Re: How to enjoy historic Waikiki hotels even if you can’t afford to stay there

In your photo there I used to lay out in front of the Royal Hawaiian - in front of that small wall on the left. They'd rope it off for hotel guests and I'd slide under the rope like I owned the place. Met some amazing people right there that actually had rooms.

Great post - thanks for memory... aloha!

Misha! I love it... We're still 5 months away, but we found out she too is a girl. We asked a 10 year old at one of our favorite restaurants what our new baby should be named and she told us, "jasmine". I said - wow, that's cool... and we wondered how she knew the English for it (she's Thai). My wife told me in Thai it's "nong malee". Cool enough for me. So - Nong Malee won't be until end of October or thereabouts.

Really looking forward to this - as I'm sure you were! When is the first video of Misha?? Wait, is there any video of your wife yet?

On Oahu I usually climbed a mountain ridge or valley trail. The ridge trails are best - for the views they offer of Kailua side - Olamana range... spectacular views. Sunday would be spend at the beach - Bellows or somewhere in Waimanolo barbequing ono kind grindz, listening to reggae and snorkeling or bodyboarding all day... oooo wee I miss it.

Sweeeeet. I need to find a place like this in Thailand to work... unfortunately it's too hot to be outside near the beach most days. Enjoy...

I can sell soupsoup my soupspitter.com domain if she wants. A soup spitter is a nobody that spits in the soup just to shake things up. They have nothing going on their own lives necessarily and just want to relieve themselves into the cornflakes and watch what results.

Gary, I wouldn't give people any forum for voicing their negative attitudes with how you present yourself. If they don't like it - they can get the hell out. 7 or 8 putzs do not make a quorum.

If you're watching all Gary's videos and reading his articles and following him on Twitter and yet you just can't take the crush it attitude I don't understand what you're doing with your time watching all that Gary's doing. I'm not sure I get it.

Gary is all about the attitude that nothing can stop him. He's fueled by it. He appears to live by it. He fuels us with it. If you're not fueled by it get the hell out and follow some feel good fahker you can give your hugz to.

Ok, I'll stop making so much sense.

Re: Gary Vaynerchuk - Emotion is a dangerous pill when doing business I...

I love this topic... I ask, and I'm frequently asked whether I'm ok with something during a conversation through email. People are sensitive to needing to check in because with email, chat, and everything else that doesn't involve my face looking at your face - things can go wrong for one or both parties emotionally.

For myself - business is business. The one key for me to keeping emotion out of it is that I never count on something happening. I'm detached from the outcome of nearly every interaction because I realize that this one interaction doesn't mean - game over. It means, this interaction over - at the worst. There will be another chance. A better chance if this time it doesn't work out in my favor.

Remain detached from outcomes and you'll find you're a lot less emotional, and a lot more optimistic about what can be done after what looks like an apparent failure.

There's always time to CRUSH IT later!

Re: The Changing Face of SEO

I liked the visual representation. If we really put together a mindmap visual image of all the factors that go into SEO it would be incredibly large.

With all that's going on now that Google could use as factors influencing rank the game could change - revolutionize - by the end of this year if Google wanted to move that fast.

You think they do? I'm thinking they can't.

If they change to fast and add too many new factors, or increase the weight of these new factors that are already in the algorithms then there are going to be a lot of unhappy site owners. Millions? Sure, at least.

Just because you're ranked in May 2009 doesn't mean in December 2009 you're going to be in the top 10 on page 1 of Google. It's scary how fast things could change. I'm guessing it will be slow - and they'll give us all a chance to adapt.

Anyone guessing differently?
