Where Should I Host My Videos?
Posted on November 25, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging | Leave a Comment
I’ve finally come to accept that one can’t run a blog without sharing videos at least on occasion. That’s just the way the web (and society in general) has gone. Not only are there just cool videos to share, but many online marketers are releasing product information exclusively in video format and advertisers are now seeking bloggers to produce videos for them . For example, the post before this on. This is, in fact, what has lead me to my…
Google Allows Government To Stifle Innovation
Posted on November 19, 2008 - Filed Under Living Free | Leave a Comment
A few weeks back I came across this really cool post over at the official Google blog. It seems their newest building in Mountain View lies across Permanente Creek from the main building, which also houses the famed Google cafeteria.
So, being engineers and innovators some of the employees built their own zip-line to cross the creek rather than take the longish walk down to the government supplied bridge. 
When some of their coworkers were uncomfortable with the zip-line (despite numerous improvements) a…
Google Adsense and SEO Experiment Concludes

Hello again 
Did you miss me?
If any of y’all have wondered where I’ve been, I’ve been around, just keeping my paws off the site in order to see what would happen. Specifically, I was curious how my complete absence for a month would effect such things as my standings in Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs) and my Google Adsense revenue. Results were both positive and a bit distressing, but I’ll get to my reaction to them in a few moments.

Is StumbleUpon Traffic Worthless? Dispelling The Myth
Posted on September 27, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging | 12 Comments
Welcome to the very first edition of Social Saturday here at Philaahzophy. This semi-regular serious will appear whenever I have some new discovery, ide, or news to share about the world of social bookmarking sites: StumbleUpon, Digg, Reddit, etc.
By far, the most common complaint I see about social bookmarking site StumbleUpon is that the traffic “doesn’t convert”. In this case, “convert” means that the visitors don’t buy the product being advertised and/or click through any of the ads on the page, thus…
Grease For My Squeaky Wheel
Posted on September 24, 2008 - Filed Under Hosting Review, Top Hosting Center | Leave a Comment
Part of the Top Hosting Center Series - Previous in series Next in series
As y’all know, my squabble with my webhosting company blew up over the last few days. It flowed not only into email but on to two other blogs in addition to this one as well. End results - one guy, John Raul, apparently lost the sponsorship of his blog (or possibly his job, or possibly nothing at all); Top Hosting Center’s CEO, Eric Vanier, is…
Still Think Google’s PageRank Means Something?
Posted on September 7, 2008 - Filed Under SEO, Technology, Webmastering | 1 Comment
According to Google-
PageRank Technology: PageRank reflects our view of the importance of web pages by considering more than 500 million variables and 2 billion terms. Pages that we believe are important pages receive a higher PageRank and are more likely to appear at the top of the search results.
Could someone please explain to me, then why Google thinks that this crummy blog ranks a 5 out of 10? According to CheckPageRank.net (see the screenshot at right or run the search yourself), Yewpp.org “earned”…
