I find it slightly amusing and a little interesting that in the midst of this Google PageRank debacle we received out first boost in PageRank. We’re now a PR3!
The best part is, we don’t care!
I’ve been telling clients for years that PageRank doesn’t matter. Let me repeat that, PageRank does not matter. Got it? PageRank [...]

This week’s RFP comes a day early because we’ll be closed for Nevada Day tomorrow and I will be entertaining friends in town for the football game. Our state is so super cool, they made an official state holiday of the day we became part of the United States!

If you have crappy handwriting, have someone else write [...]

Earlier this week we had to take our dog, Milo, into the vet to have his teeth cleaned. We’ve owned him for 2 years and haven’t had him in for that work since we got him – we knew it was time.
