When I’m on the road and generally hangin with my fellow rockstar it’s all about how we roll. We drink top shelf booze, ride around in limos, get invited to cool pre-launch events and private parties, get to wander around the Googleplex stealing the http://spamreport posters and looking for booze and all manner of other rockstarish things. It’s how we roll…until we get home.

I’ve been home all weekend and here’s how we roll on the Friesen homestead:

• swimming lessons – I have to go in the pool with the kids
• cleaned the garage – 3 hours
• washed the wife’s minivan – my truck is still filthy
• mowed the lawn
• hung pictures
• mounted smoke detectors in the kids rooms
• fixed the broken gate latch
• cleaned the bbq
• watched Bob the Builder, My Little Pony, Caillou, Dora the Explorer and more
• took the kids to the pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins (that will rot on my doorstep)
• changed various burned out light bulbs
• read books while a 2 yr tried poopin on the potty again and again
• organized the recycling bins

And that my friends is how I roll. Now I’m off to watch Veggie Tales…

On April 15, 2007 Greg Boser and I did a 3 hour SEO workshop at the Web 2.0 Expo. It was an absolutely kick-ass session and quit arguably the most fun I’ve had on a panel in a long time. The presentation actually became Q and A for over 2 hours and the audience was great. The question were almost all advanced and it the crowd was very receptive and hungry to learn. Since that time I’ve been getting a ton of requests for a copy of the presentation so I figured I’d put it up here for the world to read.

(well more for profit than fun obviously)

Last night Greg and I had Graywolf on SEO Rockstars with us and he laid it out about gaming digg and myspace with some scripts, multiple accounts and some creative thinking. It was a very interesting show. At the end of the day any social network that controls the kind of traffic that digg, myspace, squidoo, etc control is going to be a target of spammers and automation (that’s the profit part).

Head over to WebmasterRadio.FM and grab the archive of show. It’s a good listen.

It really is…really…seriously live. Greg and I will be updating it on a regular basis to request show ideas and feedback etc. Stop on by and check it out.

This just in:

Matt Cutts has agreed to come on SEO Rockstars with me and WebGuerrilla next Tuesday (January 31, 2006) at 4pm PST.

Let’s start gathering up questions and rants for him Feel free to post in this thread until we get off our asses and get the SEO Rockstars blog redesigned and fully launched.

Well I’m very pleased that WebGuerrilla will be joining me on a permanent basis on SEO Rockstars on WebmasterRadio.FM. I’m sorry to say farewell to my long time cohost bakedjake but I know his schedule simply didn’t allow him to stay on. Jake, my brother, I wish you all the best and anytime you want to come on the show just pop me a note and we’ll relive old times

So what does the future hold for SEO Rockstars? A few things:
1 – www.seorockstars.com will actually launch with a blog for the show
2 – Greg and I will actually plan shows in advance
3 – Special Guests – Matt Cutts will be joining us for a show in the next few weeks for starters
4 – back to the seo – we’ve been doing fluff bits for too long now – tools, tips, tricks all coming your way

Tune in every Tuesday at 4pm PST (7pm EST).

Well I did make it back home from Pubcon in Las Vegas last week. Tip of the hat to Tabke and crew for a good show all around. It seems that 9 practice shows have had their impact – Pubcon X was the best yet from where I was standing.

It was great to hang out with old and new friends and as usual watch Dax (rumored President of WebGuerrilla) get in some sort of shit. I’m taking up a collection to buy him some decent shoes so we don’t all wind up in the lobby again. Seriously tho – I’ll bet he paid 3X what I paid for my shoes

MSN has really stepped up the webmaster relationship game as well by taking me out for dinner (well, there were a few other’s there as well including Jenstar). We had some awesome Russian food at Red Square then headed into the vodka vault for some pineapple vodka. Was lots of fun.

I don’t even have the words…

Hurricane Wilma is causing some havoc down by the WMR studios. Hopefully we’ll be back next week.
