knowledge I actually have.
A good imagination is needed for this so sit back
and relax:
Just came back from a meeting with the
maintenance business side of the Airline as I'm making
a new application for them too (I do more than
just airlinefreight.com). There was 2 other
people in the room and 2 on conference call. Of
the two people in the room, one is about 2 lvls
my senior (manager of my manager type person),
and the other is the project manager thats
running this project. The 2 guys on the phone
were technical.
After sitting there listening to crap for 15 mins
I put my foot down. I lent over the desk and
took control of the meeting! Used a Loud voice so the
people on the phone could hear as well I
explained what THEY were talking about, broke it
down to separate points and answered each
separate point peace meal.
At one stage my questions couldn't be answered so
we got another guy on the phone and the guy that
was 2 levels above me started explaining to the
guy on the phone exactly what we were asking. He
was using my EXACT words and phrases (typical
sales/business guy - no offence intended, its how
they work). The guy on the phone then blabbered
on for a while, till I interrupted him and told
him how it was. His actual words were "Oh .. ok
.. Thanks for your honest there, now blah blah
blah"!!! I might've been a bit blunt but as I
was leaving for the meeting one of my team of 3
resigned!
Best thing was, this manager next to me LOVED it.
The bluntness and the way I came to the point
and got it answered blew him away. After the
meeting we stayed and chatted for about 20 mins
and he was saying how happy he was he asked my
manager to step in (my manager handed it off to
me). Like it was his idea for me to take control
of it and work out how to implement this new
system.
After the meeting we were both walking the same
way so kept chatting about various stuff (mainly
how AT&T is stuffing the Airline Around) and he was
disappointed when I wasn't walking all the way to
his building as I work in a different building.
So although I've had one guy resign from my team,
I've just made my self a very valuable ally in
the maintenance business segment.
How to Control a Business Meeting, Engineer vs Senior Management
Tiger Woods Earnings; Billionaire Athlete; Rich List Leader
However actually officially becoming billionaire--means having a net worth above $1 billion, which will take just a little bit longer since a decent stack of Woods' prize and endorsement money is gobbled up by taxes and management fees--estimates around 45%. In terms of other investments, it seems Woods earns around 8% each year. From when he kicked off his golf career in 1996 (This is when Tiger Woods turned pro) to the current day (2008), the figures are based on the Forbes' Celebrity 100 list. Last year (2007), we estimate Woods raked in around $115 million in dollar earnings, amazingly $65 million more than runner-up David Beckham. Interestingly it seems that Tiger Woods TV Ads and Commercials have even more potential to bring in more earnings for the Tiger. Considering all these statistics and figures on what Tiger Woods earns from golf and endorsements, we project Tiger Woods should join our list of the world's billionaires in 2011. Think of it this way; There are plenty of billionaires who have excelled at sports, like Switzerland's richest man and champion sailor Ernesto Bertarelli. But there are no billionaires who accumulated their fortune by playing sports. A representative for Woods did not respond to a request for comment. Look at other Golf high earners; such as Greg Norman - certainly a market leader at endorsements, Greg Norman Golf and/or the Shark Golf is nothing when compared to the might of the Tiger Woods endorsement machine. A billionaire Tiger would also be unique for earning his money through paychecks. If a billionaire didn't inherit his or her money, he or she typically made it by holding a stake in a company with a soaring valuation: Think Bill Gates. He didn't make his billions from his Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ) salary, but from all the stock he owned. From a sponsor point of view; the relationship between Tiger Woods and NIKE is simply amazing. With the backing of Tiger Woods, NIKE quickly become a massive if not leading golfing brand. Originally NIKE didn't play in the golf niche, but with the partnership of Tiger Woods - NIKE golf is now a massive machine.
Why are pages deindexed from Google
For example, MFA (Made For AdSense) type sites trying to look 'fresh, edited and unique' when really they are a collection of RSS feeds, rotating content sprayed with AdSense squares.
So essentially the wild west seems to be reigning in. Google is riding rough shot to keep a big brother control on what essentially is their own future survival. If Google fills up with crap sites, their whole business model dies;
Ok, heres the post I was talking about:
Reference: Google Groups.
This example not only has a site to look at but it also has a response from Adam Lasnik that tells a deeper tale. In short, a site gets deindexed for two basic reasons:
- It has no value to visitors.
- It has no value to Google.
How does it get de-indexed?
- A human editor
- Google algorithms
The site owner for Alken M.R.S Publishing (click the link and take a look) is not having a nice day. Alan did as many people who dream of making money online, built micro sites on many subjects to harness organic search engine traffic for “keywords” (made for adsense). He was over at Google Groups looking for help and thinking it might be some sort of technical thing when in reality (as confirmed by Adam Lasnik) his content was de-indexed because it had greedy intent. Now we are talking, getting deindexed for greed, that has a nice ring to it eh?
Anyhoo, here was Adam’s (Google’s) response:
I think it’s time for some tough love here, Alan.
Imagine this scenario. You walk into a store and some guy — surprisingly the owner — grabs you by the shoulder.
“How’d you like some beer? Oh, hey, we also sell coffee. Hmm… you don’t want something to drink? We specialize in air purifiers, too! And you know what… after you drink some beer next to your new air purifier, I bet you could use a date, right? No, no, not the eating kind… I’m talking a really nice lady! And if she ends up stealing your identity, well, no problem! I sell Identity Theft protection services… and… wait! Wait…come back!!!”
How much would you trust that guy? Or his store? Sure, he may have small leaflets on a zillion topics, but he’s not an expert in any.
If you, as an independent observer, came across such a store online, would you trust it anymore? If not, why should Google see this as an important and relevant site?
The reductions in rankings you’ve experienced are not going to be reversed by simple technical or structural changes. You may wish to focus your efforts, add compelling, original, and substantive content or tools, and *then* file a reconsideration request.
I have been following Matt Cutts, Adam Lasnik and others around on the internet studying their responses for a year or more now. You can learn more about what not to do from these guys than anyone. This also should give you a glimpse into the future, how do you survive such an onslaught to your content? Simple, if you want to have multiple websites or micro sites do them on subjects you truly understand and are passionate about and it will show, get greedy and become a content spammer and you will suffer tough Google love.

Free Virus Scan
Been looking for a free virus scan program or tool? Don't hack or crack something genuine, thats just wrong.
I found out recently about a handy online site that scans any suspicious file for free. Simply upload the file (can be slow on poor connections / large files) to this site:
http://www.virustotal.com/
Very simple and efficient and it detects most major threats.
So don't clog up your PC resources and waste dollars on an expensive solution, try this new online service that I am sure will start becoming mainstream in the virus detection world over the next 12 months or so.
Let me know your thoughts on the free virus scan tool once you've tested it.
