Ten Commandments of Google

2008-11-30T21:14:50Z

Just had this sent to me:

Taking screenshots of Google...

I'm developing a new site, and want to understand the roles played by
the different systems that will be used, how they inter operate, and

the mailserver on one site as 'smtp.example.com', on another it's

another site, and I've been told by the client and the hoster that I
