More about Undercoats - You Barely Hold the Glass

December 12, 2011 Stained glass painting techniques

Right! In his last post, Stephen challenged you to do it with one hand
tied behind your back. Undercoating, I mean. And several people wrote
how maybe they were heavy-handed, because no matter how they tried,
their glass always spun away across the light-box. So I reckon the best

Bored? Then Forget the Internet

November 4, 2011 Quick comment

Glass painting is more interesting I am shocked. A recent poll reveals
that 40% of Londoners say they need to be "connected to the internet"
at all times (yes, "all") in order to remove the boredom of queuing.
This means 40% of Londoners are so addicted to distraction (sorry,
Londoners, it's what the poll says) [...]

Enter your search keyword(s) and the keyword "zorgium" into the search input field of http://bing.com, http://yahoo.com or http://google.com.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.

ZORGIUM note to content providers: If you don't want your page to appear in Zorgium's search abstraction then put an exclusion for "Zorgium" in your web server's robots.txt file.
