TB,
through some googling, I found a sacrifice of pound cake recommendation for santeria. You are to go to the ocean and sacrifice the pound cake (or to a river and leave fruit):
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

People who more about SEO than I do - does word order matter when trying cram keywords into a page's title? I've been banging my head against a wall trying to convince our marketing team that we *really* should have the NAME OF THE COMPANY be the first word in our homepage's title (so it's still visible even if the user minimizes the window or navigates to another tab).

I received a google wave invitation today! Thank you! When I have the ability to invite others, I will.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yay! I'm glad they're finally going out.
(I also think it was a HUGE mistake on Google's part not to give people the ability to invite others instantly, even if it meant starting with a smaller beta pool -- there's essentially nothing you can do to try it out without contacts, and I think a lot of people got it and looked and went, "okay, but what does it do?")

lifehacker has a great article about Wave, and one of the first commands they tell people to use is "with:public" - it is overwhelming, but I'm digging reading all the waves.

yeah, with:public is fun (and vaguely early-internettish, in that delusion of being able to see it all way)

It reminds me of when I started using tweetgrid and followed some trending topics. Everything just scrolling on down in waves of info.
