My family arrived tonight from Kentucky to stay for the next several days, so the blogging will be verrrrrrry light for the rest of 2006.

I guess it belongs to the category “light posting for the rest of 2006″ to say something about the latest data push. C’mon Matt..be generous :)

Perfect time for the Google Chat Room to get Going :-D

There are rumours of a holiday update on a couple of forums, also some noticed that their PR0s suddently turned to PR1s.

BTW: :-?
What is a PR1 – it appears that it is VERY rare to find one, most sites debut from 0 to 2.

Twas the week before Christmas and the search engines were slow, shoppers were searching for places to spend their dough.
With mom on her laptop and me on the pc, we knew that the family would be happy as could be.
On VISA, on MASTERCARD, on AMEX we spend, will this internet shopping spree ever come to an end.
Email accounts were totally ablaze, Credit Card companies wanting our limits to raise.
Overnight deliveries are now the only way, UPS and FedEx the dividends they will pay.
Now it’s all ordered and we have time to think, Oh what the heck I’m just going to have a drink.
We will get it all wrapped some how some way, And my wish for you is a wonderful Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas To All!

Merry Christmas, Matt, and thank you for endorsing my complete explanation of the Google Ranking strat– oh, wait. Making such outrageous claims while you’re not online, able to shoot them down quickly, would be unethical.

May the Google Juice be with you!

Merry Christmas Matt.

I and some of the other Cuttlets have gotten together and granted you your requested time off. Enjoy the holidays and your family. You’ve given us plenty to do and think about in 06.

Come January 1st, you are required to give us new and exciting stuff. A breakdown of the algo would be most appreciated.

Oh, you can’t really do that? Ok, well…just give us the scoops as you’ve been doing. Thank you for all your communications during 06. Thank you for all your help. Thank you for the insights and thank you for the effort.

Us little guys keep listening.

What’s this stuff about blogging about lights? I thought it was Gadgets, Google and SEO?

Happy Christmas and Merry New Year.

It’s a light, and it’s a gadget. So Matt’s perfectly on topic.

Happy whatever holiday you celebrate.

For a minute I thought you had removed the rel=nofollow from all your comments; as it turns out I merely disabled seoquake*, so the “strike through nofollow links” was missing.

Have a good year! Thanks for all the great info.

Spirit? What spirit? I”m just out of my damn mind.

I humbly accept your award. I’d like to thank the Academy, my grandma, and the spirit of Elvis. It was an honour just being nominated. I’d also like to thank the wonderful fans for their contribution as well.
