What recession?
A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist
sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”
I want to see next quarter’s TAC percentage, because it is not showing in the payouts.
You misunderstood Eric Schmidt’s comment.
The recession is over for Google, not for us.
They figured out how to get more revenue from the advertisers by giving away our revenue.

Actually I think they have figured out a way to get more out of the advertiser and more out of us as well
I think the recession hasn’t even begun yet. As long as the bailouts and fraud keeps coming in, there won’t be any recession.
