It isn't SEO, it's Performance Architecture
On the radio today, I heard some laughter over the Jesse Jackson Jr. / Rod Blagojevich "scandal" (?); primarily, that Jackson's handlers have taken offense at CNN's labeling Jackson an 'informant.' The amusement stems from, with few exceptions, the fact that for all intents and purposes, that's exactly what he is. Spokesman Kenneth Edmonds described Jackson's interaction with federal authorities this way:
"As a responsible citizen and elected official, Congressman Jackson has in the past provided information to federal authorities regarding his personal knowledge of perceived corruption and governmental misconduct."
This is not meant as political commentary so… moving on…
What struck me was how stark an example we have of our predilection for renaming things as terms fall out of favor. We aren't considering economic "bailouts" but "rescues." During this economic challenge, many haven't been "laid off" but are victims of a "reduction in force." (should we throw one more on the political debate?) Are they "illegal immigrants" or "undocumented workers?"
As we practice SEO, we're burdened with misunderstanding and confusion about what it is that we do; and more importantly, how.
Is search engine optimization more than the optimization of a site for search engines? It is to me and if you are enabling and communicating SEO properly, it is to you. Through SEO you are designing URLs that are intuitive and easy to recall. Your optimization favors not just third party engines but your own site search functions, making it easier for your audience to find what they want. Most importantly, if you are smart, you aren't optimizing specific pages but all of them; attracting as many customers as possible to the point at which they are more likely to convert = $$.
If you are merely assisting in the design of your website on behalf of search engines, you aren't doing your job. Better put, you are an engineer and designer, working with (or better IN) marketing with all the experience and obligations as such. Your are architecting a better site.
SEO is Performance Architecture
As I mulled the idea, more came to mind. First, the infectious entertainment that invades your mind with subliminal messages; Viral Marketing. Is it really Viral? It is Community Commercialization.
Search Engine Marketing? Link Bait.
Think about it for a minute… just a link in search results, a hook to attract your fish.
Bloggers? Fishers
(see previous supposition)
Consider Bill Slawski's point – then watch your blogging!)
Comparison Shopping? Price Comparison or…. things that make you miss Magnum P.I.
Banner Ads? Conversion Commercials
okay okay! Firefox Favors might be more accurate.
And of course, Social Networking is really a Face Book

Haha, 'fishing for links'…Man, if I were fishing for links, I sure would be more *uhem* obedient to the herd. In fact, I'd be careful if I were you…
Just seeing my links anywhere on your site will ensure that your article doesn't get many Sphinns, if any at all. Sphinn mods are blatant crooked marketers without remorse. No ethics..just talk of ethics for sure.

SEO is performance architecture, it is a puzzle that requires pieces to complete it, it's not just one thing, it's a mixture of many over time that allows your website to be a success.
SEO'Brien says :
Well said Nick
Could be added, SEO isn't the job of a single person or "an SEO" but the entire organization; a mixture of many things.
[…] It Isn't SEO It's Performance Architecture Great post about how SEO is an architecture, or as I like to think of it a puzzle made up of tiny pieces that working together, bring the picture together. […]

Great article! Focusing on Information Architecture that Google will love and that people will find easy to understand and use is important. Once the information architecture is set in place, the graphical user interface can be built so people will find it intuitive to move around the site and find what they are looking for.

