Increasing SEO is a game of patience. You are not going to realize a major change in your traffic overnight. It can take a lot of time if you are new to this. It is no different than having a brick and mortar store.

"20 Essential Social Media Resources You May Have Missed"

Many of us can't hold on to our seats any longer and we are glad that the launch is just one day away. Google Wave has created a great deal of buzz and also promised a lot. Naturally, there are some of us who are already drooling at the sneak peek!

YouTube songwriters, Alan Lastrufka (fallofautumndistro) and Hank Green (vlogbrothers), have joined forces to launch DFTBA, their very own record label, which stands for "Don't Forget To Be Awesome".

I look forward to seeing how it all plays out for Digg. I still see much potential for it. If they just change it to be like a Twitter just for links and make it easy for anyone to post to it, they could get back a lot of users. They do need to reinvent themselves and I think there hype capital from a few years back could still benefit them very much.

An experimental matrix of Web 2.0 mashups.
Usage: Hover the cursor over any cell in the matrix. A small box gives details on mashups for that API combination. Top links in hover box bring you to that API's reference page. Links in body of hover box take you directly to the mashup. Not all combinations have mashups & only those with the 'º' indicator currently have entries. Cells at the intersection of same API (ex: Amazon+Amazon) list any other examples for that API.

Note that there are two views into the matrix: the default view shows only those APIs for which mashups have been added to the database. The second view shows all APIs regardless of whether there's currently a mashup registered. It's big. Definitions: What is a mashup anyway? As always, it's good to check Wikipedia's definition, but essentially a "mashup" is a web-based application built through (creative) combination of data from multiple sources. Often, but by no means always, this data is retrieved by using a vendor's API such as those listed here. (An API? Also at Wikipedia.) Some recent press may also help explain: BusinessWeek's "Mix, Match and Mutate", The Economist's "Mashing the Web". Background: This is an experiment. It is intended to be both a reference point and also a visualization. What you see here today will change both in content and form shortly. I am quite interested in seeing the 'space' in which mashups exist. Clearly, some APIs such as Google Maps, appear to be more widely used than others. UI Issues: Cross-browser support is good but not complete. Sometimes it can b

Some of us may have experienced times where we have wanted to find out the identity of someone spamming our blog site. Here's a fantastic tutorial on how to do just that...
