Open Letter to Google on WebAccelerator



Well you all stepped in a big pile of Horse dung and the flies are following you into the house. Your introduction of WebAccelerator is costing me time, money and valuable statistical data. Where do I sent the bill.

Let’s see $500.00 a hour to implement some code to my webpages to stop you from caching it. Thats across 11 websites. Lets see what else ohh impact on my sites statistics. I think I’ll charge you .25 cents every time the IP from your server bank that is associated with webaccelerator touches my website.

Ohh an you also have been serving me pages in the entirety from your own server bank not mind their has to be some copyright violations in their someplace.

Yepp you messed up good and this time you stepped over the line. Don’t even try and insert autolinking data into our articles that you are serving from your server.

Where do I send the bill thats the next question? [Inside Google]