The current Town of Southampton Trustees are: Eric Shultz – President, Fred Havemeyer – Secretary/Treasurer, Jon Semlear, Edward Warner, Jr., and William Pell IV.
Eric Shultz – President
Eric Shultz began his career in Town Government in 1972 when he was appointed to the Town Conservation Board at the age of 17. In 1982 he was appointed as the youngest person in Southampton's history to serve on the Town Planning Board. After 13 years he left the Planning Board as its Vice Chairman to assume the role as an elected Town Trustee. He has been a Trustee since 1996 and currently serves as President.
Eric has been active in his community of East Quogue and was former Scoutmaster of the Boy Scout Troop and Assistant Chief of the East Quogue volunteer fire department of which he is now a benevolent member. He is a retired member of the New York City Fire Patrol and served as Vice President of the Uniformed Fire Patrolman's union.
With 39 years of service, he has amassed a large body of not only institutional knowledge but the ability to render thoughtful decisions concerning management of the waterways and the land that surrounds them. Eric's additional role as Trustee is historian and archivist and is currently inventorying and supervising digitization of the Trustee records
Areas of Responsibility:
- East Quogue
- Flanders
- Riverside
- Northampton
- Quantuck Bay
Fred Havemeyer – Secretary Treasurer
Fred Havemeyer, Secretary Treasurer of the Board of Trustees, is the third generation of his family to live in Southampton Town and was brought up to have a deep appreciation and strong sense of protection for the environment and the natural resources of our town. He delicately balances the finances of the Board, as well as the coastal resources in his area.
Fred Havemeyer has a lifetime of experience on and around our bays, ocean and ponds. He worked as a professional sport-fishing captain for ten years piloting vessels as heavy as 65 tons up to 85 miles off shore from Block Island to Cape May.
Fred Havemeyer was one of the early surfers on the East End, starting in the early 1960′s and through many years in this sport learned an unparalleled understanding and appreciation for our ocean and beaches and the forces that affect them.
At the present time, Fred and his son Freddy are avid surf casters and are familiar sight fishing together on our beaches. They tag and release most of their fish.
Before becoming a Trustee, Fred Havemeyer had been an outspoken advocate for the protection and preservation of our environment and our natural resources. In this capacity, he spoke in front of the Town Board and village government on many occasions. Some of the issues he was concerned about were the building of bulkheads, preservation of open space, protecting our drinking water and strengthening the wetland laws.
In early May of 2002, Fred Havemeyer was appointed to the Southampton Town Board of Trustees. He was selected because of his extensive knowledge of and experience with our bays, beaches, wetlands and freshwater ponds and because of his active commitment to the preservation of these natural resources over the years.
Areas of Responsibility:
- Sebonac Neck
- Art Village
- Mecox
- Tuckahoe
- Southampton
- Wickapogue

Jon Semlear

Jon has been lending his knowledge to better enable other Baymen and locals alike enjoy more shellfish, and cleaner water.
Areas of Responsibility:
- Sagaponack
- Bridgehampton
- Deerfield
- Rose Grove
- Noyac
- North Side Hills
- Pine Neck

Mr. Warner filled the vacancy created by the death of his father, Trustee Edward J. Warner, Sr. on March 2, 2006.

William Katz: Urgent Agenda
LET US NOT AVERT OUR EYES – AT 10:30 A.M. ET: With all that's happening in the Mideast, and here, we tend to forget that the Iranian nuclear program can still, potentially, be the greatest threat we face. The news on that front, is worrying. From The Wall Street Journal:
COMMENT: Obama has reiterated his commitment not to allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon, although I wonder how we would know if they assemble one or two, or more, secretly.
There is a theory floating around that Obama is being supportive of Israel's attacks against Hamas, which is supported by Iran, to try to force Iran to the negotiating table in regard to its nuclear program. It seems to me that's a false hope. Nothing, in all the years of talks with Iran, has worked in slowing its drive toward nuclear weapons. I'm afraid some very grave decisions must soon be made.

Budget cuts to a state program that provides mammograms to screen low-income women for breast cancer have affected far more women than expected, according to state figures. While the cuts had been expected to reduce the number of recipients by 17 percent to about 21,000 per month, only about 10,000 women per month received the service in the first three months of the year, according to this AP story. Some of the centers that perform the mammograms report that they are struggling to keep their doors open because the steep drop in the number of patients has left them short of funds to pay their overhead costs. State officials say they expect the number of screenings reported to rise as more centers file their paperwork later this year.

