I’ve read a lot on TrustRank, but I’ve yet to see an analysis of it that I felt confident in because it seems each explanation is more complicated than it needs to be. If Google asked me to design a TrustRank algorithm, here’s how I would do it:
First, PageRank is not as much an invention [...]
Is it any surprise that a person who would extend a special invitation and sponsorship to someone who has been charged in United States Federal Court with fraud and conspiracy under the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act should turn out to be a thief himself? Birds of a feather flock together.
The above is [...]
One of my favorite discussion topics these days is globalization and how the Internet is allowing all manner of knowledge work to be outsourced to 3rd World countries, and the wealth being created in both countries that become involved in these type of commerical win-win transactions.
A common response from 1st World conversants is that the [...]
Of the three pension house we stayed at in Iloilo City, I like Charter Pension House the best, it’s in the Sarabia Manor Hotel & Convention Center Complex, where there are several restaurants and businesses, a school tutoring Koreans in English, and a netcafe. While Charter was a bit old, showing a bit of the [...]
Friends, employees and clients ask me why I don’t blog about SEO. The easiest answer to that would be that the answer is a trade secret, but that’s also a cop-out.
I don’t blog about SEO because:
I do SEO on a daily basis, it’s a grind.
While SEO is very much my life, I have a life.
I [...]
My favorite Filipino dish is Kinilaw, which is raw fish in vinegar, mixed with an assortment of raw veggies that may included, peppers, onions, tomatos, ginger, radishes, and perhaps others. Mostly I eat Kinilaw na Tanique (Blue Marlin) or Kinilaw na Malasugi (Swordfish), but at MO2 Restobar I saw Pasayan Kinilaw for the first [...]
This is a much nicer pension house than Eros, and only P700 (~$14) a night (granted, that’s 40% more, but it’s still not much, and less than the P900 to P1050 we’ve been used to paying). Highway 21 is located next to the Sarabia Hotel, where there are several good restaurants. They do have hot [...]
Eros Pension house has a pretty good location, but the place is pretty old and dingy. The price is hard to beat at P520 per night for two people, but I really did not care for the place too much and cannot recommend it. It’s not that the place is dirty, it’s just [...]
There are very few metered taxis in Bohol, at least so around Tagbilaran, the capital of Bohol, and Panglao Island, where we stayed, on Alona Beach, at the Lost Horizon Resort hotel. Instead of taxis there seems to be a cartel of private cars that have fixed prices for going from place to place. [...]
One of the better pension houses, though not particularly remarkable. The room we stayed in was small, with a double bed, but we were also offered a much larger room for the same price, though it had two single beds, with pull out beds underneath, for the same price. They had a special [...]
