Journals on SEO?
Just a quick question – what is "SEO 1.0"? It's something I've never heard of before. Anyway, I'd really recommend reading articles SEOmoz and YOUmoz. If you're in the mood for a physical book to read, Art of SEO is supposed to be fantastic.

Got me an iPhone 4
I think it's quite bad to be honest, it shouldn't really have ever happened and, now that it has, Apple should sort it out by a recall to those who are suffering with the reception issue. Besides, from what I gather, it's not happening to every iPhone 4, just the majority.

Implementing a CMS
CushyCMS is far too controlled in my opinion. There's no reason why you can't keep expansion in mind and use WordPress right from the off. It'll only take you a few hours extra to create the design and you'll have such a powerful system behind your site that you'll never look back, I promise. I think one thing that's off-putting is the size of WordPress, but it's not as daunting as it seems. In fact, it's more easy to use than any other (and I'm generalising) content management system in my opinion. :-)

That's funny because iTunes is a great piece of software. iTunes + iPhone + Spotify = Perfect Combination.

What to do at uni..
Do you really need to go? If you don't know what to do there it means you're either not ready for university or don't need to go.

WoW
I played it for a week or so recently but I don't see the big deal. Any game that takes more than a few weeks to get into isn't fun. That's purely forcing yourself into a habit. If you enjoy it, go for it. If you don't, I wouldn't bother wasting your time. Personally, I'd rather play a game that was more interesting than running around killing goblins.

.active (css not working)
With the method I used, it shouldn't matter what page you're on if you're only using a php include for the navigation. Is the problem because you have a header.php file?

.active (css not working)
What I tend to do is this: <body id="home"> <ul id="nav"><li><a href="#" id="homeNav"></a></li> <li><a href="#" id="nextNav"></a></li> </ul> </body> body#home a#homeNav { /* stuff here */ } That will work.

How important is it to develop for Linux and FreeBSD OS / Browser combos?
Ubuntu & FreeBSD are renowned for having poor text rendering and support for websites so it's up to you. What I tend to do is launch the site working in all the main browsers and operating systems (Firefox, Safari, Chrome, IE7+, Opera on Windows & OSX) and then monitor my analytics. Head over to http://www.google.com/analytics/ and set yourself up an account if you don't already have one. Let it track your site for a good 2 or 3 weeks then click on "Visitors > Browsers Capabilities > Browsers and OS". When you've determined whether linux users visit your site, you can then decide whether it's worth spending the time on building your site to work on said OS'.

General Election
Awesome, it looks like we've got a coalition government. Conservative and Liberal Democrat . I'm really excited about this, it's the first time any general election has actually affected me.

COD: Modern Warfare 2
It's annoying isn't it? I've managed to do a few by myself on Veteran too but today I've been having real trouble joining with anyone. My NAT type is usually Open but at the moment it's Moderate... Annoying eh?! By the way, I don't have Halo 3 so it'll be a while before I can sort you out with any sort of Campaign run-through . I got to Prestige today at about 8pm, I just logged off and I already level 12 - 15 (can't remember where in that)!

Design thoughts
I'm not saying using negative margins is wrong, I'm saying this is wrong: <div id="header> <h1>Keyword Header</h1> <p>Keyword description> </div> #header { margin-left:-30000px; } Something a lot of people use and shouldn't.

Design thoughts
You shouldn't challenge Google you should embrace their changes and take on board everything they do and say to make you a better, more efficient SEO. Negative margins are a 'no no' for me because it's hiding content! Anything that involves hiding content, even a negative margin is a bad thing. Sites should be natural and semantic. Sure, the content should be written with SEO in mind, but it should be as organic as possible, hiring professional copywriters if necessary.

Design thoughts
The reason I say all of it is because you're doing something unnecessary that won't necessarily have much effect on your rankings. The way you've written the URL makes it look like a deep page - something that search engines will notice, even if you have it set to a high priority in your sitemap. In the majority of instances it's better to have your link anatomy like so: http://www.yourdomain.com/ http://www.yourdomain.com/page-title/ http://www.yourdomai...sub-page-title/ For example, a page on my site is: http://www.traxor-de.../jack-official/ but the page http://www.traxor-de....com/portfolio/ still exists. I can't say 100% that something bad will happen. What I can say is that it's incredibly bad practice and won't necessarily do anything other than make you look bad. For me, it's up there with having header tags with a negative margin set.

Design thoughts
Keep in mind that search engines are more likely to index for content. Having a good link anatomy is one thing, but you're overdoing it and it's obviously to myself and probably to the search engines what you're trying to do. You want your domain to gain link authority, not a sub-folder then sub-file!!! Using a 301 redirect or a URL rewrite really isn't a good idea for your index unless you're just doing it for something like /home/ or /main/.

Your best Music?
Their last album was a massive step. Agaetis Byrjun is my favourite album followed by Takk... Med sud (the most recent) was a very good album, it took a little getting into because it was very different but songs like Fljotavik and Vid Spilum Endalaust made that album great :-). Gobbledigook performed live was incredible, the atmosphere was amazing.