Daily Blitz: RB Brown up for "FedEx Ground Player of the Week"Posted by on September 25, 2012 – 9:00 am
It's Tuesday and that means it's time to vote for the NFL's weekly awards. Once again, a Giants player is nominated after Eli Manning was named the "FedEx Air Player of the Week" and recognized for the "Never Say Never Moment of the Week" following his 510 yards in a comeback victory against Tampa Bay.
But Week 3 was all about running back Andre Brown, who rushed 20 times for 113 yards and two touchdowns as the Giants defeated the Panthers 36-7 on the road. Making his first career start, Brown's primetime performance on Thursday night has him nominated for the "Ground Player of the Week."
Other nominees: Jamaal Charles (Chiefs) and Maurice Jones-Drew (Jaguars).

The team here at TapLynx is here to help you build. We're also here to help you learn more about TapLynx as you make the initial decisions about building your app. Here are a few commonly asked questions about TapLynx that may help you along the way:
Can I sell my app on the App Store once I've built it on TapLynx?
Once you purchase a TapLynx license, you own your app. This means if you want to sell your app on the Store, you're free to.
How do I get the money when I charge for my app?
This is all managed through your Apple Developer account once you've published your app in the Store.
How many apps can I publish per license?
Each license works for one app only.
Do I need an Apple Developer account?
Yes, you need a Developer account to publish your app to the App Store. If you want to distribute your apps for internal company purposes only, you'll need the Apple Enterprise Developer account.
Will TapLynx help me publish the app?
We are happy to walk you through the steps via our customized Support package. See the Support tab at the top of the page for more information.
Can I make multiple apps?
You definitely can. You will just need a license key for each app. If you're developing a bulk of apps, we offer discounts. Get in touch with us at [email protected] to learn more.
Can I build an Android app too?
Right now TapLynx is only designed for iPhone and iPad apps, though creating an Android version is one of our top priorities.
Do you offer a non-profit discount?
We think the $299 price of TapLynx is an incredibly low price for an app for both non-profits and for-profits. We only offer discounts for those customers buying in bulk or who develop a large number of apps for clients.
Can TapLynx help me build my apps?
We do build semi-custom apps via our parent company Push IO. Email us at [email protected] for more information.

Tag: Hydroelectric energy
Existing and potential hydropower projects on the Zambezi River
Proposed Dams and Hydropower Projects Water has many critical roles in the realization of socio-economic development in southern Africa. One such role is to provide hydropower to help the region to meet its ever-growing demand for energy. SADC Member States, through the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP), have thus planned to commission a number of hydropower projects in the Zambezi River Basin. The Basin is considered to have enormous capacity ...

Zambezi River Basin hydropower facilities
The hydropower potential of the Zambezi River Basin is estimated at 20 000 megawatts (MW)of which about 5 000 MW has been developed (Tumbare 2004). More than half of this potential is in Mozambique, about one-quarter in Zambia and one-sixth in Zimbabwe (SADC and ZRA 2007). The Cahora Bassa, Kariba and Kafue Gorge dams provide the bulk of the basin's hydropower, generating 2 075 MW, 1 470 MW and 990 MW of electricity, respectively (World Bank ...

Annual flow of water to the Caspian Sea
Most of the water flowing into the sea comes from coastal rivers – currently supplying 300 to 310 cubic km a year. The Volga alone accounts for 80% of inflow. But it has dropped substantially during the 20th century, declining from about 400 cubic km in the 1920-30s to between 260 cubic km and 270 cubic km at present, due to various climatic factors and human activities such as dams built for hydroelectric energy production.

Simple but very sleek looking, and very sturdy. I have a book shelf at home and it's so flimsy but this one is great. I'm able to fit 3-5 lb books and decorative picture frames and vase that are about /-2 lbs. Is not herculeus so of course I don't expect to store anything big on this bookshelf but it does the job as a bookshelf or even a display stand for that matter.Good price for simple style, but good quality, you wont hear anything bad from me.

