Pilgrim’s Picks for March 5

There’s a big announcement coming later today, so I have to work on writing it up. In the meantime, enjoy these Picks (and get back here for around noon ET).
- A UK watchdog is looking at whether to establish guidelines on how the press use "public" information on social networking profiles.
- If your web page loads slowly, and you use Google AdWords, you might find your quality score lowered.
- 80% of university graduates use the web to search for jobs. 80% of them also use social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace.
- With his tongue somewhat in cheek, Dennis Bjørn Petersen, lists the essential traits of a Problogger and he’s working hard to become one–so I thought a link would help.

Nice links, Andy, thank you!
I just found your stite via your guest post at problogger.net. I have to say that I really have enjoyed reading it thus far, and you’ve got quite a depth of material here for me to still go through. Good form!

Strangely enough, I have found every job I’ve ever worked in the last 10 years over the net. What’s funny is that I fall into that 57% category of not researching the company for an hour prior to the interview. Gosh, that sounds terrible, doesn’t it? lol.

@Steve
Thank you very much Steve. Yeah, that MacBook Air isn’t free. I think I’ll go Pro instead. It would be nice with a dvd-drive and more performance.
