Fixed lots of scodal.com bugs
My database of over 2000 items were working but not linked properly for search engines. After lots of reading online from google, other webmasters, and lots of other resources i learned a lot of things ive been doing wrong. Ive now forced all my links to go to WWW or the proper subdomain so google and other search engines index and rank my content better. The probem is that may people will stll go to the old URL stored.
What is my plan?
Simple. I create a template for those pages that says this content or page has been moved, add a link to the new page, and add a javascript that will automatically redirect them to the new page.
Next, i manipulate each template slightly so that i can display navigation links for more content related to what youre looking at.. Games? More games. Videos? More videos. Oh, and also this allows me to make
I also noticed my 'cloud' tags are going to the wrong link probably creating redundancy and the only solution is 1) get the creator (FI-DD) to change the plugin to work differently -or- 2) remove them.. Unfortuately i am in a stale mate situation where removing them is really my only option. Oh well, they are a pointless extra, not worth messing up any rankings with seach engines.
After i then create pages to help viewers sort content (which will by no means by easy, but well worth it) all i must do is create the xml sheet for google to understand my site.
Lastly, i must not forget to theme posterous, blogger, xanga, and livejournal if possible. I need to know where my viewers are, what they are viewing, and i need to know my ads are being displayed at the same time.
Then its off to flabbr.com to make similar adjustments and modifications. Soon.. Oh soon i will be master blogger. I am very close.
It only leads me to wonder what i will uncover next that my brain will not relax over until i have completed it.
this is the neighbors dog. They call him 'killer' lol im the happiest neighbor
At least hes in his cage right now
this twitter guy named @THEPOETRICIAN
You should follow him. He always makes me laugh cuz he'll tweet me to let me know hes out or about to go out and speed so the cops will chase him and he gets on tv
He just wrote me to tell me thats what hes doing again so im blogging it
brooke is off to work
And here i am writing again. I deleted tons of pictures videos and useless cache wasting space on my blackberry and memory cards that go in my blackberry and its fast to type on again like brand new. Oh how i missed this feeling. All i can think is how hard i should try to avoid it getting gummed up like that again, but its impossible.
Heres what i dont get. The ppl that dont like their crazy phones they buy are also the ones that can afford to be that picky. Im sure i would find a way to love any device that i ended up with but i know i dont have a top of the line phone but yet once again i seem to lap people with my curve 8330 even ppl with the newer blackberry dont do as much as me.. Leading me to first wonder how all this amazing technology exists and then immediately WHY if people dont use it to the full. I guess there must be some other super nerds out there like me that must push it further all the time.
So what im saying is that the people that arent happy with their phone must be able to afford to be unhappy cuz my phone isnt all that great and im loving it. Heres what i had to do to love my blackberry. Its the same thing ive had to do with every computer and laptop ive had too. Spend the time to figure out how to use it, figure out what it cannot do, find its quirks, and live with it. You will love what it CAN do. And all smartphones can email, so if you think its really cool that i can be everywhere online, just go make an account with pixelpipe.com and you'll be like wow what this guy does is no secret.. He just types fast and has a lot to say about nothing. Even with his thumbs.
would really be cool to have another smartphone to type on with my toe thumbs like a chimpanzee
so i drenched it with water
I drenched it with water to see if the ink would run... And it did NOT! I wish i knew what kind of printer they used so i could recommend it. The paper started to fall apart before the ink streaked.
I ran it under the water giving it my 'Storm and Hurricane test' if we could just get this printer to print on cardboard .. Or steel
all night in the party room eh?
Well id say this party is probably going to rock, but not from grace church. And a cover charge, ew lol.. This was in our mail today.
dinner time!
Mm brooke made the noodles and i did the bagel sandwich which is ham by the way
Worlds fastest blogger
I am the fastest typist i know now with the fastest content producing method i know of which makes me the fastest most efficient blogger i know. I know youre probably thiking thats quite a hasty boastful thing to say but i blog everywhere i go everywhere i am from a computer, laptop, or the blackberry in my pocket at all times. There are times im not talkative and i always love to type.
Need more proof? Well heres the good stuff:
I blog to my.scodal.com, xanga, livejournal, wordpress, and im sure im forgetting a few and if you look they are always updated. I hope i never lose my enthusiasm for writing online.
Hey im hungry.. Well thats a blog.
P.s. I vlog too, check it out on YouTube my username is skadallas.
Ahhh! I see you!
I didnt edit this photo, it was hard to take a photo where one has 4 eyes with just a tiny camera.
while youre at it making revisions...
Why dont you add or change mymusic.scodal.com to listen.scodal.com or listen2.scodal.com i like that with the 2 in it.. Lets just see what listento.scodal.com looks like. Eff it just make them all the same
Dont forget to take chat bar off all pages but this one, radio, and stream.. Stream oh stream how i will love and hate is page.
