SEO Truth – Apparently I’ve Written A Book On SEO

Hello!

As usual I’ve been spending a horrendously long time without writing anything on my blog – and for that I apologise. However, I have spent some of my time writing an SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) handbook, covering the importance of next generation techniques and practises.

I’m sure there are those of you who are all too familiar with the increasingly backwards approaches used by a few ’special’ SEO agents and individuals out there and perhaps for you this will merely reinforce what you already knew to be true. For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about -then please read the book and have a good laugh at yourself for being such a silly.

You can order print copies of the book – just not yet… more details on that coming soonly! I’ll be publishing online chapter by chapter (honestly I have finished writing it, but as an SEO, if I didn’t serialise it then it would look bad).

The preface, and chapter 1 available after the jump.

Sunbeam Is Your Search Engine

Taking a look at how Sunbeam is polishing up in the final stages of development. Read on for more details on the search engine that runs from your own desktop, and knows how you think.

Microsoft Are Back On Top With Surface

I have just watched the most exciting user interface video yet seen. It’s not of the forthcoming iPhone nor is it any kind of Apple product. This is Microsoft Surface and it promises a revolution in how we interact with our computers and mobile devices, I’m completely blown away by not the technology behind the system, but how well it’s used to produce a product that will potentially devestate Apple’s market share.

Happy Monday!

I just thought i’d drop you a message here on this lovely Monday. First off – hello to all the new readers, many of you from reddit and stumbleupon, and thanks for reading.

Secondly, I’m working on two new articles at the moment:

• The New Science of Inbound Linking
• Practical Implementations of Semantic Technology

The first is looking at the new ways to generate links to your content and create interest in the wave of social networking that is Web 2.0 (at least that’s what they’re calling it, buzzword: synergy), and the second is talking about other ways to use semantic technology with the web other than just creating yet another search engine.

I may not necessarily release them in that order, and they may be released in multiple parts as I’m trying to work on getting things out in more readable bitesize chunks that won’t rot the very important neural pathways of my users. Apologies to the families of those now looking after vegetative ex-readers :/

Finally, I’m working on putting together a video podcast of a type. It’s mostly going to be me talking arse about tech (which I love and can talk arse about for a very long time) but there may be an occasional nugget in there where I get drunk and talk about technologies I really shouldn’t yet. The flat’s kitted with an HD camera and mics now so at least the picture will be clear even when I’m not.

Anyway, the fresh content will start to appear tonight/tomorrow so keep checking back. Have a good week all!
