Dismissing Google PageRank Rumors

Posted on November 2, 2007 - Filed Under Blogging, SEO | Leave a Comment

I first came across some rather frightening Google rumors at Google Lady’s blog, yesterday. Then, in my hunt for further verification I came across the original post at The Google Rumor Mill, from a couple of weeks ago. I’m not familiar with the history of either of these sites, but considering the post (identical on both sites) starts with “During a recent meeting with a Google engineer it was revealed to me…” Just like an urban legend the lack of…

Real Life ‘Shark’ Fights For You

Posted on November 2, 2007 - Filed Under Reviews | Leave a Comment

The CBS television show Shark has become one of my favorites. It features James Woods as a hot shot defense attorney who “changes sides” and starts working for the Los Angeles District Attorney. But if you’re being taken to court in Los Angeles you probably don’t want James Woods defending you and the last thing you need is some hot shot in the D.A.’s office. Luckily, there’s Kestenbaum, Eisner & Gorin, LLP out there to fight on your side. These…

$50 Review Philaahzophy Contest Update

Posted on November 1, 2007 - Filed Under Aahz, Blogging, Contests | Leave a Comment

So far, this contest is definitely a bust. I’ve now read every review entered in the contest and, frankly, will be ashamed to give any of them a $25 bonus, not to mention the $50 prize itself. Remember, folx, the idea here is not to generate links, but to get feedback about Philaahzophy itself. I managed to get a PR of 3 without playing any “linking games” so I have no desire to start doing so now. I just want to…

Speedy Profits From Subvert and Profit

Posted on November 1, 2007 - Filed Under Earning Online | Leave a Comment

I introduced y’all to Subvert and Profit a couple of months back. They went through a rough time in early October and I feared they were gone forever. But they came back stronger then ever and I’ve received 13 assignments from them in the last two weeks. Today I reached payout and they sent off my PayPal payment within about 3 hours of my request. So it doesn’t seem like they’re crumbling too fast despite all the assurances from bloggers…

Makeovers Aren’t Just For Women Anymore

Posted on November 1, 2007 - Filed Under Technology | Leave a Comment

The folks over at MakeoverSolutions seem to be aware of the metrosexual movement since they have a full range of options for male makeovers, but that awareness doesn’t seem to have extended beyond their excellent virtual makeover application as that’s pretty much the only place I was able to find a male place on the site. It was still a blast to play with, though.

Step one is to upload a headshot (or mug shot) of yourself to act as a…
