Posted at 11:48 pm | Filed Under blogthropology, lackofmeds, psychoblogging
So, it started out as a normal day on the internet, just like any other. Catch up on emails, check some rankings, see how AdSense is doing… nothing whatsoever to alert me to the fact that that day would be the day that I was destined to run into the Information Age’s version of [...]

Finally, PROOF that Google does, in fact, own Feedburner!
Posted at 9:31 am | Filed Under Google, On The Ball-ness, blogthropology, coding, lackofmeds
Maybe it was just denial that made me reject the reality of Google buying Feedburner, but as of today I guess I can no longer do this. It was real, it wasn’t a dream, the proof is in the pudding, as they say.
It looks like a large number of people today lost all Feedburner subscribers, [...]

Why Are Digg Employees Stalking Me…?
Posted at 1:06 am | Filed Under blogthropology, lackofmeds
Of course it could just be general paranoia, but does it seem strange to anyone else that Digg employees would be taking such a special interest in my blog? Especially since the post they seem to be fixated on is 2 months old?

Posted at 10:29 pm | Filed Under Cuttisms, Google, SEO, blogthropology, lackofmeds
I was hanging out over at Matt Cutts’ blog today, where the subject at hand was SEO Tip: Avoid Keyword Stuffing. The discussion centered around a site that was blatantly stuffing keywords on its pages, and happened to get banned by Google. The conversation turned, as conversation tend to do, to other penalties sites suffer, [...]

Even Google Can’t Believe Someone Could Lose $13 Billion Overnight
Posted at 2:49 pm | Filed Under Google, On The Ball-ness, lackofmeds
So I was checking to see if I still ranked from last Thursdays post about Google losing $13 Billion in after hours trading. It looks like Google (GOOG, Google Inc.) themselves couldn’t believe someone could lose that much overnight.

Bush Scheduled To Get Colonoscopy From Nationally Renowned Neurologist
Posted at 12:28 pm | Filed Under On The Ball-ness, lackofmeds, the prez
It was announced today that on Saturday President Bush will undergo a “routine” colonoscopy. It was determined at this time, due to the bizarre events surrounding the president’s desire to axe Big Bird and invade Sesame Street, that perhaps it would be best if this procedure were carried out by a qualified neurologist.

Hot on the heels of Google AdSense checks reportedly bouncing, and as Google heads to Washington to defend it’s recent Doubleclick acquisition (which as we all know, is part of their attempt to buy the whole Internet), it now looks like Google has managed to lose $13 Billion… overnight.

I know, not exactly new (the video is from August 2006), but still worth spreading the word about.

Posted at 5:32 pm | Filed Under Cuttisms, Google, blogthropology, lackofmeds
So, I received an invitation today from the Google AdSense Team. Very attractive subject line, I must say:
Google AdSense Survey - Win $1,000
Followed up, of course, by a direct stroke to my ego:
