Q: Have you ever considered inviting another Google employee to participate at Webmaster World? Might this be a good opportunity?
I was thinking about that question a while ago because I don't make it over to the AdWords forum as much as I'd like to, and I was thinking that it would be wonderful if some Googler would volunteer a little free time to answer questions about AdWords. Sure enough, I was talking to someone the other day who answers AdWords questions, and they mentioned that they'd be happy to help answer some questions on the web.
I talked to Brett and the Google/AdWords forum moderators, and folks were groovy about having another Googler show up from time to time. So without further ado, I'd like to introduce AdWordsAdvisor.
I'll give you some background info, just so you know what to expect. Just like with GoogleGuy, AdWordsAdvisor (AWA?) is going to be a single person. They'll have a different posting style than me. I'm pretty casual; they may be a little more formal--we'll see. We're going to keep AWA's identity anonymous in case they want to go on vacation, or if we ever need to switch to a different person in a pinch. AWA is going to stop by in their limited free time (mostly during work hours), so don't expect a ton of posts. If I had to guess, I would expect AdWordsAdvisor to stop by and post less often than me, because let's face it--I need to get out more.
They might start out pretty slowly to get a feel for things, and don't expect them to post on really controversial or strategic or technical threads. The person serving in this role is very familiar with AdWords and answers customer questions about nuts and bolts stuff and improving account performance. But they're not an engineer and not a techie, so I would mostly look for answers to basic questions to help newer folks with AdWords.
That's all I can think of right now, but I'll chime in if there's something I forgot. Oh, one last thing: I know just about everyone knows this, but please be nice. I've had a good long time on WebmasterWorld to thicken my skin, but this is someone who is just starting out. Thanks everyone!

Well I am sure some female webmasters would be happy to interview for the post of Mrs. GoogleGuy.
Oh, maybe that isn't what you meant by single...
Welcome AA - I think that will work out because of GG. Now all you guys have to do is find people to volunteer for the other 24 words in the alphabet. You could have the guy/girl that does news be NN (news nerd) and have the guy who does safesurf be XX....
I hear he/she may already be too busy though.
Anyway, welcome - and how about something new to start out - some little tidbit or coming soon to share with us that has never been shared before.
All the formalities and welcomes are very sweet, I hope no-one will hold it against me for asking a question, and a very newbie-ish on at that.
Bascially, what is the difference between using widget and that appearing in widget shop
AND
using "widget shop" as a phrase? Is there any benefit? Do you appear higher in searches where people specifically searched for "widget shop"?
-Thanks, and I do apologize for this question that I am sure has been answered before, but I'm new to these forums so forgive me.
