entry, its Facebook page, but you won't get a direct link to the website. Searching for lyrics no longer brings Rap Genius pages.



Rap Genius and Google are reportedly working on a solution to fix the problem. We've emailed the company for comment.



Rap Genius is a site that provides translations of rap lyrics. If you're trying to figure out what the heck Kanye West is talking about in "Bound 2," for instance, Rap Genius will explain it.



The plan for the company is to expand beyond song lyrics to provide an explanation of everything.



The idea has people excited, but the founders of the company make some people nervous. They're kids from Yale, but act like they're rappers. They talk trash, dress unusually, and do goofy stuff like, well, like this.



After getting caught trying to game Google, Rap Genius apologized, but at the same time, tried to deflect blame by saying others do the same:



"We effed up, other lyrics sites are almost definitely doing worse stuff, and well stop. Wed lovefor Google to take a closer look at the whole lyrics search landscape and see whether it can make changes that would improve lyric search results."



Incredibly, this apology may be the reason that Google all but wiped out Rap Genius from its search results.



Danny Sullivan, who understands the mechanics of Google's search results better than anyone who doesn't work at Google, said:



"We dont know exactly why Rap Genius is in trouble because Google wont say (yes, we asked, and we got a no comment on the matter for now). We know its in trouble because its no longer ranking, but ironically, this might be because since Rap Genius has declared itself in violation of Googles guidelines, Google acted to penalize it based on that, even if Rap Genius might have been fine.



The point is understanding whats a good link with Google is incredibly hard these days. Google tells you links are important to rank; Google also tells you an increasing number of rules about which links count or how links might hurt you or even how you may need to disavow links."



And Sullivan adds one more point, which is huge for investors in Rap Genius. He says that Google might eventually just nuke Rap Genius altogether by providing its own lyric pages:



Finally, its probably an incredibly dumb business model to be doing a lyrics site that hopes for Google traffic in a time when Google, like Bing, is moving toward providing direct answers. Lyrics, to my understanding, often have to be licensed. That makes them a candidate for Google to license directly and provide as direct answers.
