Muskblog: Making the Internet better since 1995

When I started blogging I didn’t give a lot of thought to “Optimal WordPress Taxonomy”. I’d probably never even heard the word “taxonomy” when I started blogging. When I started blogging, WordPress didn’t even have tags, now years later I have to invest considerable time and effort optimizing my WordPress taxonomy…

Just like the weekend before, I spent too much time in front of my computer appeasing the Googlebot, or at least the powers behind the Googlebot. Apparently it is necessary to be popular or at least prominent in search engines to be successful…

After I and others found a use for Google+, Google took away authorship and then they took away Google+. I only have so much time for online social networks, the one I use the most because it works well on my iPhone is Twitter. I hardly used Google+ because it is just too much of a Johnny come lately social network with no killer feature…

I’ve spent a lot of time reading Google Analytics documentation both official and unofficial this week, so much so that I joked I should put “ninja” or “guru” on my resume as that is so much more professional than my middle name…

I lived in Nuremberg Germany for a couple months while working on an ill fated revision to ZooPlus.de. This was during the dot com boom / bust so I worked a lot of hours and didn’t get to enjoy living in Europe much. I did travel on three weekends, once to Paris, once to Luxembourg, and once to Prague. On the way back from Prague knowing my time working was coming to an end I asked myself, if I could go anywhere in Europe, where would I go?
