Actual Proof We’re Still Passing PageRank
Posted on January 25, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging | Leave a Comment
It was almost exactly one month ago that I discovered I was still passing PageRank despite being Googlesmacked for writing paid posts. A Google employee was quick to jump into the comments and inform me that I was completely wrong. I had neither the knowledge nor the resources to run a genuine experiment, but luckily Brian Combs of Apogee Search does and he did just that. You can read his results in his blog post: PayPerPost Blog Links Still Impact Google…

User Video Hits Prime Time TV Big Time
Posted on January 14, 2008 - Filed Under Movies/TV | Leave a Comment
As much as I enjoy big budget motion pictures, there’s still some carnal appeal in seeing actual videos made by real people. Obviously I’m not alone in this feeling or video sites wouldn’t be springing up all over the internet. Not an hour goes by that I don’t stumble across some new user created video content on the web, even when I’m not looking for it. As my regular readers know I recently acquired a video camera. Z also got…

The Grand Wiki Experiment
Posted on January 5, 2008 - Filed Under Technology | 1 Comment
It’s no secret that I am very much not a fan of Wikipedia. This has surprised many of my associates who know that I’m an anarchist, but don’t yet truly understand what the term means. They believe that, because I’m an anarchist, and the strongest of free speech proponents (for example, I refuse to have any moderators on the forums that I run, trusting the community to police itself) I should therefore be passionate about the free-wheeling openness of Wikis. The reality…

BlogRush - The Widget That Wouldn’t Die
Posted on January 4, 2008 - Filed Under Adventures In Blogrushing, Blogging, Technology | 1 Comment
Part of the Adventures In BlogRushing Series - Previous in series
Well, it’s been almost two months since I last wrote about Blogrush, but it seems the story is not over yet. Check out these two screenshots from Clicky (my web analytics program)-

They clearly show that despite my removing the widget, requesting removal, mocking them incessantly and, finally, being kicked out of the program, BlogRush is still listing Philaahzophy in their widget and even sending me the occasional traffic…

Dotster Customer Service - A Big Fat F
Posted on December 24, 2007 - Filed Under Technology, Webmastering | 1 Comment
Part of the Domain Registrars Series - Previous in series Next in series
Almost seven years ago I wrote a glowing review of Dotster focusing primarily on their service. Over the years since domain registration has become highly competitive and prices have dropped dramatically, but I’ve always stuck with Dotster.com as my primary registrar. I’ve also highly recommended them to friends and argued that their higher prices (currently $15.25/year) are worth it. Most people won’t ever need service from their domain…

Don’t Think Online Universities Grant Real Degrees? Think Again!
Posted on December 19, 2007 - Filed Under Education | Leave a Comment
I’ve written here a few times about the possibility of earning a college degree online. Every time I get comments and/or emails from people telling me that no one has any respect for online universities, so they’re a waste of time and money. Well, tell that to Teresa Chaulk. She was recently named superintendent of Lincoln County School District Number One in Kemmerer, Wyoming and earned her PhD through the online degree program at Capella University (which I wrote about just…
