For those who are not familiar, it's important to have all duplicate content point to a single, "canonical" edition of the content. Requests to index.php and requests to www.seomoz.org/ have the same content even though they have ...
Anybody getting good traffic from StumbleUpon.com? That site first started getting my attention a few months ago while examining my logs. I didn't think that it would be a serious source of traffic but the referrals have gone up and now I am avera...
Back in the days before the web, many of the MS Windows bundles games had "back to work" buttons that would open up a blank spreadsheet document on top of the game in order to "hide" a worker's activities from perusing bosses doing their walk around. Hilarious...

The v7n...etc. contest is in full swing, with Google and Yahoo! reporting respectable numbers of results in 5 figures. Sadly, the linkdomain searches to the new domains that are ranking aren't quite accurate (I hope). Either that or domain names really do carry a lot of weight in helping to rank.
