Why I Give Full Articles in My Feed
With apologies to those who come here only for the ranting… I have a plan to do a whole series of articles on search engine optimization (SEO) for bloggers. While the topic of full vs. partial feeds may not be directly related to SEO at first glance, I feel that it is in a round [...]
Yahoo! With a Huge Web Hosting Announcement
The other day I mentioned Microsoft’s bid to buy Yahoo! Today, Yahoo! made a pretty interesting announcement…Yahoo! Web Hosting now provides UNLIMITED disk space and UNLIMITED bandwidth for less than $12. That means that those videos you’ve been uploading to YouTube (owned by Google) because they are big and take up bandwidth can now be [...]
My 2007 Year in Review
Unlike everyone else, I slacked off and waited until 2008 was officially here to do my review. 2007 was my first year of full on blogging. I’d messed around here and there with different blogs before, but 2007 was the year I drank the Kool Aid and went at it for real. I’ll keep this [...]
Numerous Results and Micro Pimping
I thought I’d go ahead and address several things in one post–recent scientific polls, Christmas shopping, and my numerous (un)successful endeavors. First Annual Backlink Drive–a resounding success. I picked up a link from it (thanks Ivy!). Rico/Suave–by a majority of eleven to four, many more of you are “suave” than “rico”. Gerardo respects and appreciates [...]
First Annual Backlink Drive
This isn’t really an SEO oriented blog, but the topic does come up every now and then, usually relating to things like the importance of backlinks. Backlinks help in several ways–traffic, Technorait authority, Google PR–and are key to building a successful blog, or so I’ve read. How do you get links? A couple of ways [...]
Ask Not What Google Can Do For You
I’d wager that most of this blog’s regular readers fall into two main categories. The first group is those who know me IRL and like to see me make an ass of myself. Lately that has been happening online with a keyboard much more frequently than late at night with a debit card. Probably not [...]
He Plays, err, Blogs the Right Way
All the recent talk locally about proper link attribution prompted me to finish a post I started a while back about blogging and baseball. “Everything I need to know about blogging I learned from watching baseball”? Eh, don’t really like that title too much. Plus it sounds like link bait, and I’d never do that. [...]
Anchor Text Matters!
Sending out the 411 to the other bloggers who read this–yes, the anchor text you use when linking to other bloggers matters, technically. Michael Silence says: In my more than five years of following blogs and my three years of blogging, it’s always been clear linking to the source is proper attribution. It’s also concise. [...]
Barbie Cummings and the Highway Patrol
Could it be the title of her next movie? Barbie Cummings is a clever, clever girl. The porn star based out of Knoxville was pulled over by a Tennessee Highway Patrolman outside of Nashville and engaged in an exchange of favors with the officer. Actually, she still got the ticket, so there actually wasn’t an [...]

Only a month and a day after posting this, I come across younanimous.com, which bills itself as a social search engine. Results are based not only on traditional search engine results that it retrieves, but also on user recommendations. Check it out, pretty cool!!!
