What are you searching for?
It’s always a trip to see what people are searching for when they end up on your blog. I’m going to post a few recent examples of how people found my blog:
Using Google Blog Search: searched for “cute girls snapshots flickr” (bet they were disappointed!)
Using MSN: searched for “toilet paper/urinals”
Between the “cute girls” and the “toilet paper” I think the search engines have got me all wrong. You will *never* see any cute girls on this blog. As for toilet paper… well, I still believe guys who don’t wipe after they pee are Dirty Dicked Breeders.
Windows Woes
I just checked out my blog on Windows using Internet Explorer, and the new “Exposed 2.0″ design looked awful on it. If you’re using Windows and/or Internet Explorer, you probably weren’t able to read my blog over the weekend. But I have adjusted the code to be functional on IE now.
So I’m kind of embarrassed, because I hate to put out bad code. As much as I hate Internet Explorer, I do want my work to look good on every platform. So that part of it does suck.
On the other hand, I can’t pass up the opportunity to bitch at Microsoft a little. The coding on my blog looked fine on every other major browser. Alternate browsers are built around today’s code standards and are intelligent enough to decipher my CSS code and properly display my blog.
Your product (Internet Exlorer), on the other hand, constantly fucks up good code. It’s always in the headlines for new vulnerabilities. I really feel it’s completely worthless. And that’s exactly why your market share is dropping every month. More and more people are realizing better browsers are out there. And they are making the switch.
So, again, if you visited my site using IE this past weekend, I’m sorry that it didn’t display properly. But on the other hand, you really should consider switching to Firefox. It’s a great browser, free to download and better than any other browser that exists today. Better yet, buy a Mac.
The Joy of Macs
How could I go on blogging for a little over 3 weeks now and never mention Mac – the other love of my life?
In short, it is the absolute best computer on the market today. It costs more upfront, because it’s better in the long run. If you already own a Mac, you know what I mean. If you don’t own a Mac, I know you’ve thought about it.
I don’t care if the majority of the population uses Windows. I’m used to being a minority. Many of those people only use Windows because they are scared to try something better. And the remaining people will never switch because they are stubborn, they like dealing with viruses, spyware, and hackers, and they don’t mind frequent crashes.
Visit Apple’s newly re-designed Switch page. It does a beautiful job of explaining what makes Macs so much better.
