Interesting Observations

blogging, social media and self-improvement!

Where would you like to go?

Sunday was a nice day at fresh perspectives, weather wise and other wise, for a few good surprises! For one, Google was kind and assigned this blog a page rank of 4 and gave me a feeling of ‘official belonging’ to the blogosphere. What more? it came on my birthday (yes, not blog birthday, my birthday ;) so that was a nice surprise!

 

Now SportSayer would probably have to add one more page rank display button for blogs that got the PR for the first time because ‘has been’ or any other from his selection may not quite fit in this situation! May be a ‘lucked out’ button?

A real nice long vacation on birthday would also have been great idea and as a matter of fact I feel it should be mandatory to stay out of work for a few days on or around your birthday. What do you think?

Which brings me to this question:

If money or time were not an issue, and you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Hi, Happy birthday, shinning Pearl! :D
You have an awesome gift from google. :)

So sweet Pearl… happy birthday. You kept that a secret, huh? And I have no gift for you yet… (not ready). Anyway, congratulations. I am not surprised that google assigned you a PR. Quality gets always rewarded.
The blogs that lost PR were involved in questionable linking strategies. I warned more than once against fave trains and bulk link exchanges… Maybe what happened will be a lesson for those bloggers, a lesson that says: quality before quantity.

thank you Mig :) you guys are wonderful gifts for me, honestly! you know what though? In the post, I wanted to get a discussion about where every one would like to go if they got their wish granted :) and I didn’t mean to bring more attention to my birthday other than that I was happy to get a PR by, err what I called an ‘angry bull’ just a couple of days before that :D

but not all blogs that got affected were involved in link exchanges Mig and not all blogs that sold text links got degraded either, so why that was done and why now some blogs were brought up, seems not clear, from I am reading!

First of all: Belated Happy Birthday and then congrats with your ranking. My contributions tonight is that I’ve tagged you and then I guess your soon up to 5 :-)

To your question, where would I go and its easy for me nowadays: I would go to Asia and meet my son who is on a backpacker trip – probably in Vietnam right now.

pearl

thank you so much RennyBA …. I’ve been so far behind on all the tags, I’ll need a whole day to figure out all of them… then another day to make that post :) thank you for thinking of me and I’ll soon get to it…

I didn’t know your son was in Vietnam Renny… hope you get to meet him soon then :)
