"I'm an accountant"

I put up a new video today from a recent keynote .... making light of the fact that I'm actually an accountant by background ... kind of a short, humorous clip. You can get to it here. --

Arrivals and departures in the midst of war

It's fascinating if you visit the Kuwait City Arrivals and Departures listings. The pages can be slow to load - sometimes you have to hit the stop button to get it to display -- but you'll notice a bunch of flights are still going in and out despite the cancellations. Some brave people on those flights -- can you imagine the approach/departure, and the pilot discussion?


I also grabbed screen captures also for depatures and arrivals.

#1, #2, #1, #1

Back from March break .... and an interesting discovery here today. My primary line of business happens to be that I'm a frequent keynote speaker at conferences. Today, a search for "keynote speaker" in a variety of search engines places me at the following spots (ignoring the paid listings):

Google - 1
Altavista - 2
Yahoo - 1
Teoma - 1
AOL - 1

I've worked long and hard to get the right balance of keywords/meta tags in my Web pages, and this goes to prove that search engine marketing is a strategy that can work
