Walking Eddie Cat Project
The Walking Eddie Cat Project is my effort to help stop the criminlization of the homeless. Most of us don't
know anything about what is going on with these laws and city efforts, because we are not homeless and these efforts don't really affect us. The laws are passed quietly and then
hammered down on those who have no voice, and no resources to make the rest of us aware. The project itself is more of a support effort to insure that these laws are not only
tested, but that those that are passing them and pressuring for targeted enforcement are made aware that there are those out there with "voices" and "resources" and we don't mind
taking a few months or even years out of our lives to see that these laws are given a true acid test.
The Lies of Google Trends
The Lies of Google Trends
by Glenn Hefley
I just got off the phone with a client and from our conversation I've become aware of just how misleading Google's Hot Trends area can be for those
who are new to SEO thought patterns.
Google Trends is an interesting tool for SEO work. It allows you to compare different search patterns to see what is more popular. For example, if I wanted
to compare World of Warcraft , vs Dungeons and Dragons, I would
type in a search and Google Trends would then show me a comparison chart.
Google Trends also offers a Hot Trends area. The description of this area is cited from the About
page here:
Hot Trends reflects what people are searching for on Google today. Rather than showing the most popular searches overall, which would always be generic
terms like "weather," Hot Trends highlights searches that have sudden surges in popularity. Our algorithm analyzes millions of web searches performed on
Google and displays those searches that deviate the most from their historic traffic pattern. The algorithm also filters out spam and removes inappropriate
material.
For each search, Hot Trends shows related searches, a search-volume graph, and the top cities. We also display news, blog, and web results to help give context
about why a search may be appearing on the Hot Trends list today. Hot Trends is updated hourly. You can also choose a date in the past to see what the top
Hot Trends for that date were. read the rest of the story :
The Billion Dollar Hide and Seek Game

The Seekers
Let's pretend for a moment that there is no place to hide on the Internet. That no matter what you do, or who you are, your tracks always lead right back
to you and your various ID's on the network. Whether these ID's are email boxes, IP addresses, street addresses or your company, there is no way for you to
hide or alter the records of where you have been, or what this hour's personal interests may have taken you in today's travels.
Feel comfortable? Don't worry about it, most intelligent people would not feel comfortable with this state of affairs.
Having nothing to hide does not equate to casual consent for privacy invasion.
The Hiders
Now let's swing our mythical perspective pendulum to the other extreme of the spectrum. What if the opposite state of affairs existed? No matter what was
attempted or how a server connection was configured, there was no way to track you at all? This would include your emails, your web site visits, your searches,
your forum posts, even down to how many times you viewed the same web page.
Are you okay with this cyber environment?

How do I ... Fix My Computer!
If you are looking for Computer Answers and Advice, D-A-L.com is a great place to check out. The forum area has several knowledgeable
people who are serious about answering your questions. I've posted a few answers in there myself, as well as writing articles for them, but to be honest, the
forum tech guys were so good that it seemed rather superfluous for me to try to keep up with them.
