To narrow down your selection of articles, click on the "AND" or "NOT" next to any of the categories below. Say you’re currently browsing entries in category "A", you can then drill down into entries that belong both to category A and another category, or belong to category A but not another category. For instance, you could list entries about demographics in the automotive sector, or entries about email marketing that are not about spam. Numbers in the columns below indicate how many entries the selected operation will narrow your query to. You can combine multiple intersection and exclusion criteria to further limit the number of entries.

More Changes to Google Search; TLD Not Part of the Mix

The suit is the first tangible countermove against a plan proposed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) earlier this year to allow companies to create website addresses ending in their own names — that is, replacing the .com with, say, an Apple.com, or a place, such as Vegas.com.

Criticism of ICANN's TLD Plan Mounts in Online Ad Industry
Suddenly, it seems, the marketing industry has come to a decision about the value of a plan proposed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) earlier this year: in short, it has said, there is none. Briefly, in June ICANN voted to allow companies to create website addresses ending in their own names — that is, replacing the .com with, say, an Apple.com, or a place, such as Vegas.com.
This Top Level Domain, or TLD, plan was controversial [...]
