How To Online SEO and Internal Linking

First off, my mentor Alex Jeffreys always says to provide extra value in the form of good content…so here we go.

The first thing I did was to change the “privacy” setting to prevent the site from being crawled by the search bots until I have added some content in the form of original posts. We will turn this back on after we have some content in place. Here is how to get there:

At a minimum, you have to have a Contact Page, an About Page, a Privacy Policy Page, and a Site Map Page. The site map page is created with a free plugin, Google XML Sitepmaps.

I tie these all together for easy navigation in a “catergory” that I title “Website Information”. Although these are titled as “pages”, I publish these as “posts” for a very specific reason. I want to use my “pages” for promotional information in the future, and the “posts” will always be used for publishing content and articles (the journal function and aspect of a blog).

Will Tone of MSNBC Change w/Comcast Merger?

clipper's remarks: I have a pretty basic Comcast package and ever since I heard people complaining that they removed the MEssNBC, I found it up on stn.#128, away from the more "regular" channels, so I'd advise one to scan their sets, you may still have it. (I can't believe I'm helping anyone find the thing
Anyway, I think it would be too obvious for Comcast to make it any more scarce. Maybe it's just as well to keep those nutjobs (Olbermann, Matthews, Maddow,etc.) all in one place where they think they've really got something goin' on. Otherwise who knows what kind of hell they'd raise with their whining.

Comcast and NBC Universal: The Rise of a Content King?
Published:Oct 14, 2009 || Duration: 00:21:25
Philadelphia-based Comcast, the largest cable company in the U.S., has made a bid to merge its operations with NBC Universal -- home to the NBC television network, Universal Studios and popular cable channels including Bravo, USA, CNBC and MSNBC. If the deal goes through, it would create a programming giant, allowing Comcast to produce and distribute content throughout its cable networks and on web sites such as Hulu, which is partially owned by NBC Universal. Steve Ennen, managing director of the Wharton Interactive Media Initiative, spoke with Wharton marketing professor Pete Fader and Ken Shropshire, professor of legal studies and business ethics, about what the deal could mean for content distribution and for consumers.

News Corp Sites May Be Removed From Google

News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch has suggested the company's online newspaper pages – including FoxNews.com, whose parent is News Corp. — will be invisible to Google users when it launches its new paid content strategy.

He claimed that readers who randomly reach a page via an Internet search hold little value to advertisers.

When asked by Sky News Australia's political editor David Speers why News Corp has not stopped Google from finding its content, Mr Murdoch replied: "I think we will."

Rupert Murdoch Sites that "Steal" Content

As Rupert Murdoch talks about how he wants to cut off Google, while claiming that aggregator sites are "parasites" and "stealing" from him -- and that fair use would likely be barred by the courts, it seemed like a good time to examine at least some of the sites that are owned by Rupert Murdoch that appear to aggregate content from other sites and which rely on the very same fair use argument.

let's start with the flagship Wall Street Journal itself. It integrates its own "aggregator" with headlines and links to other stories. For example, on the WSJ's tech news page if you scroll down, you'll find a bunch of headlines and links to other sources -- without permission:

how about Fox News itself? Yup. It's got an aggregator as well. Here's its Politics Buzztracker that aggregates and links to stories from a variety of different publications, including the NY Times, the Washington Post, MSNBC and others:

Google says Murdoch stories can be taken off

clipper's remarks: Rupert is really struggling with the concept that he doesn't control the world. How many people who buy his newspapers are computer literate eg the laptop (with access to most news sources) on the train, or the newspaper on the train?

Clip Source: www.smh.com.au

Google said on Tuesday, in response to threats by Rupert Murdoch to ban the search engine from listing content from his news empire, that any company could ask to have stories taken off.

In an interview in Australia, Murdoch accused Google of stealing stories from News Corp newspapers for the Google News service, and said he might ban them once he introduces charges for the papers' online editions.

Google said it was up to individual news organisations to decide whether they wanted their stories listed on Google News, and there were "simple technical standards" that would remove them if they wished.

"News organisations are in complete control over whether and how much of their content appears in search results," it said said in a statement issued in London.

"Publishers put their content on the web because they want it to be found, so very few choose not to include their material in Google News and web search. But if they tell us not to include it, we don't."

Rupert Murdoch says he will remove stories from Google's search index as a way to encourage people to pay for content online.

