I’m a do follower

Filed under: Business Lessons • Comments: None

When I first started blogging everyone told me that the best way to get the name of my site out there was to leave comments. I had no idea that the nofollow tag was automatically inserted into most comment links. This meant my well thought out comment wouldn’t get any link juice.

Well, I’ve decided to remedy that, at least on this blog. Now, if you leave a certain number of comments, the nofollow tag will be removed from your link. Just please take into consideration that I will delete any comments that aren’t relevant such as “nice post”. It’s true, my post is probably nice, but I’d like to give links to thoughtful, relevant commenters. Here is a great blogroll of sites that do follow.

Just Once

Filed under: Lessons • Comments: 1

I watch Murder She Wrote a lot. I just like it a lot better than modern day crime scene shows that are too graphic. The plot is usually the same. The police arrest the wrong person who is a friend of Jessica’s. In order to prove their innocence J.B. Fletcher must find the real killer.

However, just once I would like the person the police originally arrested to be the culprit. That way we’d be expecting another murderer & then Jessica could do her whole confrontation thing & reveal that the real killer is already in jail. This would save time for her to import wisdom such as cooking facts, relationship secrets, & the best places to get Barnes and Noble coupons. No one would ever see it coming, well I could because I wrote it, but everyone else would be surprised.

Iron Chef vs. Iron Chef America

Filed under: Lessons • Comments: 1

Honestly, I prefer the Japanese version of Iron Chef even though I have to read the subtitles to understand words that sound like Ogio. I don’t even recognize most of the food that is used on that Iron Chef. Iron Chef America is easier to watch but the original Iron Chef is much more dramatic.

I guess it’s because of the culture. On the original Iron Chef, honor is on the line if someone loses. On Iron Chef America all of the bows & respect just seem so fake. Which do you prefer Iron Chef, or Iron Chef America?
