    Don't Put All Your Eggs In One Basket vs. Focus On One Method

    Where does one draw the line? We repeat these two mantras: One correctly suggests that we shouldn't waste all of our investment of time and energy|money on one project, as the well could dry up and you'd be back at square one. It's smart to look at various potential money making platforms...

    Why is .net more expensive than .com?

    I'm renewing some domains, and it's $10.69 + $0.18 ICANN for .com while it's $11.48 + $0.18 ICANN for .net and $11.48 for .org. Is this to stop people from purchasing .net and .org in addition to .com? I'm just trying to figure out without looking into domaining news what the deal with the...

    I inadvertently rate a bunch of threads

    So, I've found that when I go to preview post and then submit the post, even if the box is not checked, I rate the thread. If you notice, there are a ton of 5 star threads kind of recently, and almost all of them I've posted in via preview post, so I "rated" them...but I didn't really.(I...

    The Forgotton Purpose of Tiered Links

    Targeted Traffic. It's not just about PR. You're still obsessed with "link juice" instead of actual visitors, and this obsession gives Google entirely too much power. The reason for the obsession to that mental-keyword "link juice" is due to the fact that it's easier to make an...

    Post Your Favorite Flags {Civic|Military|Business|Personal|Team}!

    Only catch is it cannot be a flag of your own country. The study of flags is called vexillology, and it serves as an excellent lesson in design. Flag of Bavaria This flag is awesome. Look at it. Your mind wants to make it a parallelogram, not a rectangle(yeah, I know...

    Your Favorite Classical Music For Inspiration

    When I'm working, I can't listen to music with words. *Actually, if the language in the song isn't English, it's ok. Latin, for example. There's something special about an old language* Techno is ok sometimes, but that gets me more amped and ready to get moving than thinking about the plans...

    Akamaihd.net - What Are You?

    First time noscript saw akamaihd.net was on facebook a while back. It used to be facebook.com and fbcdn.net(or something close) that you needed to allow in order for FB to function. Now it's facebook.com and akamaihd.net. Ok, whatever. Then as time went on, I started seeing it on more sites...

    [Suggestion] Only 1 Green Rep Bar = Faster Thread Loading Times

    The major time-delay in loading threads is powering up everyone's Green Rep Bar like we're powering up our health bars or entering a boss fight. Let's have 1 Green Bar that shows the Rep Flavor Text if you mouse hover over it, but there is no need for more. I gladly sacrifice my bars after 1...

    3/18/13 Check Your SERP Rank/PR/Backlinks

    Is this the update? It was a whole lot of nothing. Plenty of things moved around, but in the end, nothing happened. It was zero-sum(for my sites at least). For example: 1 site's domain of mine, completely whitehat just writing about stuff, lost PR. I haven't backlinked once. Yet, the...

    3 Women Who Have Helped Ruin The World

    Because I am a lover of equal treatment, men have been blamed for too long for being the sole cause of global instability. It takes two to tango. Here are three little stories: Helen of Sparta/Troy: Semi-mythical figure we all know a lot about. The name given to Greek culture is called...

    BHW User Acts With Unexpected Maturity

    This is more a public adulation than a real thread. If I can be obnoxious in public, then I guess I should be kind too. I asked(read: pestered) fbrcold to change his avatar from the one I was using. It wasn't a notoriety thing as much as the avatar just means a lot to me. I know my avatar...

    We Are Shaped By Fate, Just As We Shape It

    Disclaimer: If at the end of this video and post you feel discouraged, cold, alone, ask yourself: Is freedom and knowledge worth it, or is it better to live without thought? And for some flavor text, from wikipedia: "In a little while you will be alone in shoreless space, to wander its...

    The Second Delphic Hymn To Apollo

    The trend that will return after this cultural fad of extreme electronic music (house,dubstep,...electronica) will be a sharp return to a very old acoustic tradition with soul (spiritual, not blues or country folk christian gospel), and will go further back than the guitar. The lyre and koto...

    Traffic Travis and Market Samurai Problems

    Started up Traffic Travis and all of a sudden it's telling me to enter my registration key. I did. It didn't work; unable to verify. Decided to then get on Market Samurai, but a pop-up stated it's having troubles connecting to their servers and to google's adwords servers. MS won't even show...

    New Proxy Harvester in Scrapebox 1.15.39

    ...makes me want to cry. 1 step forward, 2 steps back... This might be the first version of Scrapebox I roll back to a previous version. Grievances 1. Can't add sources to find proxies from clipboard to Harvester (F***) 2. Harvester is almost a second thought as it's the third option in...

    MS SEO Results TOO Localized Now

    I was checking backlinks and got the bright idea to use MS, which I haven't touched in months, as a third reference point... ...except when I looked at the SEO Competition results, all of a sudden the pages that were returned are INSANELY localized...and with horrible PR as the top results...
