The 2008 1st quarter pagerank update’s winding up. Many siteowners found that their rankings didn’t improve- I’m one of them despite seeing site linking and human traffic triple since last December.

CES 2008: Part 1 Intro and Being Green
I just got back from CES this year, and while everyone is probably quite tired of CES news, I figured I would put a little different spin on it. No huge LCD stories, blacker blacks, BluRay/HDDVD, or any of that stuff. Just the CES as a whole and little gems of the good, [...]
