Heh heh.  Would you believe that I never set up Movable Type to kick out a daily archives page?

No wonder why I'm having all these directory listings with the search engines.

Well, there's one good thing that came out of moving back over to wordpress.com. I'm now first listed over in Google when you search for 'drmike.' Check it out! :) It's a pity though that I'm only third when you write it correctly though. Have to work on that. Maybe I should start tagging all of my posts with 'drmike' and 'dr mike' edit: Actually had that on my to do list. Something else to knock off thte list as complete. :)

I'm sure you've head about Google Fight by now where you can Linus Torvalds matches up against Bill Gates or finally prove to yourself that Coke is better than Pepsi by comparing Google results between two different words.

Anyone remember when Altavista was the main search engine on the net? Back before Google? Anyone use it anymore? I still use Babelfish quite often but that's about it. And about half the time, they don't do the language that I need to be translated.
