Carnivals of Sorts

I guess that might be a [...]
What is so Cool about Cuil?
Evidently there is a new exciting entry in the search engine world, CUIL. I have looked at it and found that it does have copies of my old Financial Web site, but does not have Canadian Financial Opinions hooked into it yet. I sent them an e-mail with updated pointers and descriptions of both of [...]
Sometimes One Link is All It Takes

Page Rank 2.0 Again
Page Rank Up
Canadian Financial and Consumer Opinions page rank seems to have raised up to a 2/10 in Google’s eyes, which is a start given it was at 0/10 for a very long time (due to unknown reasons). What caused this? I have no idea, I have been cleaning up the mess of cross-links (over [...]
Spam, spam, spam, baked beans, spam, spam and spam

Wordpress 2.6 With Minor Hitches
Wordpress 2.6 Upgrade
Went off mostly without a hitch, I use the Wordpress Upgrade Plug In, but the important thing is to update that plug in BEFORE you try to do your Wordpress 2.6 upgrade and that seems to make things run MUCH smoother.
I upgraded this site first and the only hitch ended up being that [...]
