Reconsideration, Magazine and Review

Asked Lord Google For Reconsideration

My last PPP post matured on the 15th of January 2008 and that means I can now request Lord Google for some reconsideration regarding my other blog which I did. You see, my blog Kabalyero.com was slapped by Lord Google with a pagerank of 0 for doing PPP. Lord Google did not like that one bit and decided to punish that blog by dropping its pagerank to 0. I stopped doing PPP after that because there weren’t anymore opportunities for me to take for that blog. Now that all my PPP posts have matured, I asked Lord Google to reconsider the punishment given and give back Kabalyero.com’s pagerank.

But before I asked for reconsideration, I first fixed what Lord Google considered as a violation and those were the paid post itself. No, I did not delete them. Instead of deleting them, I added the “nofollow” attribute on all links found in all paid posts. Adding “nofollow” disables the ability of a link to pass pagerank and that’s what Lord Google hates with paid post. Now that the’re all “nofollow” links they won’t be passing anymore pagerank. I’m really hoping that what I did is enough to please Lord Google since doing paid post for PPP was the only thing I can think of that angered Lord Google.

I’ve submitted my request and the process may take a few days, it may even take weeks or even more, but I’m willing to wait (there’s nothing really I can do but wait).

Game! Magazine

I already blogged about it at Kabalyero.com but it doesn’t hurt to mention it here again, right? LOL!

Last month I wrote a story for Game! Magazine and it’s about Second Life. The tasks was assigned to me by the Editorial Assistant, Ms. Diane Reyes. Hey, I will not post the story here but it discusses what Second Life is, what it is for and how it can be used. I haven’t read nor have I seen the final printed piece because, for reasons I do not know, no newsstands or bookstores in our city carry the magazine. I also mentioned a few Filipino Second Life residents in the story but I don’t know if I can mention them here or anywhere. I guess you’ll just have to buy the magazine to know who they are but the magazine is only published in the Philippines.

Got A Review

Today I found a comment in one of my post from Alfred Saforo. It seems that this blog received a review from him and he is absolutely correct, I am no writer. As you can see, my writing has no structure whatsoever. I write it as it enters my head and sometimes they’re all jumbled up in there. There are also times that my typing can’t catch up to what I wanted to write leaving holes in the sentences. LOL! That’s why I’m surprised that Game! Magazine asked me to write about Second Life. Well, I guess that’s why they have editors, proof readers and fact checkers, right? He did like the blog’s design though. Anyway, you can read more about it at bligblogblag.com and thanks to Alfred Saforo for the review. It’s greatly appreciated!
