First off let me let out an obligatory shameless self promotional link… Arizona Search Engine Optimization (SEO)… Ok, I got that out of my system, so let the ramblings begin!
First off, I just want to say, that search engine optimization just flat out sucks. Here’s why, all these little tricks, and tactics like the ones I pulled in this article for trying to manipulate… er I mean, tell the search engines that I matter, that I should show up in their results, that I should belong in their club , by linking to my seo keyword rich page. Unless your Wikipedia or something, that doesn’t require any other shleps like you and I linking to them (Yes, the link to Wikipedia on this page is totally unnecessary, as they don’t need my help), you need to set up blogs like this, and give it goofy seo titles (like the one I gave this post) for hopes of getting google to recognize us. Google don’t care about us, they just care about bloggers going out and writing a bunch of seo text, and linking to who ever and what ever for figuring out who is popular and who isn’t, and not based on the actual quality and workmanship of the website itself.
Well, anyway, I was reading/lurking Slashdot (/.) one day (because that’s what I do… */me pushes glasses up and grins*), at least I think it was Slashdot, or I guess it could have been somewhere else, anyway… I ran into a happy page about what it would be like if Google had to Optimize for Google…
I seen what these guys put together, I started laughing my ass off, because when it was all said and done, it was freakin’ Yahoo… lmao, I figure I could throw an SEO link out there to Yahoo, because lord knows they need it (I’m not a religious Arizonan by the way (doh… I did it again: note the double parenthesized text… damn I’m l337)).
Anyway, I’m so sick of making ugly SEO titles, being careful to match my happy keywords with my content, etc… in order to compete with those blood suckers… er n00bs, er other web developers (No seo link for you guys sorry) with their invalid XHTML Transitional doc types (as opposed to our Valid XHTML Strict Doc Types). I mean, if I were running the search engines, that’s the first thing I would do, any page that didn’t validate, would get dropped below all those pages that do. Well, I guess this page would be screwed because the editor doesn’t generate valid XHTML even though it says it does, unlike our Content Management System WYSIWYG Editor… There I go again, another shameless plug:/
I just hope the Google gods are merciful.
Slacking On the Workouts
2008-05-06
I guess for my very first post (well, I guess my very first official post), I want to talk about slacking on work outs. I guess it’s because it’s a subject I know a lot about, seeing how I get a lot of practice at it. For while, I was working out hard, pumpin’ iron, running on the machines, eating my eggs, and drinking my protein shakes… Then all of a sudden, I stopped, I got lazy…, well I guess I didn’t get lazy, I guess I more or less just started playing more golf (In Arizona of Course). Anyway, I guess that could be considered exercise, but it’s not quite what I need to do.
See, I have goals, I have plans, I need to get my muscles all beefed up so all the hot chicks drool all over me, that way I can turn them down, because I got a hot chick of my own, and she wouldn’t be too happy with me if I happened to slip and fall into one… well, I guess she wouldn’t be too mad if I fell into Stacey Kiebler or something, because she’s so hot I’m sure she would go for it if she had a chance… LMAO. Anyway, I told her she could have a go with Brad Pitt if she could and I wouldn’t be mad.
Anyway, to give my belly a helping hand, I decided to pick up bowling again, and quite honestly, I find it quite humbling to be in the presence of so many great athletes. So I got me a new ball (and I think I already want another one… I also have a similar problem with golf clubs, computers… etc…), and I seem to be doing ok at it, but I don’t think it’s really starting to help out my tommy… er tummy… just not sure if it’s helping it out in the right direction.
Anyway, the point of the story is, I need to get my ass back to the gym before I get flabby again. So if anyone can hook me up with some motivational pep talk to get going to the gym, that would be great.
