Ed Charkow’s Super Charged Linking :: Vulnerability MUST READ

Many many years ago I released a reciprocal linking script.  It was passed all over the net, and can probably be downloaded by anyone with just a little effort.  However, it’s VERY old now and there are a number of vulnerabilities in the script.

There are numerous services and more powerful scripts out there today that handle reciprocal linking in more powerful ways.  Hint:  Look for linking services that don’t do one way or even three way links.

I’m putting this post out there because there is no way of contacting all the folks who ever downloaded the script – in fact the mailing list I did maintain has an 80 percent “dead address” rate.  That doesn’t count the hundreds or thousands of folks out there that downloaded from various other places.

Games for your kids — or a huge time sink for you!

So the other day my kid comes to me and says she wants me to get her “zoo tycoon”.  It’s an older game and I could have bought it for just a few bucks somewhere – no big deal.  However I came across a “subscription” site that was really cool.  Basically you download and play as many games as they offer as often as you want as long as you want.

My kids are loving it – the same subscription is running games on 3 computers.

My wife is playing puzzle games, my daughter is playing zoo and animal games, my sons are shooting it up.

I just wish I’d set this up for them for Christmas instead of 2 weeks before   It even lets you set up sub accounts with parental controls.

Video Game Subscription

Now it’s not a perfect service, there are minor glitches that require you to restart your computer occasionally.  But it’s cheaper than buying games that they play for just a few hours and ditch.  It’s let my kids play a lot of games I would never have bought for them.

Hope it helps some of you parents/gamers/etc… out there.

It’s nice to be noticed :)

Apparently I’m to blame for Scribbed changing format. It’s nice to be noticed.

My post is here:  Black Hat Experimental Post – PDF Linking

The other post is here: All My Fault Apparently

I guess with my rambling thoughts I caused them to change – who says one person can’t make a difference?

*yes this is tongue in cheek.   If you really read my post you will see that in both cases I discussed monetizing the content you put on others sites.  No different than a resource box on an article, a link in your profile to your website, etc….  REALLY going black hat on either of those services would require automation.  I guess just because this blog has the words “black hat” in it they assumed it was evil what I discussed there.  I suppose doing guest posts on other blogs, or putting your link in a comment could cause the internet to go no follow as well