The Quick & Easy Way of Getting into YUI: SimpleYUI
>The Yahoo! YUI is an incredibly feature-rich JavaScript library with a LOT of functionality but getting your head around all of those features can be tough. The YUI team wants to help developers get up and running more quickly and announced yesterday the release of SimpleYUI; a basic and more streamlined version of the YUI library.
SimpleYUI will contain basic DOM access and manipulation including support for CSS 3 selectors in the selector engine, animations via the new transition module, the event system, Ajax and JSON support.
The great thing is that when you're ready to leverage more advanced features like managed attributes and custom events, you still have the ability to do on-demand loading just like you'd expect from the full-featured version of YUI. This includes any YUI 2 or 3 component or YUI 3 Gallery module.
- <script type="text/javascript" src="http://yui.yahooapis.com/3.2.0pr2/build/quickyui/quickyui-min.js"></script>
- <script>
- Y.use('dd-drag','yui2-datatable', 'gallery-accordion', function(Y) {
- // here you can use YUI 3 Drag and drop, YUI 2 DataTable, Accordian or any other control contributed to the gallery by the community
- });
- </script>
YUI team member Eric Miraglia put up a nice post about SimpleYUI which shows you some of the goodness include.

Does anybody think that YUI's going to usurp jQuery? I'm sure it's got it's got it's niche (at Yahoo), but outside of that?
And I'm sure it's technically and conceptually superior and all that, but we all know how that story goes…
We've written and rewritten our web application (a packaged software product) using several different JavaScript libraries. We used Prototype+Scriptaculous and Dojo on the first version, jQuery on the prototype for the second version, and now YUI on the third version.
For our type of application, YUI appears to be a solid choice. I like the good base of widgets, class structure, extensibility, and reliability.
Here's a quick walk through of some of the YUI widgets that we use:
We're using YUI 2 now and have played with YUI 3. This all may change when we upgrade to YUI 3..
BTW, thanks YUI for the great work. YUI 3 looks exciting!
Well, the story of technically and conceptually superior in the development world often goes different then in the consumer world :-)
AFAIC YUI rocks. I especially like the structured approach to building components. For the casual user, I think the the ease with which you can pull down components from both YUI and the user gallery with one command should be appealing.
I don't think anything will surpass jQuery because it's absolutely great for doing the basics and serves as a point of entry for designers and developers coming from non-scripting backgrounds. Where it falls short is when you're actually building applications. Data binding, components/modules, dependency loading, and sandboxing really do help build cleanly structured apps. You can do these to some extent in jQuery, but it's not the default/natural way of doing things.
It's not about winning, it's about building a large enough community to get yui3 self sustaining without the yui team. There are more than enough JS developers to sustain multiple js library communities, it's more about convincing people that different libraries really are good for different things.
YUI will find it's place in a slightly bigger niche as people start writing scripts to be run on both client and server with node.js. jQuery is just not as useful as YUI in that environment .
I have never used YUI before (although I have used dojo, proto/scriptaculous and jquery). That said, if you need to release a streamlined version of your library to help people understand it, isn't that perhaps indicative of a problem?
[warning: comment might sound flame-baitish, but it's just a strong opinion]
IMO it's a way for the YUI team to say "hey world! we released a dumbed down version of our library so all you jQuery pseudo-developers can migrate to YUI without feeling pressure to learning real programming".
I think it's both good and bad: they create a new entry point to YUI, but they also still scare some monkeys that fear there's an "Advanced YUI" that they cannot tackle with their just-download-and-mix-a-hundred-jquery-plugins skills.
That's not flamebait*ish*. That's just a flame.
But as has been already mentioned, YUI and jQuery have two *completely* different goals. YUI is, as the name suggests, a complete user interface framework, with desktop-esque controls, modules and dependency resolution, etc – suitable as the basis for large web applications mimicing the desktop app style. jQuery is nothing more than a cross browser DOM manipulation and AJAX library. It's great for when you just need a reliable way to create interactive content, but don't need ish like tabbed pagination or a data table or whatnot. Its when the jQuery developer starts reaching for something like jQuery UI that jQuery stops being a good choice.
Just because a project running in the browser doesn't need rich controls and the like doesn't mean its a hack job that a plugin-of-the-week jQuery monkey could write.
@gunchuki: I disagree. SimpleYUI isn't a dumbed-down version of anything — it's the full YUI 3 that developers expect. Rather, it's a convenience bundle that rolls up some common functionality and creates a global instance immediately. You can still Y.use() modules not included in the rollup — just as you would do when using any YUI 3 seed file as a starting point. This is a great way for prototypers to get started with YUI and it makes easier the use case of throwing YUI 3 on a page to do simple Dom, Event and Ajax operations. By no means is it reductive beyond that — it's the full, real YUI 3, with all YUI 3′s capabilities and strengths. -Eric
@eric: you are right there, I was just thinking loudly and nothing else. in fact, presence of the Y.use method is what ultimately shows that you are more capable than simple dom and ajax.
my comment was more in perspective of "what people see" rather than "what it really is".
Now I can finally do all my prototyping with YUI3 instead of jQuery. The only thing that was really holding me back was ease of use.

