I just received my copy of Naked Conversations in the mail from Amazon.com.
Randy Charles Morin sent it to me for sending him the best suggestion for the month of April for his new service ResumeBay, which hasn’t quite made it out of pre-alpha yet.
Randy’s still looking for good input, so send him your suggestions to [...]
If you’re a blogger trying to get traffic flowing to your site, Randy Charles Morin is your friend. Link to him, and he will link back to you. And that generates lots of click-throughs to your site. Just check your referrer logs, or sign up for ReefeRSS to see where those clicks [...]

Lifehacker highlights the new local search engine Yokel, which lets you search for products and stores in your area. You can sort the results by relevance or distance.
Relevance seems to be pretty good. It previews some of the products found at each store that match your search.
Only one problem with the distance part. [...]
On the advice of Alec Saunders, I enabled tagging in my blog using the Jerome’s Keywords plugin for WordPress 2.0. Then I went through my posts and got all Chris Pirillo on the tags.
Jerome’s Keywords plugin has a lot of nice features and good documentation. It even provides a great function for generating a tag [...]

I got my beta invitation to try out Farecast, a new service that helps you plan flights (thanks TechCrunch). For the beta, they only provide info on flights from Seattle or Boston, but my home airport is Seattle so no problem there. This service does at least two things better than Expedia and [...]
Tim O’Reilly responds to the “Web 2.0 Conference” controversy with a well thought-out, balanced view of the matter. If I jumped out in front of the bandwagon, I apologize.
I still think we need to come up with a better term for the phenomena that are reshaping the web every day into something more social [...]
I couldn’t resist Randy Charles Morin’s offer to provide some free advice about Adsense, so I e-mailed him. Randy responded with lots of good ideas. Now I’ve got to set aside some time to digest what he proposed and start acting on it. Naturally, this comes when I’m under a programming deadline [...]

In response to Randy’s suggestions, TDavid offers some counter-balancing observations on monetizing your blog. Good advice, which I’ll keep in mind as I make changes to this site. His most sapient point: content is king. I don’t ever want this blog to become merely an advertising platform. That’s not why I [...]

Well, I’ve had a chance to ruminate on the blog design advice I received from Randy Charles Morin and TDavid, particularly with regard to ad placement. Trying to balance my goals, I ended up with what you see before you (if you’re reading at my site). Here are some highlights:

I’ve often thought that if there is a God, he must have a sick sense of humor. Thanks Randy.
Congratulations to Chris Pirillo for reaching his weight loss goal. Now the tricky part: maintaining it. I’ve managed to maintain for the last two years, but previous iterations were not so successful. I’ve found that both diet and exercise are important, and it’s easy to gradually replace good food and habits with those that are [...]

It occurred to me on my morning run today, as random ideas often do, that my recently published WordPress widget for creating a tag cloud needed an additional feature.
For some reason, when I started tagging I almost instinctively avoided using multi-word tags, even though they are supported by the tagging plugin that I use. [...]
Ameliorations:
So many people are so afraid of experimenting with their food that they buy cook book after cook book just so that they don’t make something the wrong way.
Too true. The same could be said of programming. But I won’t.
Instead, I’ll relate my own favorite cooking experiment. As frequent readers will know [...]

One of the first things I liked about the Firefox browser is its ability to detect feeds and let you subscribe to them by simply clicking the orange icon in the location bar. Ever since I migrated to FeedDemon as my reader, though, I haven’t been using that feature. Well, now I can [...]
Scott Adams: In this theory, our brains are nothing but rationalizers for a reality too complex to understand.
Very good, but I’d take it one step further. Rationality, i.e. abstract thought, is a purely human faculty. It evolved in us to help us mirror and predict the world in which we live, and for [...]

As pointed out by Randy, tomorrow is 6/6/6 (no matter whether you use the American or European date forms), so I thought I’d gather a few links on the topic of the number 666:
Wikipedia has a general discussion of both the mathematical properties and historical ideas concerning the number. As usual, they cover a [...]

It’s a beautiful day here on Bainbridge Island. Sunny and 75 F.
Got KPLU jazz streaming in the background. All is cool.
No sign of Satan yet. Maybe he lost his Internet connection and can’t get to Google Calendar to see what day it is. Oh wait, maybe he’s still on the Julian [...]

Wow, first post of the day. I bet you thought I had been raptured or something.
So far in the short history of this blog, this page has received by far the highest number of page views — about five times that of any other post. Why is that?
Duh — I’m giving away a [...]

For the last several weeks I’ve been taking advantage of the earlier sunlight by getting up at 4:45 AM to take Halley for our run. It’s added an hour to my day — I just wish I knew what happened to it. Seems like now I’m busier than ever. And then, this [...]
