Hacking Disqus

No video for this post today. It's just pure geekery that just cannot be made any less geeky or any more interesting by staring at my talking head. Have I mentioned before that I <3 Disqus? I think maybe I have. And a big thanks to the disqus guys for adding in a quick feature request I had that allowed me to pull my own disqus...

Hammered by Spammers - Time for DoFollow to Go

I've been thinking a lot about this recently. Currently my comment links are set to Dofollow. I've always thought that it is the least I can do to thank people who take the time to comment on my posts and contribute. But I'm getting slammed by spammers. Until a few days ago, this blog was PR6. A PR6 Dofollow blog? Spammer heaven! ...

Excluding Posts from Your Wordpress Feed

"rabbit rabbit". Happy March. While it's not my primary blogging subject, I've got a major subculture here around the subject of DIY electronics repair.

Blog Commenters: White, Black, and Gray

I am in complete agreement with the no-nofollow/dofollow movement in the blogger community. I've had the dofollow plugin on this blog a few years now. I love getting comments, and I think that an outbound link is the least I can do for someone who has spent time on a meaningful reply to one of my posts. There's a growing trend,...

Affiliate Summit West Overload and Aftermath

Reflecting on Affiliate Summit, I had a great time. For me, having worked in this industry for so long, it is a highschool reunion, except fun. I met dozens of old friends, and made some new ones. What is truly amazing to me, however, is the people who were (apparently) there, but I missed completely. I was at pretty much every event,...
