Margaritaville Wikipedia edit

I just added another picture to the Wikipedia article on Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville... the one of the ceiling painted like the eye of a hurricane in Key West. This place is pretty awesome and I wish I was down there right now!

Anyone see the Phills game last night? Utley's homer and Ruiz's single for the W?! Ashame they're down right now...

ALS Wikipedia edit

I just added the "research" section to the Wikipedia article on ALS. I found all of this information on ALS Association website under the "Research" tab.

Oh yea... anyone see the Phill's game today? Finally another W... what a horrible start this season. :(

Don Imus - Global Neighbourhoods

Ok so now that the Don Imus scandal has died down, I thought I would comment on Shel Israel's insight on the broad picture. On his blog Global Neighbourhoods (12 April 2007), Shel had a few words to say about the technological and cultural relations to this incident. I liked how he wished the outcome of the event would have happened in a simpler fashion: "I would have hoped that people would have listened to this shock jock for a minute or two and decide for themselves that this guy offers nothing but drivel and crap and would have walked away, making Imus lacking in value to sponsors and broadcast networks to begin with." His best line was,"Market revulsion is the best censor." Neglecting to draw attention to the act of ignorance WOULD have been the best way to react.

I believe that CBS had every right in letting Don go if he was not ethically and morally representing their company. However, he is known to be controversial and they should have seen this coming. On behalf of Don, what about his rights under the 1st amendment? I am by NO means defending his words, but every story has 2 sides.

Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville 1st Wikipedia edit

I just made my first Wikipedia edit to the article on Margaritaville. I added "In 1985, Buffett opened the first of the "Margaritaville" restaurants in Key West. In 2002, Buffett expanded his business ventures by opening his first Cheeseburger in Paradise Restaurant" as well as the two photos under the Restaurant and Store Locations section.

I guess my wikipedia edits prove that I LOVE warm weather! I hope to move down to Florida after graduation! I hate the weather up here!!

Ohhhh yea... make sure you check out stiuqxela. I am not a big Packers fan (I love Philly teams... Phillies and Eagles), I would love to see how high I can get in the Google and Yahoo! search results for stiuqxela!!

Sloppy Joe's Wikipedia edit

I just made my first Wikpedia edit to the Sloppy Joe's article. Sloppy Joe's is a bar/restaurant on Duval Street in Key West and is pretty awesome. I added the mixed drink menu from their website and included a reference.

Stiuqxela, stiuqxela, stiuqxela... oh what can this be?!?!

Well, being that I didn't fully explain the stiuqxela experiment in my last post, I thought that it would make more sense to describe what stiuqxela actually represents. The term "stiuqxela" is a word Prof Brown made up for an experiment. Each student is supposed to blog about stiuqxela and link that word to the Green Bay Packers website. The goal of the experiment is to be ranked numero uno in a Google search of stiuqxela and to also have the Packers website appear in the search results of stiuqxela. Sooooo Google stiuqxela and see what comes up... Has anyone tried to pronounce stiuqxela? Innnnteresting!! Good luck with the stiuqxela experiment!! :)

stiuqxela experiment

Soooooo... as per Prof Brown's search engine experiment here is our new word stiuqxela. I hope it works!!!
