It isn’t you, SEO. It’s me.

Or why my focus on editorial SEO is not what it once was…


Crypto “gurus” worried that AI will crack their wallets.

If that happens, I’ll need to get the electron microscope out to find my tiny, tiny violin.


AI Agent deletes entire unaired series of a reality TV show.

They need to go back and start editing again from the original footage, apparently.

Re-Xing?

The “should we go back to X/Twitter” conversation springing up in the tech social media sphere is interesting – but I have a pragmatic reason for not doing so. I’m time poor, and time spent there does not replay itself. The fact that staying away also aligns with my moral thoughts about the platform sure helps, too.
