What Are April’s Top Commentators Up To?

May 18th, 2007 · 8 Comments · 1,798 views

This might be a little late since we’re more than half-way through May, but here goes… Here are some of April’s top commentators and interesting posts I found on their blogs:

Techified takes a look at the second generation of iPod Shuffle - the MP3 player I’m using at the gym has only 128 MB so I’m thinking about upgrading soon. I’ll probably get a Shuffle or a Nano…
Michael Kwan posted a video with The 10 Best 8-Bit Video Games of All Time - really takes you back… even though those games were much simpler in every way compared to today’s games it doesn’t mean they were any less fun :)
Robert Irizarry has a video of Joe Giglio playing a custom built guitar on the streets of New York City - cool tunes.
Ryan J. Parker thinks Google’s AdWords Quality Score is Confusing - yeah, there are many different factors that go into the quality score so it can be hard to figure out how you can improve your quality score. I would try the “peel and stick” method and create a separate ad group with very targeted ad copy and landing page for your most important keywords (or keywords that you want to improve the score of).
Everyday Weekender found a cool toy: a transparent canoe.
Jayson Joseph points out that you should look for simple solution - good tip and nice story :)
Dawud Miracle posted a video showing you How You Can Read 600 Feeds Each Morning - pretty cool video. Some nice tips if you want to stay on top of things in your market.

With the recent Page Rank update it can be quite beneficial for webmasters to comment on my blog. Not only is the front page PR4 but the Top Commentators links are on all sub-pages (of which many are PR3 and PR2) - and if you put your blog into the URL when you’re commenting you might end up on the next top commentators “link love” post :)

So, comment away… - preferably if you have something interesting/valuable to say ;)

Keywords: adwords, google adwords, page rank, PR, pagerank, rss, rss feeds, google, time management, link love, comments, top commentators

I can’t help it, I’m a bit Scoble fan. I just like his light, yet pointed approach to conversational media.

Thanks for the link love…I love the link love.

Thanks for the link! Sorry I’ve been a bit quiet over the last week or so. I’ve been swamped at work!

Thanks for the link, the second generation shuffle is a great unit for the gym, especially if your doing cardio and dont want to risk dropping a nano and breaking the screen

Pbanker - It’s not a plugin, I created a page where I just insert the keywords and it spits out the code I use to paste into the blog post.

Maybe I should open that page to the public. Or create a plug-in that does this. What do you think, would people be interested in that?

Saw the pingback and just now have a chance to read it! Nice update. :)
