MassiveLinks and Image Search
Alternate Search, Social Media August 15th, 2007
We are joined by Fabio Cuffaro of MassiveLinks.com to discuss his Evolution of the web directory. He also shares some information he is found with Google Image Search and the Safe Search features.
Is Dames really a British word? I’ve lived in the UK for nearly 37 years and had only heard the word ‘Dames’ used in war films, prior to hearing about Fabio’s site!
Great information about what one can do with a link directory. Thanks guys.
@Lee - now that I think of it… maybe it was a 50’s thing Bogart and whatnot “silly dames” or “That’s one crazy dame”
Although the UK does have it’s own flavor of the English Language…
