Traffic from spammers?
Thanks you for visiting. Please consider subscribing to the RSS feed.I noticed last month some odd incoming traffic, but I don’t understand it. Obviously, it is spam of some sort, but this is new to me so I’m throwing it out there to see if greater minds can enlighten me.

If you normally get a dozen visitors, the first time you get 200 in a day might be exciting. If you normally get 10,000 visitors in a day, 250,000 is where you might say, “cool!”.

Secret spy photo of Ted Murphy in Las Vegas
I hired paparazzi to stalk Ted Murphy in Las Vegas last week. I was ticked that I couldn’t afford to go, and really ticked that no one has processed my 3 outstanding customer service tickets nor answered a direct email to an unnamed PPP director while Ted was gone.

Coming up for air
I’ve been off the paid review teat for almost two weeks. Last week was one of only 2 weeks each year that I need to actually work the entire 40 hrs at the day job. Over the weekend, I suffered from a series of pretty debilitating headaches, and it was last night before I felt […]

You don’t know what you don’t know (or do know)
Ok, maybe that doesn’t make sense to a lot of you, but in market research, the non-parenthetical portion of that title was a mantra when dealing with new markets. Oftentimes, we’d start a market analysis only to find we had no idea what the true nature of the market was, and we’d have to reset […]
