NameCheap Super Weekend Twitter Contest

David — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 08:49:55 +0000

NameCheap is at it again. This time the Namecheap Twitter Trivia Contest is set for 2 days only, this Super Bowl weekend. As usual the hourly prizes are credits to purchase Domain Name Registrations. However, the main prize this time will be a new Apple iPad.

The guys at NameCheap keep refining their game and the new twist is that the questions will not be each hour at the top of the hour but will instead be asked at random times during the hour.

Follow @NameCheap on Twitter to play.

Once Again, Meta Keywords not used by Google

David — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 10:05:56 +0000

I thought this topic was closed a long time ago. Google does not use the Meta Keywords! This has been discussed for years, not sure why only now people are finally listening, probably because we now have Twitter and better ways of getting the information out.

15 or so years ago everyone started surfing, then they started blogging, and of course next came being social.

Barack Obama’s Inauguration will be the Mobile Inauguation. Most mobile carriers are estimating record number of text messages being sent on Inauguration day.

Wonder what the chance of micro blogging and social networks being overloaded is?

My money is on Twitter being overloaded and shut down at some point during the day.

Google Droppng Jaiku?

If this rumor is true, looks like Twitter will emerge the victor in the Micro Blogging sector. And no I am not discounting Tumblr and a few others, but in the real sense of Micro Blogging there were only three sites, Twitter, Jaiku and Pownce.

The reason I said rumor is that I have yet to see an official release from Google stating that Jaiku is dead.

Although it may not be real apparent, the best way to follow topics on Twitter is by using the search page, Search.Twitter.com.

There is also an Advanced Page to help you put together the best search options for what you are looking for, whether it be Words, People, Places, Dates, Attitudes or something else.
