How To Protect Your Lunch

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008
This sandwich looks pretty disgusting doesn’t it? Who in there right mind would eat a sandwich with blotches of green mold? Not me, for sure. But alas, this is just a visual trick. I’m not sure how Sherwood Forlee did it, but I can only assume that a green marker was involved. He seems to have commercial plans for this bag. He writes on his Anti-Theft Lunch Bag page: If you’re interested in getting your hands dirty with these bags, please send an email to skforlee@gmail.com and I’ll let you know when they become available. There is of course one problem with this solution ...

Go Science! I Survived the Large Hadron Collider You can buy the t-shirt at Neatorama’s Online Shop. Update 1 Well, it looks like I spoke too soon. Michael Salamon is reporting on his worst fears being confirmed. He just received this email: Hello, I am from approximately two months in the future. On 10/22 at approx 2:34am CET a tachyon field failure in the main resonating ring of the LHC causes a “temporal blowback”. Shortly thereafter, ...

SEO Squawk – Episode 0

Monday, April 21st, 2008
We’re starting a video podcast, but we’re not off to a good start. We don’t even have a proper RSS feed setup for it yet. I’m so ashamed, but not as ashamed as I am for posting this video.

Google Street View Cars Forced to Paint Road Lines While Driving the Streets of Nashville

Monday, March 31st, 2008
By now, most people are familiar with Google Maps Street View feature. Street View shows you a 360 degree view of any address you enter. Google accomplishes this amazing task by using an army of specially outfitted vehicles that drive around and take pictures of every street in the city. The Street View feature has received tons of praise from Internet users, but cities like Nashville, TN are up in arms. “These Google cars ride up and down our streets, sometimes 12 or 5 times back and forth. They’re making pot holes, causing wrecks and costing our city millions of dollars,” ...

Create 404 Pages That Market Your Website, Not Turn Them Away

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008
From a user experience point of view, 404 pages are not something you want to see. If you reach one, it means the content is gone or has been moved. Also, the average Internet user has no idea what the “404″ actually means, even though that’s usually the message they see. For webmasters and search engine marketers, 404 pages can provide a valuable opportunity to market your website, instead of frustrating your visitors. However you decide to make your 404 page, keep these principals in mind: 404 Page Principals for Search Marketing Try to make the page look similar to the rest of ...

Hot Trend for 2008: Bookmarking and Tagging the Social Bookmark Tag Page on the Same Social Bookmark Network

Thursday, December 20th, 2007
The Internet almost came to a halt tonight when I spotted a del.icio.us bookmark of the exact same bookmark feed I was reading. If I had infinite time on my hands, I could have clicked on that link over and over, and gone nowhere fast. Fortunately, I came to my senses and made a screenshot instead.

Anatomy of a Professional Link Request

Thursday, December 20th, 2007
Admit it, you suck at sending link requests. When you send a link request, you say something like, “hey dude, check out this link, link exchanges are cool too, and if you want to be cool you should link to me.” You’re pathetic. We’re all pathetic. Which is why we could learn a thing or two from the uber PR people at Guerilla PR. Watch and learn from the masters From: xxxxxxxxx@guerillapr.comSubject: Post Idea for xxxxxxxxxxDate: December 19, 2007 6:45:38 PM CSTTo: xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.com Blah, blah, blah, the usual From: To: crap.

Google Adds “Unicorns Horns” to Their Calculator

Tuesday, December 18th, 2007
Collin Winter, an old Sitening employee and now Google engineer, alerted me to how excruciatingly cute they are in Googleville. Apparently, in a night of programming madness, they added the ability to include number of horns on a unicorn into any equation. Don’t believe me? See for yourself. Sample Equation

Search Diving on “Live” for Fun, Amusement and Mild Pleasure

Tuesday, December 18th, 2007
What’s the least likely place you would go to find something? Your old girlfriend’s apartment? A landfill? Utah? Actually, it’s not any of those. The least likely place you would go is obviously page 87 of Live Search. Which of course is why you should go there. So let’s get right to it. I will choose a random keyword phrase, and by random, I mean the first thing that pops into my head. pink earmuffs. Oh wow, that’s embarrassing, but search I must. Huh, I found a website called Feministing. So what’s this feministing all about? Young women are rarely given the opportunity ...
