I’m open minded when it comes to blog posts and I’ll give anything a 2 minutes of my time (if I have the time). I’ve always been a big fan of Seomoz.org and mattcutts.com as they generally provide accurate new information and discoveries to the SEO world.

However…

Recently I’ve started to notice completely non relevant posts cropping up which, quite frankly I have no interest in. There are thousands of SEO blogs out there (this one included hehe) and the majority of them repeat old news or attempt to put a spin on an old theory so what have the “top dogs” been discussing recently?

1. My favorite pedometer: Omron HJ-720ITC – Matt Cutts

2. Snippets from 30,000 Feet – Seomoz.org

3. Suggested schwag: triple-tap AC adapters – Matt Cutts

4. 13 Things to Do When Your Loved One is Away at Conferences– Seomoz.org

So this must be an indication that in the world of these two sites must be well on top of things. Ok I know Matt Cutts has a gadget section so I can’t be too hard on him but seriously the majority of your readership is after SEO related info – please indulge us! Seomoz.org I am disappointed with you guys, if I want to read about what Rand gets up to on a plane trip or what to do when my “loved one” is away I’ll read the entertainment section of Digg.


I understand you can’t make up new findings but I can think of 101 different topics to write about that would be more interesting and related to seo. This is not a personal attack in any way and I do enjoy reading the material posted on the sites, but Seomoz.org especially with the amounts of money you guys must be floating please have some sort of quality control on your blog pieces.
Thanks

I use to be a pretty heavy user of Myspace back in 2006 as were most of my friends. As i was reluctantly converted to
Facebook I’ve never looked back and here’s why and why Facebook may have just reached the same point:

These are the reasons I left Myspace:

1. I didn’t like Tom, he would never reply to my messages
2. I would get friend requested by random naked girls who were just after my money
3. I could never log on to Myspace when I wanted it was always when Myspace was ready for me
4. I started getting wall posts by the hour that made no sense what so ever!
5. Myspace would destroy my sence of reality by being “online bling”
6. I had to listen to music everytime I loaded a different page
7. I started getting a bit too obsessed with my profile views, but I was the highest ranking person out of my friends(ignoring point 2)
8. I didn’t own Myspace although the name contradicts it
9. Myspace looks like a billboard of adverts
10. I had to keep saying I was happy to use my current Myspace even though there was a “Uk” version.

Reasons why FaceSpace is evolving :

1. I don’t like the fact the owner of Facebook is younger than me
2. Facebook should be called Closedbook it’s never working!
3. These applications are all and good and well when they work but most of the time you ust get an error message
4. Im getting friend requests from naked women again
5. Im getting random friend requests and pokes then feel used as their profiles are just advertising
6. I find myself refreshing a screen to see if anything has happened - im never going to get this time back!
7. I got “tagged” kissing a girl which my ex-girlfriend didn’t like (even though we wern’t together)
8. When I get drunk I forget about Facebook then have to see how bad I looked the night before.
9. I don’t get the name
10. Vampires don’t exist

As you can see im on the brink of finding the next “un-spoilt” thing. A complete social nightmare.