The last thing you need to do after you make the www conversion is disable what blogs youre actively using.. And THINK about what photo services you really want to use.
Hmm im noticing now a major difference between writing a note just on my phone or to my blog is that i cannot simply save this and go back.. At some point i will hit send and probably never edit this again...
Somehow i have to figure out how to speed up my phone again.. What is causing the delays? Memory cards? I will clean them. Now.
last mental note for a while
If you figure out how to have these msgs auto post to twitter, do not blog this often. DO make it blog that often and for all flabbr tweets! That will make him interesting. Find some way to make it so the tweets show they are from an anonymous guest submitting from pixelpipe essentially. I worry my godaddy inboxes will get full but that is a chance i must take even if i cannot have them auto purge and i must log in them and purge them myself. No record need be necessary of the email since record will be on the site recieving.
another mental note
Dont forget you can audio blog... Record message send file, dont call in to any #'s.
mental note
This is me making a mental note to create the email addresses post@scodal.com text@scodal.com video@scodal.com photo@scodal.com pic@scodal.com submit@scodal.com and same for flabbr
And also a mental note that this is the new way i will make mental notes that way people can comment on them and who knows maybe that will help out in some weird way.
P.s. If u could figure out a way to auto create @scodal.com and flabbr.com with wordpress that would be awesome..
Meebo for Blackberry
I wish there was a download for meebo on the blackberry. That would be so handy to take aol instant messenger, facebook chat, yahoo chat, gtalk, and all the other great things meebo has to offer on my phone everywhere i go with me.
If you landed here from google and are sad that there is not a download i am sorry. When they post a link for meebo blackberry download i will put it on this page in no time at ll
butter fingers scott has dropped the honey in the dirty sink, hooray
Now i have to rinse and wipe it before i can add it to my tea
Blogging change forever
Now that i've opened my eyes to even more ways a person can blog about their life instantly i am amazed and realize blogging, sharing pictures, and updating my status will never be the same again. And i was already doing fine.
I just need now to find how to update wordpress and have it automatically create a link to that page on my twitter. Yayayaya! *drools*
i think i learned my final pixelpipe lesson
If you send multiple picture attachments in one email, they all are considered separate posts and duplicate the content. In other words, i cannot send more than one picture at a time with a message as a rule.. which is ok. This is for quick sharing. There are other ways that i can share media in case i need to elaborate.
Watching tv and using laptop.. Except that file transfer is in the way. Pause. Check my tea
Its boiling pretty nicely i should prepare my cup.
oh ok lesson learned
So i just found out the hard way.. Or trial n error that if you put a routing tag in more than once on pixelpipe it will route your msg once for each time that it sees the routing tag. I must not do that anymore. But, as a reminder to me and all i am going to leave the status that i double and triple posted up.
As an extra demonstration of flexibility i am going to attach some images

tea time. Ouch and somehow as i take this picture i fall backwards into the counter.
I guess i lost my balance. See what im hoping is that sincei wrote this part in the body it shows up on the blogs but not on twitter.
Pixelpipe is the greatest thing since meebo
I dont know which came first the pixelpipe or the meebo but between the two of them you can make yourself appear everywhere without almost no effort other than initial setup. It took me a while to sign up for all the accounts on different websites to utilize pixelpipe but what they have done is amazing. The one thing other sites don't tell you about pixelpipe is how to use it. Everyone explains what it is.
What is it?
You can use it to update your status, share pictures, share video, or even blog (like im doing right now) by writing to ONE email address and using what are called routing tags to manipulate where the email will end up.
Example:
For this message i added the routing tag and it knows to hit only the blogs u can add other tags too like photo, video, audio, status, file. Thats all the different types of websites you can connect to.
It can be a bit overwhelming at first. Admittedly i went into it blindly and it wasnt until i had signed u for all the websites in the list that i realized what power i had.
WORDPRESS SECRET:
Okay check this out. If you want to have an awesome website setup on a .COM immediately and be able to add content from ur phone instantly.. Or from an email i should say.. Upload wordpress, install it, set it up, theme it, add any plugins you want.. Then head to pixelpipe and connect your wordpress blog! Instantly now you can add content through email.
I like to just sit and think about all of that information and ponder truly the extents of what one (or I) can do with that.
Hey wait, what is meebo?
If you visit http://meebo.com you can connect all ur chat services into one chat account. Meebo is like your master chat service so you don't have tons of programs downloaded, installed, running, wasting HD and Ram.. You just hit meebo.com and bam youre online everywhere! AIM (aol instant messenger) and facebook, thats why i use it.
This is my first real blog through email on pixelpipe, i hope it looks alright.. Something i realize i dont know how to do yet is bold, italicize, underline, and make links. I'm hoping if i type links out like http://www.scodal.com it will just work. What was that noise? I'm outta here.
