GNC #669 Fantastic Show

Posted by geeknews at 12:52 AM on May 10, 2011

The hardest part of the show is stopping when I have so much to share, but I am going to do my best to keep the show at 70 minutes. The number of you watching is proving keeping the format tight is good for audience growth. On tonight’s show, I have a pretty strong message for the Mac users so you need to listen in on this one.

GNC #666 My Wife wants What!

Posted by geeknews at 1:27 AM on April 29, 2011

The month is winding down, but I could not be happier the team of writers at GNC have been kicking out some pretty awesome content. The refresh of the show formula so far is working and the feedback so far has been positive. I am on the search for existing talent across the new media space. Do you know of a show that is considered to be at the top of the class in their genre? If so I want to talk to them… Big thanks to the Insiders for all their support and of course the Ohana for being part of the show.

Google Labs Launches Page Speed

Posted by Alan Buckingham at 2:50 PM on March 31, 2011

Google Labs has launched a cool new open-source tool for webmasters called Page Speed. It can be used both online or via a browser extension. It allows users to analyze any website – not just the ones you have admin access to. After running a quick analysis it will offer suggestions for how a user can optimize their website.

The analysis runs quickly and when it’s finished it will break down it’s suggestions by High Priority, Medium Priority, and Low Priority. Within each you will find more detailed information such as “Optimize images” or “Minimize Redirects”. Each suggestion is a hyperlink which, when clicked, will give more detailed information about how to fix that particular problem. It also generates an overall score for the page out of a possible perfect 100 score.

The Page Speed test can be run from the Google Labs Page Speed site. From there you can also download browser extensions for Firefox or Chrome. The tool is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac.
