iPhone

I couldn't help myself...

Time to join the iPhone craze:

4GB:

Apple - iPhone | 4GB (Multi-Purpose Cell Phone)

8GB:

Apple - iPhone | 8GB (Multi-Purpose Cell Phone)

and they (google) came a calling...

In my last post I mentioned that we released a subset of our product database to the search engines. When I say "released" I mean provided links to, as well as, a sitemap.

We've been watching the bots crawl all over us.

If you want to know who's winning the search wars, look no further than our daily crawl stats. Google discovered us quickly and began crawling immediately. Yahoo too discovered us quickly, but their crawl rate is run 10% to 20% that of Google per day. Live (aka MSN) still hasn't figured out (or care) that our site links have expanded from about 10 to 22,000...

Interesting and telling.


My favorite iPod:

Apple iPod™ Shuffle - 2nd Generation 1GB: 240 Songs - Orange (Apple iPod MP3 Player)

and runner-up:

Apple iPod™ nano - 2nd Generation 4GB MP3 Player - Blue (Apple iPod MP3 Player)

let the games begin

Well my hope was to write more often... But its been a busy two months. A lot has happened:

1. We launched www.personafile.com, a first attempt (which will be improved soon). Its comes with a new Personafile logo, for which we need a name.

2. We released a segment of our product database to the search engines. This segment includes about 22,000 products. The implication should be clear: web users will soon be able to find products in the Personafile product database by organic web search. We are still locking out the member-side of Personafile (which of course is where most of the excitement is).

3. We implemented a series of tools that allows us to measure and improve our product venues. All internal stuff.

If you want to play around with the public side of Personafile (and aren't one of our beta testers, meaning you don't have an account), search for something like 'macbook personafile', that should get you right to a product link.

I will really, really try to post more often!
