Or, alternately, you're
now the proud user of a proper 'blog' with your own unique (sub)domain. LJ are giving some bollux due to a vulnerability in, um,
FireFox, but that's not relevent. Why is this
really important? Pagerank and Google.
( What they've done to your username and links )Implication? Well, us LJers have a tendency to link to each other a lot, which means that when we do from now on, the person we link to has their pagerank with Google go up. It's a perpetuating circle over time.
So, anyone want to propose our first Google Bomb? For an example, try
jelly bellied flag flapper; that one was set up less than a week ago, they can filter through in 2 or 3 days.
Update:
( More on googlebombing and how it works )So, do me a favour, exercise in silliness. Copy this into a post or onto any web pages you may have access to:
<a href="http://matgb.livejournal.com/77989.html" title="Google bomb">Google Bomb</a>
and, if you've got some spare links in your links list, put the link (
http://matgb.livejournal.com/77989.html) in there titled 'google bomb'?
Just a thought exercise, there are some pretty weighty sites up the top there...
