How do I get Google to recognize a search for "melophobe" is a search for my webpage "mel.opho.be"? If you search for "delicious" the first hit is del.icio.us, however if you search for "melophobe" my website is nowhere to be found. It's obviously the top hit in a search for "mel.opho.be" but honestly, people aren't going to be Googling it with the periods. I know there must be a solution, but I'm having a hard time figuring it out.

I don't use blogger, but I post comments on a blog that does. I happen to run my own blog (impressed?), which I used to link through Blogger's "URL" field. Apparently Google has removed that field from the commenting form. Instead it goes to my "Blogger Profile" which of course is empty, and even if were full, it still couldn't link to my self-hosted blog. What is Google thinking? Anyhow, is OpenID my friend?

Why does Google Notebook resize my pictures (and doesn't retain aspect ratio)? When I try to clip a picture by selecting (highlighting) it in a web page, and then I click "note this" then the picture is transferred to my Google Notebook. However, when I try to look at it in my notebook it has been resized and the aspect ratio is not retained. Even if I attempt to resize it within Google Notebook, it will snap back to its distorted version, usually in the same session or even within seconds. The picture I am trying to clip is 640x480, but it snaps to 245x480 in my notebook.