A crown of fire
Posted on | October 16, 2009 | 4 Comments
We have a few birthday traditions in this house (chocolate cake, of course, bunting and Dutch slingers – paper bunting / garlands often with words, shapes or characters – see here for some pictures), and last weekend we added what I hope will become a new tradition – a crown of flowers for the birthday person. The girls always love it when we do something with fresh flowers (remember the house of flowers?) and seeing as the garden is currently overflowing with nasturtiums, we turned some of them into crowns.
This is how we did it.
1. We gathered together:
2. We placed the long strip of paper at the edge of the table (in order that the flowers could lie flat, with their heads hanging over the edge), taped down each end and then lay flowers across the strip of paper.
3. The flowers were sellotaped into place.
4. The stems were cut off, so that none overhung the paper strip.
5. The two ends of the paper strip were brought together in a circle and sellotaped together. Voila – a finished crown These worked really well as crowns – the nasturtiums lasted maybe 3 hours before they started looking manky – but I think they would also work well as table decorations eg around candles or vases.
So having had such fun with the nasturtiums, I set about finding a book that had them in. First point of call was our collection of Flower Fairies books, where sure enough there is a Nasturtium flower fairy:
Nasturtium the jolly,
O ho, O ho!
He holds up his brolly
Just so, just so!
(A shelter from showers,
A shade from the sun;)
'Mid flame-coloured flowers
He grins at the fun.
Up fences he scrambles,
Sing hey, sing hey!
All summer he rambles
So gay, so gay-
Till the night-frost strikes chilly,
And Autumn leaves fall,
And he's gone, willy-nilly,
Umbrella and all.
Not the greatest of poems I'm sure you'll agree; it certainly didn't fill M and J with excitement. So off I set to find some other nasturtium related literary delight. Ted Hughes has a poem called Moon-Nasturtium in his collection The earth-owl and other moon-people, with the opening lines:
Nasturtiums on earth are small and seething with horrible
green caterpillars.
On the moon they are giant, jungles of them, and swarming
with noisy gorillas.
(click here for the full text). This was certainly more interesting for M, although we actually love the caterpillars that feed off nasturtiums – they are one of the reasons we grow them!
The earth-owl and other moon-people, which Ted Hughes wrote specifically for children, is an interesting collection of poems, although most of them are better suited for older primary school children, or young secondary school kids (other poems in the collection which I think could be enjoyed by younger school-age listeners include Music on the Moon, Tree Disease and Moon Tulips). The poems describe a fantasy world on the moon where strange and nonsensical creatures are the norm, and as such I think they are great for sparking kids' imagination. The original illustrations by R.A. Brandt seem to me very much of their time (the collection was first published in 1963) – black, white and mostly only suggestive of their inspiration, and I think the poems could find a new lease of life if republished with newly commissioned illustrations that capture the Lear-esque, larger-than-life essence of Hughes' poetry in this collection.
If Not for the Cat by Jack Prelutsky, illustrated by Ted Rand was where I turned next as it contains the most gorgeous illustration of some nasturtiums:
If Not for the Cat was definitely my most successful find as far as M and J were concerned. Prelutsky has written 17 short poems (technically each a haiku) about animals, without actually naming any given animal and so each poem works as a little riddle that M enjoyed solving. In addition to the enjoyment derived from solving the poetic puzzles, both girls loved the beautiful, painted illustrations, combining bold watercolour washes with perfectly placed detail.
A Flower Fairy Alphabet: Hmm, how to rate this? I suppose every young girl will enjoy the flower fairies at some point, but more for the illustrations than the poems, so I guess I'll go for
The earth-owl and other moon-people: Another slightly tricky one to rate, though for different reasons. Great for adults and older kids, but not for preschoolers or younger, so again
If Not for the Cat: No difficulty here – fun poems, great interaction with guessing the animal, superb illustrations so
Whilst making our crowns we listened to Will there be any stars in my crown? by The Cox Family on the Down From the Mountain album and Wait Till I Put On My Crown by the The Delta Rhythm Boys. Before the nasturtiums are over for this season we will have to have a go at this Nasturtium Fairy Nectar, and I'd also like to use the crayon melt technique described here by Almost Unschoolers to make some of our own pictures of nasturtiums – I think the fiery autumn colours would be perfect for these flame-like flowers.
Now over to you – do you know of any beautiful nasturtium illustrations / stories / poems in kids books? And what about your favourite birthday traditions?

