Google Page Rank

Posted on Thursday, July 28, 2005 in Meta, Religion, Technology

Google defines us… it is our savior, our religion. If anyone is serious about blogging the most important thing is google page rank. Read up on what it takes to make it on google.

  1. I didn’t read the whole article, but I plan to. I think this is a good place to discuss this, because I’m not sure this issue is ready for the list-at-whole, but it is a great topic. While a google page rank is veryily important (and I don’t have any hot keywords for you here… yet), I think it’s really important to pay attention to sites like bloglines.com, technorati.com, and (though I haven’t really looked into it much yet) del.icio.us. The basics of what I’m thinking: these sites are updated hourly (if not more frequently) via the pinging device in the internal software of Wordpress (and Blogger, et al)(not currently enabled, but will be when we go “live”). It’s kind of crazy when you look at these sites, because they’re looking at the article ‘tags’ that are going out, and these sites are swamped with queries from people who have given up on google for new stuff (on google, new content from not-huge sites gets crawled every 2 weeks or so). If from there we can get linked to on other sites, it’d definitely improve our google rankings…and the circle devours itself.

  2. Here’s a weird tech prob: I have a Windows Media Center laptop. It’s pretty cool, except for one bizarre problem: IE decides to render everything at approximately 1.5% of the appropriate size. I think I’m writing pretty cool css to render to, but I can’t figure out why everything on the right gets cut off a bit. Obviously, I’m trying to make sites for everyone, but I can’t figure out how to write a page for this stupid glitch, let alone figure out how to turn this annowying feature off.
