The more I think about it the worse I feel about the time slot. Most young viewers during that time watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Show and older viewers watch local news. I cant see many young viewers switching to watch Conan.
4.2 million viewers, median age 30.  For reference, it beat out Stewart, Colbert, Leno, Letterman, and even out-viewed all of NBC primetime on Monday.

Advertisers have to be drooling over this.

I will be curious to see how those numbers hold up. Thats nice strong start!


He's already about a good million viewers ahead of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, I actually read an article last night on Yahoo! that talked about how The Daily Show would be duking it out with Conan for ratings now that Jon Stewart has competition.

Has google always had a preview of the webpage show up when you click a search result? :blink: I never noticed it before
Thats been around for about 2 months.. i hate it <_<
Its funny how I just noticed it! I guess I never clicked in those areas before.

Well first showings are always extremely high. If he can maintain a lead over Stewart in a month then that is awesome. The more competition the better! Stewart has been a bit dry lately

I like that feature! It gives me a glimpse of what's in the website.

Are you talking about the feature that "guesses" what you want to search by showing a list of websites or a different one?

Well the extensive advertising paid off on that too, WUWA is a perfect example of that. *cough* *cough*  :whistling:

It comes up for me on the first time you do a Google search.  You have to click on the magnifying glass to the right of a search link to see a preview of it.  It's called "Instant Previews," and Google released this new feature earlier today.

Zach, you can turn off that instant search feature when you're logged into Google if you think it's too annoying for you.  Simply log into your Google account like Gmail, then go to this link and turn off "Google Instant" at the bottom of the page:

Oh ok so it was today. That makes a lot of sense. It doesn't appear on all searches yet.

Why do some of you all hate Google Instant?  It's supposed to speed up searches, which it does pretty well on my end.  You realize that you can add a Google search on your browser toolbar, and you won't see any instant searches until you navigate to the Google page itself?

Or you can switch to Google Chrome. That's another choice. :P

I use the search box. I rarely go to the main site, except to see the doodle for the day.

I'm sticking with Safari. I have Chrome, but I don't use it.
