∞ I still fail to understand the mentality behind spammers, as I am sure we all do. Fine, they’re trying to get back-links, trying to get their (often faked) product out onto the market, trying to make money. I think we can all agree on that. But why, if that is the case, would anyone write [...]

∞ Silliness because, while I was researching the last post, on butts, I can across a few ‘optical similar’ photographs which made me pause for thought. Take this, for example, what do you imagine this photograph is similar to? Photo Source: vebidoo You’ll be surprised:

∞ Dear Spammers, it is wonderful that you have taken time out to come and plague visit my site and you have no idea how much it isn’t appreciated. However, could I ask a small favor of you please? Rather than plaguing visiting one page or post and adding your worthwhile and intellectually enhancing messages, could [...]

∞ Do you check and see where people come from, how they get to your blog, where they land, what they look at and where they go on to? Apparently this is recommended by everyone who has anything to say about Search Engine Optimization (SEO), along with a liberal use of so-called key or buzzwords. The [...]

∞ Society is in overload, at least as far as the flood of information we are confronted with each and every day is concerned. You cannot turn your head, no matter where you are, without seeing some form of news items, an advertisement, general information. It is almost impossible to keep up with everything that is [...]

∞ As you know, I do my best to find out exactly where a photograph originates and, where possible, get permission to use it. Sometimes this is impossible simply because one image can appear on hundreds of different sites across the Internet, and none of them belong to the original owner, the photographer, the model or [...]

∞ I try to list the sources for all of the photographs that I use, and also try to find the original source in order to gain permission to publish, which is certainly not the easiest of tasks. And this search for sources brings with it, especially with Google, some moments of real humor. You see, [...]

∞ I think I can quite confidently state: no software is perfect. We all have our little pet peeves over this and that, over something which doesn’t quite work the way we would want it to – and which we often can’t alter because the software isn’t Open Source – and that feeling of frustration isn’t [...]

∞ Social Media is considered the future: the connection between companies and their customers; individuals and their families; work and work colleagues. It comprises the traditional web sites, personal and company web blogs, social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter and a wealth of different forums covering every subject imaginable. Social media, in which ever [...]

∞ It is only a few months ago but, for some, it seems almost as if it were yesterday: the largest Internet ranking company Google announced that it would be penalizing web sites which fail to show originality, which are designed only to publish and publicize articles on whatever subject with the intention of gaining advertising [...]

∞ Animal names are the buzzwords in SEO at the moment, not just any animal names, but those which Google uses to name its new updates, its search criteria, its attempts to cut back on bad links, poorly designed and filled web sites and spam or scam sites; the sites which use spam or purchased back [...]

∞ You’ll have seen it more than once, if you’re really interested in Social Media Networking, you’ll have seen it many times: Big Brother. Stories, articles, essays and a whole mess of scaremongering about what happens each and every time you log onto the Internet. Someone, somewhere is watching over you, peeking over your shoulder and [...]

∞ Ever wondered which website the number one in the world is? The two favorites are probably quite clear: Google and Facebook. But who takes the top spot? Well, at the moment they are switching places each day. Hard to believe, but Facebook has managed to get so far, not necessarily just because of the number [...]

∞ Self praise is probably the only praise some people get, even if, and let’s be honest here, this is usually the case, that praise is a little bit over the top. So when I read about Google and their abilities I sometime simply facepalm. A prime example is the Google Blog Search link which is [...]
