Transformers news to your homepage

UK and Europe’s biggest Transformers website (or as Devid Beckham might say, “The biggest European website in the World”) now has the option of subscribing to its news via RSS.

This means you can get all important Transformers news direct to the RSS reader of your choice, so you’ll never need to miss out on news such as the Optimus Prime iPod speakers or the UK gun law outlawing imports of Megatron.

Go there now, and subscribe to more news than meets the eye.

Is that you Gwen?

I was out in Cardiff last night, in the City Bar, when I spotted a girl that looked just like Gwen from Torchwood.

Gwen

Obviously, it was her. Her real name is Eve Myles, and she was out in one of my locals. Wicked.

I didn’t want to approach her though, that’s so uncool. I did get a smile from her though, my night was made.

George’s Google Bomb Defused

Google has just altered its search algorithym to negate the effects of ‘Google Bombing’ on certain phrases, most notable the term ‘Miserable Failure‘ that famously brought up George W Bush’s profile on the White House website as the #1 result.

Google say in their webmaster blog that they’ve only handled a handful of Google Bombs in their ‘automated’ system. Thankfully, my Google Bomb for Darren Joslin remains intact, so I won’t worry about Google’s actions causing me problems anytime soon.

Don Murphy is a TWAT

Way back in June 2006 the movie producer Don Murphy announced on his forum that I was a c*nt and that he’d close down my website www.transformersthemovie.com. Some 7 months later, and quite naturally, he has done nothing.

You see, as I tried to explain to the short, fat walrus at the time – TransformersTheMovie.com has been approved by Paramount, and indeed supported by them to help promote the Michael Bay movie Transformers, due out on July 4th. He didn’t understand this, and said my site would be shut down. His legion of ‘stooges’, or morons who like to hang on his every word, rallied to his flag as always, baying for my blood with cries of ‘bye bye monkey’ and the like.

But again, TransformersTheMovie.com is still there.

The funny thing was, no matter how many times I explained it to them, they ignored the facts and proceeded to launch a vitriol against me calling me a theif, a c*nt and such forth – insisting that Don was the messiah and I was the antichrist. My site would be shut down.

Well, to all you ‘stooges’ and to Don himself, come on you wankers – let’s have it!

A prick up my ass?

Some prick only went and rammed into the back of my car last night.

There I was, driving along through the country lanes, following some tosshole towing a car at an average speed of 15mph, who refused to pull over and let the stream of several hundred cars past him (total of cars has been exagerated for dramatic effect) when some knob jockey slams into my ass.

Quite a jolt too, but somehow my car doesn’t even have a scratch on it. His Fiat had a severly squashed headlight, but mine looks just like new – bar the several layers of caked on dirt of course.

He was nice enough in fairness, lucky it wasn’t an X5 or a Landcrusier I guess. Then I’d have had some marks on my car.

The Lazy SEO Manifesto

This is the code of which I live my life by, courtesy of Tropical SEO.

I pledge to strive wholeheartedly to make the most amount of money while doing the least amount of work possible.

I pledge to develop passive revenue streams that maintain themselves using automated systems.

I pledge to outsource anything that possibly can be outsourced. My core competencies are thinking, planning and strategizing, and my time spent on those activities will yield the highest ROI.

I pledge to have a secretary/personal assistant and/or mistress to take care of pesky details.

I pledge to only give my phone number to very close associates. Everyone else will have to email me. I will compulsively check my email throughout the day, but it may take me up to a week to answer one, especially if the reply requires effort on my part.

I pledge to use Digg, Reddit, Delicious and the like as a shortcut to link building. The Digg community is a bunch of annoying little wankers but I will play the game until my sites all have TrustRank out the wazoo from dozens of successful link baits.

I pledge to get dressed only after the noon hour. Getting dressed implies putting on pajama pants or sweats instead of boxers only. It does not necessarily imply the presence of a shirt.

I pledge to extend myself outside of the SEO realm only into even lazier and more defensible areas. Namely, domaining.

I pledge to waste at least two hours a day on Threadwatch, WebmasterWorld and Bloglines. Not because I’m learning anything new, but because I’m bored.

I pledge to be a Lazy SEO.

So much anger, so little time
