Xsara, Diaries of a SEO Dog #9
Lately, Xsara has become quite fascinated with all the realtime podcasting buzz. “I've spent enough time as a listener, time to get my own show,” she told me recently:

In times of financial crisis, good advice is even more expensive than usual. Many dogs are frightened to lose all their fortune. Instead of just watching bones go down the drain, Xsara decides to take her fate into her own paws.
Xsara, SEO dog #7: The day after the pagerank update
Yup, there was a pagerank update this weekend which showed a couple of very interesting tendencies: Google is putting even more focus on the update cycles of a given page, gets stricter with domain pagerank but gives away a lot more juice for deeplinks. Incoming links are of course still the most important factor, but sadly Xsara has been relying too much on good reputation…
Xsara, Diaries of a SEO dog #6
This week Xsara is making an important experience the hard way: even in the world of SEO dog enterprises, human ressource planning turns out to be a crucial factor in business success!
Lord Jeebus vs. Chuck Norris
Today I got invited for an interesting new facebook group: it's all about a so called Jesus: he's a guy invented by some antichrists with the sole intention to mis-credit our true one and only saviour, Lord Jeebus Chuck Norris. So repent, SINNERS – and never forget what Jack Donaghue said about Irish catholics on 30 rock: “There's always the crusing guilt!” On the facebook group page it says:
JESUS save SINNERS.
JESUS told us about LOVE.
JESUS told us about TOLERANCE.
JESUS told us to HELP the others.
JESUS told us about PEACE.
JESUS told us about FREEDOM.
JESUS told us about FORGIVENESS…
lets go this way together.
But while Jesus is walking on water, Chuck Norris is walking on Jesus. Or swimming through land. So shouldn't the intro rather say:
CHUCK NORRIS is his own SON.
CHUCK NORRIS punishes SINNERS.
CHUCK NORRIS told us about MARTIAL ARTS.
CHUCK NORRIS counted to INFINITY. twice.
CHUCK NORRIS told us to SMASH THE FACES of others.
CHUCK NORRIS told us about the dangers of PEACE.
CHUCK NORRIS is FREEDOM.
CHUCK NORRIS reminded us that FORGIVENESS is for pussies…
lets go his way together.

Who let the dogs out? It's happening again! Google, the old dog catcher, doesn't like sold links at all, so Xsara has to cover her trails. But there's something she might have overlooked…
Angry young computer
Not that young maybe… just watch out: in BBC's new comedy show The wrong door lifeless things are not that lifeless:

Nokia sports-tracking virals
GPS monitoring has evolved, at least in terms of spreading the word: the latest Nokia cellphones store training tracks, allow for sharing with friends and enable their users to geotag each picture. Very handsome if you're Pacman and on the run from ghosts chasing you: but what if they use a Nokia guide as well?
