Warmest Greetings,

:: Thursday, June 12, 2003 ::

Patience, dear Prudence.

Google in a Fog Quote: "Some have noticed that things at Google are a little wonky lately. New pages haven't been added to the main index in months, the entire update for April has been thrown out, Google has deployed some new algorithms, and backlink data is weird and out-of-date."

A test of user patience >>> Designing Web apps? Don't commit without client input This IBM article is a good find for introductory usability material, but print it out and grab your reading glasses first.

Experience the difference >>> Search Engine Marketing vs. Search Engine Optimization by Jill Whalen, of HighRankings.com.

Last heard at Cre8asiteForums >>> "I have yet to see an ignorant pig." (see Dirk's latest post to Enigma.)

Is having GoogleGuy in your forum worth the headaches? GoogleGuy Q&A

Gotta a SEO/SEM Blog? eMarketing Blog Directory.

And lastly, I saw this yesterday and forgot to mention it. I usually hate forum splash pages, but Chris Ridings proved me wrong. SearchGuild has one that warms my user-oriented heart.
