Hidden in the SMH today is a story about how Google has put its fingers into Travel. Now if you enter two major cities it will show a link to Expedia and a few other travel sites offering the best fares. Right now entering Sydney Albury in the seach engine does not work, but something like Sydney Melbourne does bring some results.

I think Google needs to do a lot more work on this, as they are partnering with only three serices at the moment – Hotwire, Expedia and Orbitz. Expedia only brings up Qantas, which is somewhat better than Hotwire could do, being unable to find any fares. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

TheRegister is reporting that a woman in Oregon in the USA won a $1M lottery prize purchased on a credit card. Unfortunately for her, the card belonged to her dead mother-in-law, and she has now been charged with fraud and drug possession. And to top things off, if she is convicted she will loose the prize. OOps.

Time to get some serious work done!
