I thank ShoeMoney for recently sending me a 4-pack of his t-shirts. I’m glad to have my children Hayley & Cade model these terrific shirts.

When I fire up my feedreader, Andy Beal’s Marketing Pilgrim is the first blog that I read. Why? Probably because I tend to read my feeds alphabetically and Andy’s blog is the first one in the list.

I'm a fan of Ezinearticles.com. Really. Or, I used to be. As Stoney deGeyter pointed out in an earlier article, their "editorial" controls have become real nitpicky...to the point where they are almost a bad joke. Instead of preaching any more, I'm going to post my entire correspondence with them concerning the submission of my article "The Chattahoochee Hill Country Domain Rush"...a story that made the front page of Sphinn.

When we originally envisioned our networking events, we wanted to add a little value with some search industry news & discussion. We have sinced moved our networking events to Paddy's and they are great, but we can't really pull off a group discussion in a reasonable or fashion. So, here are a few recent search industry items that we encouraged our attendees to talk about. My hope is that you will use the comment feature to further the discussion. Paid links have been demonized recently as Read more [...]

Todd Mintz Interview For the first time in my life, I was the subject of an interview. I had Sphunn Brian's interview of Muhammed Saleem several days ago and within a relatively few minutes of doing this, Brian thanked me and added me as a Facebook friend. We then chatted via IM and he asked me if I wanted to be interviewed about SEO & Domaining and I agreed. The results of that interview can be seen by clicking the link above. It got "Sphunn Hot", so I guess that means that people liked the Read more [...]

"Way down yonder on the Chattahoochee It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie We laid rubber on the georgie asphalt We got a little crazy but we never got caught"... Alan Jackson, Chattahoochee Another in a series of my "Kiss and Tell" Domaining posts... My position at S.R. Clarke gives me the opportunity to read extensively in the areas of real estate and construction. Every story gets read with "domainer radar" on and occasionally, my reading has led me to purchase domains that I perceive Read more [...]
