Where has the time gone! Has it really been 4 whole months since my last post here?? Well I’ll do my best to make up for lost time.

I’m bursting with little tech tools and snippits that I’ve stumbled upon in the past weeks and months so I’ll jump right in…

I ran across a new website called tagspage.com, where you can purchase a tag that points to any website of your choosing. The premise behind the site idea was the Million Dollar Home Page project started by that kid in England, whom received rediculous coverage last year and earned himself a cool million in moolah.

The <tags>page is built along those same lines but instead of purchasing graphic pixel space, people buy word tags in customizable color and size. The <tags>page also has a page rank of 7, which is considered by many, to be Google gold. A page rank of 7 on Google means the site is hugely popular and contains very relevant and legitamite content. Gaining a page rank of 7 takes a long time and a lot of hard work. The basic idea behind Google’s page rank system is that good sites tend to link to other good sites. It’s like a popularity contest… the friends of good people must also be good people, and so on. Tags can only be purchased once.

It’s an interesting idea and we’ll have to see how it goes. My curiousity couldn’t stand to be left out, so I purchased a medium font tag for $45. The listing is good for a year. I purchased Xango and linked it to another pet-project site that I maintain called www.XangoRed.com.

Like they say in the real world, if you can’t win your friends… buy them… or something like that
