OOH! Essentials of search engine optimization
This week in Online Office Hours, I’ll talk about the fundamentals of search engine optimization — organic search versus paid search, what PageRank is, what matters to search engines and what doesn’t, simple steps to make your website friendly for search engines, and more.
This will be an entry-level discussion. If search engines are a mystery to you, this will be a good start to unraveling that mystery. And if you know a bit about SEO but have a specific question, we’ll have time to discuss that as well.
Online Office Hours webinars are free, but you need to register online. Sign up now for tomorrow’s session, and while you’re thinking about it you might also join our mailing list to get reminders of upcoming webinars via email.

Related Posts:Third Day Of Preliminary Auditions Set For “Potential Inertia”
Auditions for our feature film are scheduled for Sunday, February 5th, from 12-5pm, in the Impromptu Room of Art on Elm, 228 Elm Street, in downtown Oil City, PA. Those of you who have already auditioned need not attend.
DECLAN HOLMES – 21. Declan is an Everyman. He’s a screenwriting student at a university and is about to graduate and step into the “real-world”. He’s self-loathing and narcissistic at the same time. Has recently been abandoned by his fiance. ‘Potential Inertia’ is his story — in the context of the film, but also within the film.
OLIVIA ALEXANDER – 21. Olivia is spunky and wise for her young age. She’s cute, but not too beautiful. She has sort of a rough side to her that isn’t quite apparent — but it’s there, and it’s overshadowed by a simple tenderness.
KATIE WILLIAMS – 21. Stunningly beautiful. While she appears strong, there is an underlying nervousness and child-like fear about what she wants in many aspects of her life. She was engaged to Declan.
PROFESSOR ROBERT STEMMLER – 44. Professor of Cinema, Robert (or Bob) knows the industry well, but for some reason has opted for education rather than practice. He is Declan’s mentor and friend.
SARAH HOLMES – 19. Declan’s younger sister. Pre-med. Smart and quick.
WILLIE EDWARDS – 21. One of Declan’s inner-circle of friends. Has a thing for Sarah.
JACOB GOURLEY – 21. Another one of Declan’s friends. Willie’s best pal.
KEVIN WHALEN – 21. Probably Declan’s closest friend, as he confides in him more than the others.
MR. HOLMES – 50′s. Bedridden in a hospital. His relationship with his son has always been rocky.
There are several minor speaking roles available along with a great amount of extras. If you are interested in being an extra, please send us an email to potentialinertiamovie@gmail.com
AUDITION SIDES WILL BE AVAILABLE AT THE PHYSICAL AUDITION and not before. You will be given ample time to look over any scene you wish to audition with before the actual audition. However, the producers may wish for you to read more than one scene, so be prepared to cold read if requested.
Any questions can be directed to the Director, Matt Croyle, at 814.676.3532

What does a bill like PIPA/SOPA mean to our shareable world?
“What does a bill like PIPA/SOPA mean to our shareable world? At the TED offices, Clay Shirky delivers a proper manifesto — a call to defend our freedom to create, discuss, link and share, rather than passively consume.“
Clay Shirky: “Sopa and Pipa would create a consumption-only internet” on guardian.co.uk
Clay Shirky elegantly explains the most chilling aspect of SOPA/PIPA:
“The scary bit of legalese here is the idea that the law would apply not just to actual copyright violations (the nominal goal of the law) but to any site that was “facilitating the activities” of copyright infringement, a term nowhere defined but vague enough to include mentioning the existence of such sites, which is enough to make them findable. Like a fast-spreading virus, the proposed censorship moves outwards from the domain name system, to include any source of public web content in the US.
“If the phrase “any source of public web content” seems like a dry detail, substitute the name of your favourite web publisher: you.”
