Raven is Now a Super (SEO) Hero!

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009
David Harry of Reliable SEO decided to flex his artistic muscle and created The League of Awesome Optimizers! It includes a motley crew of people in the industry, including Lee Smith-Bryan and myself, fused into The Raven! In a twist of fate Jon and Lee were forever fused together with the Raven tools software as one and transformed into… The Raven! Needless to say, we were excited about being a super hero, but much like a wish to an evil genie, we were unpleasantly surprised to find out that we would have to be fused together in order to fight ...

Despair, Inc. Gives Honor to TweetStalk with T-Shirt

Monday, June 8th, 2009
It’s always nice to learn that your jaded, sarcastic distraction creation has inspired an equally misanthropic company like Despair. Despair recently added what may be their best product yet, the Social Media Venn Diagram T-Shirt. As you can see in the picture, TweetStalk is highlighted as the merging of ADHD and Stalking. We’re so proud!

What To Do During The Twitter Maintenance Hour

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009
I logged on to twitter this morning to discover that the site will be down today for one-hour for maintenance. “Tomorrow, Wednesday May 13 we will be continuing the database maintenance work we began last Friday. We will be taking all Twitter services offline for one hour beginining at noon Pacific. We are begining this work earlier in the day to ensure that we have the full resources of our team to respond to any problems that might arise. Thanks for your understanding.” I had two initial reactions, apparently 57 million dollars of VC money did not buy them spell check and what ...

7 Things About Jon Henshaw You Probably Didn’t Know

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009
So Jeremy has tagged me and now I get to tell people things they shouldn’t know about me. Before I get into my 7 things about yours truly, I would like to preface with, “I understand if you don’t find anything I’m about to say the least bit interesting.” I can say that with confidence, because I share your boredom. I would also like to say, that no matter what people tell you on the street, I am full of hope…angry, angry, hope. If you don’t believe me, you can bite me. Oh, and if you ever use any of ...

No Lip Service (Instead, Lip Balm) From Care2

Thursday, December 11th, 2008
Matt from Care2 was kind enough to send us a giant bag of lip balm! I’m not sure what kind of message he’s trying to send us, but we’ll take anything that’s free, including lip balm. Inside, the lip balm says, “Simple ways to make a difference every day.” The outside cover says “Lip Service” with a no symbol over it (thus saying “No lip service.”) With this much lip balm, our lips won’t be as dry as chip until at least 2011. Thanks Matt!

There Is No Rex Davis, But He Does Want Your Money

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008
We recently received an automated message in our voicemail from someone identifying themselves as Rex Davis. The voice said: This is Rex Davis this is not a sales call, have a "responsible" adult call me at 800-363-0102. Being the curious bunch, we decided to call them to find out what this was all about. Oh, and we also decided to record it! One of my favorite parts of the exchange is when she says that Rex is on the phone. Then she later tells me that there is no Rex. Nice! They ended up being a collection agency called CCR. For the record, we ...

Songbird: That’s One Gassy Bird

Monday, December 8th, 2008
Most people have heard of Songbird, an iTunes alternative that’s based on Mozilla and embraces open formats. In fact, In the Jungle recently showcased 10 things Songbird can do that iTunes can’t. However, what most people don’t know is that Songbird suffers from chronic flatulence. This can be seen throughout their blog, where almost every image of their mascot is farting. Apples give it gas Guitars give it gas It’s even inspired by gas Eating sushi gives it gas Frisbee definitely gives them gas Hang gliding gives it gas Juggling chainsaws gives it gas Shaving its feathers gives it gas Watching one of their own split in half gives ...

Stalk, Don’t Follow (On Twitter)

Friday, November 21st, 2008
Sitening unveiled a fun side project they started earlier this week. It all started with this inspirational tweet and then went horribly wrong when we decided to actually build it! In about four days as a side project from our regular day-to-day client work, we created TweetStalk. Now you can stalk people on Twitter without having to follow and notify them.

Email Spam Imitates Fake Life With ASCII Art

Monday, September 29th, 2008
Straight off the heels of Pam’s Dwight Shrute’s ASCII portrait (from The Office in case you’re too good to watch TV), comes ASCII spam. I’m not suggesting that email spam has never used ASCII, but never so ambitious as this. Even the URL is ASCII, making you work even harder to buy Viagra or Cialis illegally.
