Dearest Digg,
I couldn't help but notice your site has a small technical issue. It's no biggie, but I think fixing it could save you some money. I'm all about saving people money, just the other day I handed out coupons for a free trial-sized bag of hydrogenized bean-lard-mulch. I know, I'm practically a saint.
I noticed ...
Much like how I shared The Best Things I Overheard at SES Chicago, I thought I'd enlighten the readers with the best, funniest, most outrageous, or downright random things said and heard at SES London:

... and here I am in Seattle. No great arches. No grand museums, galleries or cathedrals. Only one iconic tower. While Scott and Rebecca have been drinking with SEOs in London and Chunneling it to Paris, Jeff, Matt and I have been sitting in our office, glaring glumly at a Western Washington sky that was blue this morning and is now pissing down with rain.

As I manage quite a few PPC campaigns I always notice the silly and sometimes not so silly mistakes that advertisers make with their PPC programs. Mistakes when creating PPC ads, click fraud detection, and ...
Ok masterbaiters, it is time for you take your thumbs from where they usually are -- the keyboard typing some clever missive to garner links -- to give this post a thumbs down. You won't like it. The Google bomb for President Bush has finally withered to a miserable failure. Its cleverness had a built-in time bomb waiting to boom, and perhaps linkbaiting has a bomb t...
You have anywhere from 4-10 seconds to engage my attention before I’m gone... Before I click away, close the window and head over to your competitor’s site for a dose of instant gratification. I shouldn’t have to piece together the objective of your page—this isn’t a TV crime drama, and even if it were, the plot would be more obvious than ...