In an interview with Sky News Australia, the mogul said that newspapers in his media empire – including the Sun, the Times and the Wall Street Journal – would consider blocking Google entirely once they had enacted plans to charge people for reading their stories on the web.

In recent months, Murdoch his lieutenants have stepped up their war of words with Google, accusing it of "kleptomania" and acting as a "parasite" for including News Corp content in its Google News pages. But asked why News Corp executives had not chosen to simply remove their websites entirely from Google's search indexes – a simple technical operation – Murdoch said just such a move was on the cards.

FBI: "No red flags" on Maj. Hasan

Maj Hasan was noticed by the FBI in December 2008

The FBI says that a US Army major suspected of killing 13 people was not part of a "broader terrorist plot".

Maj Nidal Hasan was noticed by the FBI in December as part of an unrelated inquiry by the Joint Terrorism Task Force, but did not raise concerns.

Investigators said his communications with another person were in line with his job as More.. an army psychiatrist.

The FBI said it had "no information to indicate that Maj Hasan had any co-conspirators or was part of a broader terrorist plot".

'No red flag'

"Because the content of the communications was explainable by his research and nothing else derogatory was found, the JTTF concluded that Major Hasan was not involved in terrorist activities or terrorist planning," the FBI said in a statement.

Content was of a social nature as well as "religious guidance".

They did not include the sort of threatening or inciting language that would have triggered an investigation

Rupert Murdoch, chairman and chief executive of News Corporation, is considering removing his newspapers’ content from Google’s search index.

“I think we will [remove our websites from Google’s search index] but that’s when we start charging,” he said.

He added: "The people who simply just pick up everything and run with it – steal our stories, we say they steal our stories - they just take them. That's Google, that's Microsoft, that's Ask.com, a whole lot of people ... they shouldn't have had it free all the time, and I think we've been asleep."

Mr Murdoch, who has been vocal with his negative views of Google and its effect on the newspaper industry, said his stable of newspapers, which include The Times and The Sun, could be taken off Google’s search index when his plan to implement paywalls comes into effect.

Sleep Amnesia: Why Do We Forget Our Dreams?

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 18:03:21 GMT

clipped by: kkcapricorn
clipper's remarks: The Mind in Sleep: Psychology and Psychophysiology mentions dream kinesthesia as a potential suspect. It happens when we lose the physical movements in our sleep as soon as we physically move after waking up (such as when we reach for the alarm clock). Another possibility is that our memories are formed through repetition and finding connections to other parts of our lives. So when dreams are especially unique (read: crazy) or too undefined to be relatable, it’s harder to tie them to real-life events and remember them.
Christof Koch, points out the incongruity between our brains’ being so active during REM sleep (the deep-sleep stage in our sleep cycles) and only vaguely recalling dream details when we awaken.
brain waves that roll through during deep sleep may impede information processing. This is a more scientific approach to the brain-recall conundrum.

Clip Source: www.care2.com

We have dreams every night, whether we remember them or not come morning. According to Scientific American, we have five dreams per night on average, which translates to 1,825 dreams per year. Why we don’t remember all of them is less clear.

Unless we make a point of writing down our dreams’ content immediately upon waking, chances are we’ll lose at least half of it a few minutes after we start our day

Freud’s theory of repression

when we don’t remember certain aspects of a dream, it’s our brain’s way of blocking out wishes or longings that we’re not emotionally equipped to handle

Alternatives to Freudian Fear

Salience theory, for instance, postulates that we forget some dreams simply because they’re not interesting enough; if nothing remarkable happens in a dream, it’s less likely to stay with us when we wake up

Strumpell, a dream analyst during Freud’s time–suggests that dream content isn’t organized enough for us to comprehend its events in waking life

Email marketing is not just about writing good email content. Sending emails without any proper planning is similar to inviting disaster. Every day people receive so many emails that your email where you are promoting your product or service needs to be “seen and read”.

Grab the attention

Select an attractive attention-grabbing subject line that will also act as a headline. Special attention should always given to your email’s subject line. Remember that no matter how good your email content is, as long as your recipient does not open the email, your marketing campaign remains unsuccessful. And to make him open the email your subject line should:

Be to the point
Talk about the email content in one sentence
Not be too long and ambiguous

Your subject line should not be more than 45-75 characters.
