All of these photos were taken at the San Diego Zoo on December 28, 2008. Besides maintaining a personal photo scrapbook, another reason I take time to post and label these photos is to increase search traffic for business purposes.

If you found this site while looking for stock photos of animals for advertising use, click this link for more animal stock photo CDs.

For those interested in the nerdy aspect of the photography, these were taken with a Canon Digital Rebel XTi (10MP) with a Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS EF lens.

Photos taken at the Holiday Parade (Big Bay Balloon Parade) in San Diego. As with other photos on this site, they are available in hi-res (3888 x 2592 pixels).

San Diego is a beautiful city. I had the privilege of capturing these images over the Christmas holiday, shooting 2,370 images total (8.1 GB), which was a lot of clicking. If you are interested in seeing more photos from San Diego, I’ll be posting more tomorrow. Have a great day!

Test your knowledge in identifying these city skylines…
(for the answers, just roll over the images, but no cheating!)

I hope you enjoyed this little quiz as much as I enjoyed taking these photographs.

On 12-20-08 at 9pm, when you search for ‘Google’ in Google, here’s what you get…

Within Google, just do a search for ‘Google’…

The search results are wrong. Notice the domain names of other websites. The title & descriptions don’t match the domain names and links.

Then you click the #1 result for Google (which said it was Google), but it goes to the Dex website.

The problem extends beyond searching for Google, if you search ANYTHING, the results are wrong. Nothing works at all! The entire Google search is down and has been at least for the last 30 minutes.

Searching Yahoo gives you more bogus domain name links

Searching Digg gives bogus domain name results.

A bad day for Google.
