One day after I gave my thoughts on Google’s Caffeine architecture and the Mayday Update, Google announces that the Caffeine architecture is now fully implemented. They give some nice explanations of why they did this massive change and also I think they gave some additional insight (for me at least) as to how they worked the old architecture. I always had a sense that they were doing things in layers… Read More »More traffic changes seen around the web
Most people who visit here probably have no idea what SEO even is. Well, at this point, almost no one visits here anyway. I’ll make another post sometime about SEO and my history doing SEO work. I’m currently semi-retired. Nonetheless, I continue to follow the news and trends with some interest. Google Caffeine is the new architecture Google started talking about in August 2009. In and of itself, it wouldn’t… Read More »Google’s new infrastructure
I just noticed it today. A funky smell when I got into the car. I don’t think it was there this morning, but it was definitely there when I went to run some errands at lunch time. Now to try to figure it out. Yesterday evening the little F’rs did eat some chicken nuggets in the back seat but I don’t think they dropped any. There was one or… Read More »Seinfeld solution
While I found this article giving a scientific explanation for the way that accupuncture causes pain relief interesting, I realized how happy I am that I didn’t complete the MD/PhD programs I nearly attended. The researchers gave lab mice sore paws by injecting an inflammatory chemical into their paws. They then proceeded to do acupuncture on the mice by inserting needles into an acupuncture point in the knee above the sore… Read More »Complementary medicine studies
I’m wondering, if I get pulled over in Arizona and the police says, “Papers”, and I respond by saying “Scissors”, do I win?
I am a fan of Netflix and have always thought the instant download option is very cool. It works great when I’m watching a movie by myself (for which I rarely have time). The instant download doesn’t work well when wanting to watch a movie with other people. It’s just not the same looking at either a laptop screen or computer monitor instead of a television. I figured there must be… Read More »Getting my S-video output working
Dr. Freud: How long have you been sober? Mr. Holic: I haven’t had a drink in 6 months. I’ve kicked the habit. Dr. Freud: Looking at your record, you’ve been in jail the last 6 months.
So, my AT&T Uverse phone service just went out. It’s been on the fritz all day, initially incoming calls still worked, but not outgoing. I’d have no dial town for a few seconds, then get a dial tone. I’d then make a call only to get a fast busy signal. Now, I get incoming calls for about 5 seconds before getting disconnected. Not good. So, I call customer support which… Read More »Phones out
I’ve always thought that the whole organic food movement was a bunch of hippie BS. I thought that there was no real proof that pesticides really made it into our diet, or that feeding animals with steroids and antibiotics was going to cause us any harm. I also justified my views with the idea that just because something is labeled “organic” doesn’t mean it truly is. However, a concerning article in… Read More »Healthier Fruits and Vegies
Getting a case for your high tech phone is an important decision. Well, not really, but how else do you want me to start a post on this topic? So, when I got my Touch Pro 2 last December, I went with the case that people suggested was the best – the Seidio Innocase. The case fit perfectly and has worked great. Until today. I’m using my phone as I… Read More »TP2 Case Cracked