Wow you still have flowers in the garden, cant you tell I live my the NE coast. No flowers left and our nasturtiums were pretty pants this year.
I love what you have done with them thoug, beautiful, just like the girls
October 17th, 2009 @ 7:43 am
Love those crowns (and the link to the flower house). I was just thinking this morning that spring is about flowers and how I'd love to set my 2 year old up with some tiny vases and scissors so she can arrange flowers for our nature table as she pleases. Yet we have so very few spring flowering plants our garden. One of the few we have are nasturtiums that self seedevery spring from our garden's previous life. So I think if they survive this weekends 'summer sun' we'll be princesses on Monday.
No stories come to mind but you can eat nasturtiums – both the leaves and flowers. The flavour isn't particularly tasty (a little peppery) but it does make for a pretty salad.

Thank you for this! We have a load of nasturtiums in our garden, now I know what I can do with them

I love this flower crown tradition! Such a beautiful idea. I think we will make some of these this summer when we have plenty of flowers to work with from our garden.

To me except for performance, they both would compare like this: The Jag wins for the exterior looks/design and BMW has better interior (considering the back seats).

The Sarpy County sheriff says a Papillion man was booked Sunday night for willful reckless driving, flight to avoid arrest, and leaving the scene of a property damage accident.
Twenty four year old William Weise was arrested after crashing into a house and fled once Papillion police and deputies arrived.
Deputies say Weise crashed his Ford F-150 into the house at 10724 S. 113th just after 6:45pm Sunday. As the driver fled the scene, he struck a parked car. Later in the chase, another parked vehicle was hit along with a light pole. The truck finally stopped in a ditch.
A neighbor saw the action unfold. Jeff Mares told Channel 6 News, "It was all in very slow motion. They weren't going very fast, but it did turn into a chase."
Deputies were initially told that the driver of the pickup might have been injured in the initial crash into the house. Turns out he was not injured, so he was booked immediately into the Sarpy County Jail.
Family members told Channel 6 News that they left the home just a half hour before the crash. Sandra Schneider said the crash happened where the family always sits to watch television. "We're extremely lucky that we weren't sitting here when it happened," Schneider said as she looked over the damage.
