Updating My Blog – a new theme

Crowdsourcing or Outsourcing?
‘Crowdsourcing’ in my opinion is just a fancy netword for ‘auction’…as in international auction. Ok, Outsourcing. There, I said it. At first read, my response was to shake my head and mentally mutter “bottomfeeders…” in my head. But as often happens, I checked myself as to why that was my reaction. I’ve held an acct…

SEO is dead. Part 2
It appears that even Google is getting sick of SEO gamers. Enough so to even penalize a major company like Overstock.com. An excerpt from an article in the The Wall St Journal today states that,

SEO is dead
Ranking highly in search engines means absolutely nothing if people are just going to press the back button as soon as they’ve spent five seconds on your awful website.

Flexible
In Revit we are continually exhorted to ‘flex’ our families. That is to say, when creating a parametric family component (like a piece of furniture or a fixture) I need to flex the model by inputting a variety of values for the different parameters, such as…

Can’t get no satisfaction
Sometimes I don’t don’t know when to stop. At what point do I stop playing with the details of a project when I can’t get no satisfaction? It’s a good thing there are deadlines…Been spending much time on 3hirdCoast.com project.Visit it. Bookmark it. Fwd it. Make it your homepage. That would be satisfying. Thanx.

3 Kinds Of People
“There are 3 kinds of people in the world today. There are “well-poisoners”, who discourage you and stomp on your creativity and tell you what you can’t do. There are “lawn-mowers”, people who are well-intentioned but self-absorbed; they tend to their own needs, mow their own lawns, and never leave their yards to help another…
