Sarah Khider是谁?
热播了有2年多了的那个芝华士“阿拉斯加冰钓”的广告看过吧,背景音乐中那首“美人鱼(Mermaid)”喜欢吧,:-) 这首歌就是Sarah Khider唱的。
2年来妮妮: 芝华士广告和优美的歌曲:完整版浮出水面这个帖子已经有三百多篇留言,而昨天的第353篇就来自这首歌的主唱者:Sarah Khider
Hi I'm sarah khider. I'm the singer of the song "Mermaid". I never could imagine you all would love this song. Nice... my mail address's sarahkhider@aol.com
WOW, 太神奇了,我回信确认了一下:她回信说她是法国人,住巴黎,几周前Ego surfing自己的名字的时候给所有找到的文章留了言。
First of all, we’d like to apologize for the lateness of this blog post. We know folks have been concerned about the recent outage of MSN Search, what that means for them and us, and what we are doing to address it. A lot of the team was engaged in technical matters yesterday and today is really the first chance we’ve had to catch our breath and talk more about it. Next time we will be more ready to blog and let you know what the word is.
Second, we’d like to apologize for the outage itself. It’s not the kind of thing you expect from us, and it’s not frankly what we expected either. We are still troubleshooting the cause of the failure at this time, and to assist us in that we have disabled the speller function of Search. Once we are done, that functionality will be restored, but for now, we ask that you bear with us as we figure out what went awry. People are monitoring the servers minute-by-minute, working on this. We know it is important to you. People here feel like they’ve been punched in the stomach when the site goes down – it’s important to us too.
Sometimes we find the answer quickly and sometimes it takes quite awhile to diagnose. Typically the length of time it takes to diagnose correlates to the severity of the outage. Say you are in a car accident – a rear-end collision at 10mph can turn into a 10-car pileup, and the folks at the end of the line have a hard time figuring out exactly why their car was affected. This one is taking us more time, and we wish it wasn’t . We will definitely keep you posted as things progress.
Delighting our customers is our #1 job. Yesterday we didn’t do our job. Everyone here on the search team is dedicated to bringing you the best answer to your query – whenever you ask it. We’re still new to the search business – and in many ways we’re still learning.

General Manager Web Search
自从读了几页书以后,竟然装模做样的开始喜欢起看画,看那种美术馆里面的画。
最近,做了个试验。就是试着盯着一幅画看很久很久,脑子里为它起一个名字,然后去看标牌上的名字和我想得是不是一样。结果,居然发现,猜测的和实际几乎经常一模一样。让我好不得意。
例一:
看到一大幅油画,上面只花了一个大苹果,红扑扑的,画得很细腻,很好看的样子。凝视五分钟,得出结论,画的名字叫做:《苹果》。一看标牌,果然。
例二:
上海美术馆旁边的上海大剧院画廊里面有一幅画,画的是两排树,很显然是白杨树,很密集的在两边。看了很长时间,得出结论,主题是《林荫道》。一看,果然。
例三:
这个最神。也是在同一个画廊,进门,眼睛还没有办法是应画廊里面的光线的时候,就看到一幅一米多高的油画,上面一个忧郁的三十多岁的女人,皮肤白皙,侧靠在桌边,身着黑色的连衣裙。
这个看了几分钟以后,就叫它(你估计也猜得出了),《穿黑衣的女人》。哈,又对了。
玩笑
其实这是个玩笑。
以前看画总是心不在焉的瞄几眼画就急切的想从画的标题里面找到些提示,让自己好看得懂它。结果总是不得要领。最近才发现,标题仅仅是个记录方便的符号而已,比如《苹果》也常被叫做《静物一》,《静物四》什么的。画的本身,才是唯一的,能让人开心,让人共鸣,让人感动的东西。标题根本不能帮上什么忙。
做了猜画名的试验,我空欢喜一番,然后觉得自己好像白痴一样。(昨天自己开始画画了)
