I’m aware the main navigation links are broken on IE 6 Windows. For you IE Win users, until I have time to fix the transparency issues, here’s the About page and the Search page.

Anu told me to use Atomz.com as their search was free. They have some interesting reporting tools, and while it does help me focus the writing of my blog content based on what people are looking for, it wasn’t that beneficial overall. Not only was the crawling of my site a manual process that I had to do, but they had a limit on the number of pages that I was allowed to have their product crawl unless I was a paying member. They then started inserting ads in my search results, but didn’t pay me to host their ads.

Google’s Adsense for search also allows you to maximize your earnings by providing the Google search engine to search your site, but you can customize the appearence of the results, have the google search engine interface be on your page, and utilize adsense in the search results. It appears Google has just as good, or better search query reporting tools compared to Atomz.com.

If you experience any problems, let me know; I believe using Google’s search engine will improve the searching experience on my site.

“No.”

“How about 2 drinks?”

“No.”

“What if I get on my knees, beg, and buy you drinks till the club closes?”

“No.”

“Alright, playing hard to get, eh? What if I go find the hunkiest, most metro-sexual, yet hetero guy here, and talk about how you think he’s hot, thus increasing your chances of scoring a potential interest?”

“Uh… no.”

“I’ll give you a hundred bucks?”

“Tempting, but… no.”

“Bummer… well, I’ll just stand guard here, and ensure any bloke who attempts to even gaze at the glorious countenance that is your presence, will pass the test of appreciation, realizing that you have the eyes that can see right through me, a smell that makes me float and forget what time it is, a …”

“I’ll take a Rum & Coke… just shut up!”

I’m not saying those sayings work, merely that a loving connection with potential could be established is people didn’t fear rejection, and instead made more than one attempt… even 6. Thanks for expanding my self-reflection MediaTemple Credit Card Transaction dude!
