Google is a magical place to me. I have pages that I don’t think should be ranked so well at all but by some fluke come up #1 for some top key words, and other’s I’ve spent weeks trying to optimize that can’t gain Google Favor. This interview has some great answers and translations from questions answered by Google.

Are You Keeping Your Website Out Of The Google’s First Page?

Search engines are very difficult to completely understand. There are no complete explanations of how their ranking algorithms work. But the very fact that the average person does not intuitively know how to crack the search engine algorithms leads to all sorts of questions; Usually variations of:

Forward Email Responsibly

Are you tired of people sending you outlandish statements about each and everyone of the people running or office this election year??? Me too! I love the snopes.com site. The link above takes you to the political database so you can see exactly what IS and ISN’T true about your favorite and least favorite candidates. Have you seen that picture of Sarah Palin in a bikini??? well.. it’s not here..just a dude with photoshop with too much time on his hands….
Get those other annoying emails about PEPSI products, and freezing plastic water bottles, freaky pictures of sharks just behind the surfer? (that is a photoshop fake by the way) if you get any of these emails, PLEASE do not forward them to another 50 people before you confirm them on snopes. The more this junk mail gets passed around, the more clogged our emails get, the servers time is wasted, your cable connection slows down… it’s just needless internet gossip that doesn’t deserve our time energy or resources..
FORWARD EMAIL RESPONSIBLY!

New Gadgets for your Google Blogs
By · Leave a Comment
What are those things I keep seeing on blogs???
I have been having so much fun “digg” ing around the internet for all the new social networking sites and following them to great blogs! The FAVORITE thing of all is all the new gadgets I’ve been finding on other people’s blog sites. If you like any of the one’s I have on the right of my page, usually if you just click on them it will take you to their own “widget maker” page and you can get one for your blog too…
In your Blogspot Blog, just go to your dashboard, layout, page elements, Add a Gadget, you will usually need the Html/Java Script one.. click on that.. copy and paste whatever little script the Gadget maker gave you… save and wala (is that a word?) you have your new gadget… Preview to see where you want to put it and then “grab” the widget box and pull it into position. Save… there you have it.
I just found the twitter box this morning… it’s cute! And then separate from that the twitter updates, My DIGG… things I’ve found online that were interesting… not necessarily all business.. but interesting none the less. Sphinn it… a social website all about Social Networks and Web 2.0, and then of course the two coolest things were the “share this” and “add this” buttons so that you can save this blog or certain articles on any one of the many social networking sites out there…
There are a bunch of these sites.. I’ve listed some of the most popular below for you to check out….
Facebook
Any RSS Feed
So THAT’s what all those cute little things I keep seeing on the net!
It really is fun getting on these sites and seeing if any of your long lost relatives are out there. I so far have found two of my college roommates that I’d lost touch with, so if for now other reason… that made it worth it.
