Enter a line like this into your robots.txt file. Pointing of course to your own site map. This is a new way for Google to pick up your sitemap. There are times when I have many different site maps, and it’s just not practical to sit there at the Google webmaster console and enter all of them. I will definitely be using this feature.

This was one of those “I’ve got to try that” items I saw. Make a paper wallet! Still not sure the real motivation for having a paper wallet, I suppose it would be a good conversation item. When you pull it out, I’m sure folks are going to ask about it. Could also be a fun project for kids, they could color it all up when it’s done.

Here was my first attempt.

Nice!

Here is how you do it.

Google had net income of $1 billion, up from $592 million in the year-ago quarter. Revenue was a record $3.7 billion, up from $2.3 billion a year ago.

All I can say is “Wow”. Google is on a tear. I thought a year ago Google had peaked, but perhaps not. If they can stay focused and not lose sight of what made them what they are, they can still go along way.

Very neat tool to create nice looking logos. Enter your text and choose from a large variety of options to customize your logo. Here is one I made in only a few seconds. Pretty cool!

“how to report paid links”

I’ve tried many many FTP clients over the years. And a lot of them in the past few months. The best overall FTP Client is…

1. CuteFTP - The most robust and fully featured product. It is not free, the cost was about $60. Well worth the price for what it does. Loaded with features, this one actually does save me time and effort.
2. FileZilla - Very nice FREE program. I am a big fan of filezilla. I used this product for many years, and I do still use it from time to time. Fast, easy to use program.
3. FlashFXP - A very solid FTP client. Works well and very robust. Never had any interface errors, or crashes. It is not free, but I believe the cost is only $25 to buy.
4. Smart FTP - Another very good program. The interface was just a little over cluttered for me, it takes me a while to get this progam setup just right. Smart FTP has a free version and a paid version costing about $37.
