Warmest Greetings,

:: Thursday, April 03, 2003 ::

Somebody's trying to pull my leg...or thinks I know something I'm not sharing. They typed in "alienshift" into the Cre8pc search box. Ok, is it a new dance, SEO technique or dang it, should I be scared?

Still attempting to restructure my work day so that I stop breaking my teeth from stress (see blog entry for Monday, March 24, 2003), I pulled back out my copy of Maxine Schnall's book, "What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger". That book, and remembering to breathe, stretch, walk, rest, and get out of my chair at least one or two times a day, really does help.

If you think you've battled the impossible and lived to tell the tale, people like to hear about that stuff. Maxine even publishes personal experiences on her website, and is seeking more. I think you all should write to her (see link above), so I can read about somebody else's life other than mine.

Danny Sullivan has decided to write about blogs. Even better, he shares how to optimize for them in Loving Each Other More: Search Engines & Blogs. Not everyone agrees with his approach, though. What do you think? Sullivan's Blog SEO

Seems as though the consensus is everyone likes my new avatar I put up on April Fool's Day in Cre8asiteForums. It inspired other guests and Moderators to put up new ones too. My favorite is Peter DaVanzo and his mugs of beer. Forum guests also miss our April Fool's logo, with the Tribbles....

It's just so hard to please everyone, all the time.
