...more people will click on them, which in turn will boost the fees the sites can charge for them. MySpace's new "hypertargeting" strategy scans profile pages for keywords and sells ads against them.

France, for example, has lately become President Bush's strongest European ally on Iran, but much of what President Nicolas Sarkozy is hearing from his own intelligence services dilutes the sense of urgency - suggesting that Iran is unlikely to cross the threshold to nuclear-weapons capability before 2010 or 2011.
