There's money in finding stuff (and not just down the back of the sofa).


Google has reported a 31% profit surge for the first quarter of 2008. Its profits for the first three months of the year were up from $1bn (£507m) to $1.31bn (£664m).

Online ad clicks increased by 20% in the quarter, despite fears that a shift to fewer, more-targeted ads would harm the company. In the UK, travel and finance advertising contributed towards revenue of $803m (£407m) – 15% of the search engine's global income.
