Good. Got something to read.
i think you might look into my blog weekly for something to stumble.
I read the post about blog comments immidiately cause I am getting a ton of spam messages lately. Not people trying to promote their blog by leaving a useful comment but just plain automated spam.
Didn’t really get the issue with comments and SEO… I always thought comments are fantastic for SEO cause every comment is more content for that page. Relevant content. Spiders love content, fresh content.
The date thing he was holding against comments sounded more like a crazy person speaking sry but that is what I think about it.
Thanks for another great mashup!

This was an interesting article “10 Reasons To Delete Your Facebook Account.” An outstanding array of articles that cover many niches. Great Fetch Kristi!
Are you going to delete your account, Frank?
New from Ari Herzog @ Online Media Strategies Why Social Media is a Stupid Term and How You Can Help
I found that interesting too. Not that I plan to follow through, of course!
Till then,

New from Arafat Hossain Piyada 4 Working tools to check PageRank of all inner pages of websites or domains

New from Gautam Hans @ Blog Godown Learn More about People Who Contact You (Wordpress)
A suggestion for future ff indexes: Include some commentary why you like the links, whether a sentence or more. Or, maybe include such commentary for one link in each section or something to better explain to me why you like them so much to share.
New from Ari Herzog@Digital Communications Strategies To Everyone Who Thinks I Am So Darned Busy
Enjoyed the how to generate ideas post, interesting. As for the rest, will check out those that apply to my interest:) BTW, thanks for the mention and have a great weekend.
New from DiTesco Google AdSense Webinar – Free AdSense Seminars (Update)
It is amazing how prevalent plagiarism is. I was checking one of my clients work the other day and found he had added a huge article to his site. So, I of course checked to see if it had gotten indexed yet. Of course, I found someone almost immediately that had scraped him, but after a little more poking around, I found that it wasn’t even original in the first place. We are going to have to have a sit down and discuss duplicate content and plagiarism next week…
New from Steve@Lift Chairs Understanding Senior Arthritis
I’ve just found this blog – and I’m glad I have. Some very useful titbits of information – thanks for researching and sharing.

Thanks for the compliation! It still amazes me how many articles are written about Twitter… I mean, there ain’t that much to it really!

Huge compilation and great information, that should keep me busy for a while
Another great resources mashup! I was intrigued with 10 reasons to delete your facebook account, the reasons make sense but I will not delete my fb account just yet. I again enjoyed your photography/digital art mashup.
Another great roundup! I find myself checking out these roundups and I tell myself I’ll only spend a few minutes looking, and then an hour later I realize I still have half of the page to go through, haha. Thank you!

Thanks for sharing all these links – quite a few I haven’t had the chance to read yet so now I can go through one by one (looking forward to the ShareASale Review).
Also, thank you kindly for including one of my posts

New from Murlu Time Management For Successful Bloggers
Just wanted to thank you for that “blog comments are not roadkill” article – it was very well-reasoned and has been bookmarked. There’s a few bloggers I’ve known who’ve shut off comments, and wondered why I found that outright insulting to me. Granted, the few I’ve known who’ve done this aren’t the most adept socially, but given the fact there’s a line of argument saying that shutting down comments is reasonable, well I’ll just say it helps to have an article around that turns that argument into mulch.

I adore this post so much that it sparked a bunch of ideas for me – ideas unrelated to the content too. Wild eh!
I need to spend way more time here!
