I just got some great tips from some of my contacts and visitors on –>MyBlogLog
which you can see in my sidebar.
They reminded me that great content and links to Technorati, Furl, del.icio.us, are not enough to generate visitors.

Kabati had this great idea that he posted on how to increase your Technorati links, which I have copied below.
Just one thing: you have to copy the html or the links won’t work.
So try it out. And Thanks –>Kabati and –>MWhatli

***Start Copying Here***

Here are the rules:

1. Write a short introduction paragraph about how you found the list and include a link to the blog that referred you to the list.

2. COPY the Rules and ENTIRE List below and post it to your blog. To avoid duplicate content and increase the amount of keywords your site can accessible for, go ahead and change the titles of the blog. Just don’t change the links of the blog.

3. Take ‘My New Faves’ and move them into the ‘The Original Faves’ list.

4. Add at least 3 Blogs that you’ve just added to your Technorati Favorites to the ‘My New Faves’ section. Remember to also add the ‘Fave Me’ link next to your new blogs (i.e. http://technorati.com/faves?add=http://www.yourdomain.com)

5. Add Everyone on this list to your Technorati Favorites List by clicking on ‘Fave the Site.’ (Please FAVE EVERYONE on the List prior to posting the list or a Kitten will Die Alone in a Dark Alley Tonight). Those who want good karma will fave you back. If not, you will for sure get the benefits of faves from the bloggers who continue this list after you.

Web Magic – Ancient Magic – Electric Dreams
When you begin to dream in HTML, in Joomla, in WordPress, have you conquered the ‘Learning Curve’ of each?

While trying to learn how to use HTML to design a web page in 2001, I began to dream in HTML. Understanding HTML soon followed. And my first primitive website on Tripod began to take shape. To promote my novel, Sun Child, Prince of Egypt.



It’s still up, click here–> StarWalkerProductions.tripod.com. What a mess! Well, it’s a free site.
To get to the proper index page go to, click here–> My Tripod Home Page

At the time, I struggled with CGI and email, dodged CSS, and learned how to create graphics first on a Compac notebook, which I ‘blew up’, and then on my old Mac OS 8.6 Powerbook, and use them on borrowed Windows internet access (usually the Library’s).

There was one thing that made this all begin to click in my mind. I was also researching the ‘hieroglyphs’ of Ancient Egypt, their ‘Sacred Symbols’, the “Medu Neter”; and Egyptian Magic. There was a particular emphasis on using the Medu Neter in always the same way, written the same, spoken the same, or the ’spell’(?) wouldn’t work.

The idea popped into my head after one of those ‘electric dreams’ that the hieroglyphs were like HTML. What if they were a system, a language, a code to universal programs, operating systems? After all their civilization dominated the know world for 3,000 years. Maybe this was all just an ancient technology the knowledge of which has been lost in time.

There are many now exploring this possibility and their theories can be found around the web. For instance, Nur Ankh Amen’s theories on
The Ankh: African Origins of Electromagnetism”

There are others who suggest that other scientists besides Egyptologists, Archaeologists, Biblical or religious scholars, begin to study the ancient records of this ancient language for clues to their lost technologies. This is becoming easier for scholars and scientists in other disciplines to do with the advent of many easy ways to learn to read, write and understand hieroglyphs, many on the Web.

Regardless, an understanding of how Ancient Egyptian Magic worked is possible by just by understanding how HTML works, along with all the other applications and systems. And visa versa.

To help you along, I’ve posted some beginning definitions and ideas about Egyptian Magic along with topics on the Web.

What‽ ‽ ‽
Karl Fisch, Director of Technology at Arapahoe High School, Centennial, Colorado, created this presentation for a faculty meeting, to get the faculty thinking about and discussing the 21st Century world their students would be dealing with.

I think everyone should see it, to understand the advances in knowledge, technology and global populations we all face. So did the presentation’s creator Karl Fisch, who gave everyone permission to use it. See what he says about it on his blog–>TheFischBowl.blogspot
See the full size version–> Did You Know? Flash version
I discovered it through blog called–> ThatsCool, and his other blog—> A Random Walk.
