It's not for kids and it SHOULD be marked as such. Judd, be careful as there are NO warning before porn or graphic photos show. It’s not for kids and it SHOULD be marked as such.

Try not to express surprise when it happens. Just sit there, rub your nose, let your eyes water a bit, and move on. Mattie, you've got one SEO now hooked, but really only because the squirming baby on my lap is now quiet for the first time in her sniffly, snuffly, cold-ridden day. She's ENTRANCED and it's awesome! We're at 14 minutes and counting and I can even use both hands to type. You've made my morning. Thanks for that. @Sam I Am – Having a dig at somebody on their blog is going to get you flicked in the nose, it’s just how it goes. Try not to express surprise when it happens.

Google pays my salary to fight webspam regardless of whether I blog or not." Ah, sorry. I wasn't aware that Google's fight against sponsored blogs was only intended for corporate blogs. That's really good to know! "Also, you might not know this about me, but I studied computer graphics and related fields for about five years in grad school before I joined Google. In fact, I was an author on a SIGGRAPH paper myself." Hmm, I'm not really sure how that's relevant. That's like someone saying, yeah, but I used to be overweight and I tried all these diet pills back in the day. It might be true, but I doubt their added paragraph about weight loss pills at the end of their blog post is going to get them any kudos. Anyway, the point I was making was that intent is now harder to recognize (for both humans and Google) because bloggers just won't say whether a post is sponsored or not for fear of google. I guess everyone wins though in the 'new world': the advertisers link is more likely to be crawled AND clicked on, the blogger gets paid more for taking that little bit of extra risk and google doesn't lose face for it appearing as if their system is being gamed. "If you don’t enjoy my blog, feel free not to read it." When did I say that? Just because I make a point out of illustrating how hard intent is to judge I don't like your blog? With the thousands of people working at G I'm sure the scenario I describe was well thought out in advance anyway! “Sam I Am, this is my personal blog where I talk about whatever I want.
