That's sure bring back memories from the old school...! Love to have one too, but $74 is pretty expensive for a classic controller...

I don't think it is necessary to get such a hi tech tank. But it's always a good spend for those who have spare money... I think normal jar will do with some additional led system. Complicated system sometimes means sophisticated maintenance :)

Re: Are Technorati tags still useful for blogger ?

Ken Xu — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 03:55:26 -0000

I think Technorati Tags has lost its functionality since Wordpress 2.3 that comes with internal Tagging system. So, it's obvious that you won't need technorati tags anymore on your blog these days.

Beside it doesn't bring traffic, it cluster your page. Just simple would to the task without any additional plugins. :)

Re: How social media sites can help you improve search engine rankings!

Well, try ASP (auto social poster) $129. It helps you bookmark your post to 32 (should be more now) social media that really "work". And you have the option to randomize where to submit instead of blazing to them all. Just to be safe and stay on the radar. ;)

Re: Is it advisable to edit your article multiple times after posting?

Ken Xu — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 10:29:33 -0000

Editing is consist of two points I guess. first is to correct something and the second is to update a latest news to avoid creating new post with the same topic.

Well, IMHO... there is no real negative side effect of multiple times editing. Just make sure of one thing. If your blog engine is Wordpress, pay close attention to the Wordpress update services. every times you edited your post, you command Wordpress to "Ping" the Search Engine. And if you edited your post multiple times too frequently in a short time, you will flag the search engine for the "ping spamming" issue and causing the ping server to ban your blog.

You can use wp plugin called "Smart Update Pinger" to prevent this problem. It will only ping the server if you have new post or timestamped post, not an edited post.

That's my 8 cents ;)

Re: Get a grip on your iPhone 3g with a tire tread case from Casemate

Ken Xu — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 04:25:29 -0000

The iFrogz case is better I guess. But this one looks great also, especially the grip of the tires can help you avoiding slipping when in a wet condition (e.g. raining)

NaturesCast is really clever. by using useless stuff as the material to create those cool looking furniture. I can really get an unlimited supply of material which mean a never-ending gold mining. :)

Anyway, thanks for your kind link to HS.

One Word, ROCKS!!!
Awesome point you've made there! Love breath catching one (#5) and #8.

It's very true and I've tasted this one before. I lost lots of my traffic and readership since I off (sick leave - hospitalize)for more than 5 months. Thanks for such an insightful post. Stumbled!
