Interesting article at Search Engine Watch.

Isometric pixel niceness

Thursday, September 9th, 2004

Sorry if this is old news, but I’d never seen DC Flyby, which is of all things a US government site. It’s a slice of some pretty nice pixel art. And large.

msnbot

Tuesday, August 31st, 2004

It’s a bit like the annoying kid at school who everyone tells to push off, but they keep coming back just in case you want to talk to them. MSNbot, on seeing my “bugger off” in robots.txt, deserved thanks to its full-on approach to spidering that comes in somewhere between a DoS and a handy [...]

“Free Internet Telephony that Just Works”

Friday, August 13th, 2004

It’s all gone pear-shaped!

Friday, July 9th, 2004

Now, this I like: PearPC is officially the awesome-est thing I’ve seen for a fair bit. And me about to buy a bloody iMac just to test sites on… Anyways, it certainly does the trick for Safariing around and all that stuff that you do with a Mac.

¿Hablas Espanol?

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2004

Search Engine Watch has an interesting article entitled Search Marketing & the Spanish Speaking Internet discussing the worldwide Spanish-speaking market and its potential value, focusing primarily on Latin America. It’s a little short if you don’t subscribe, but does manage to balance the positives with the realities of doing business in this as-yet largely untapped [...]
