Since starting at Search Engine Watch taking over for Gary Price to work as the News Editor with Danny Sullivan, I have been waking up pretty early to get all the blogging mostly done before the normal work day. This started about 2.5 years ago, and my typical day started with me getting up at 5:45 (now a bit earlier) and leaving the house by 6am. This worked out well, since Danny was based in the...

10 sites I visit every day for business 1) Search Engine Watch - the first site dedicated to search engines, and still the best. Originally started by Danny Sullivan in 1996 (he resigned in 2006), this is a great site to find out the latest search engine stats, search engine news and more. 2) Plurk - a Twitter like site that I'm testing for business use at the moment. It's a lot easier to follow than...

Email is now "courriel." Search Engine Watch was way ahead of the curve reporting on the upcoming ban. ClickZ's Kate Kaye blogged about French e-mail on the SEW Blog back in June of 2006.

I am hoping people are familiar with that classic "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie" - if not it is a children's classic. Go buy a copy now . The recent post over at SEOMoz about XSS security was informative - well worth the sandwiches sent as payment by Search Engine Watch for the heads up. So the story goes... If you give a Mozz a sandwich he (or she) will probably want champagne to go with it. Then...
