Getting Around Again
Aug 23rd
Posted by Ike in Communication
I had a lot of fun hearing from my readers around the globe. If Occam’s RazR readers held hands in a single line, they’d stretch around the Earth! (Assuming of course their arms are all 200 miles long.)
So – here’s another snapshot of my readership:

Last 25 visitors as of this post, and we have:
- Brazil
- France
- U.K.
- Germany
- Canada
Not bad. But ironic, that my closest reader at that moment was in Savannah, Georgia. 333 miles away. The prophet is not celebrated at home…

Getting Around
Aug 7th

“I’ve been everywhere, man.”
– Johnny Cash
There are times that I just don’t know how to count.
My little Feedburner counter says there are some 61 people or so who care enough about what I have to say that they want it pushed to them. (Or they care so little about it they don’t want to expend the energy to come here to see it.)
Yet, when I look at where these readers are, and how they get here, it’s a little mind-boggling: More >
Expanding the Occamverse
Jul 20th
Posted by Ike in Communication
Things have been busy, both with the job and with the crazy musings that occasionally churn my brain. Not every cogitation of consequence makes it to this site – especially those that would appeal to a specialized niche audience.
(You, by virtue of reading this, are a specialized niche – but I doubt you’re all hanging on to my every thought about the future of public relations, reputation management, and marketing influence.)
I’ve got a couple of essays floating in the void that should find a home on other blogs in the next few days. They would call me a “guest blogger.” I would call me a interloper – an unlicensed driver who got the keys to dad’s convertible and wants to feel the wind in my hair.
Maybe it’s time for another Venn…

Cleaning up
Jun 30th
I had a couple of minor issues to square away. Apparently, on my last upgrade I didn’t reactivate the “Linkage for Thinkage” list in the sidebar. That’s just a select list of links that I thought were cool, thought-provoking, or otherwise noteworthy.
Since I can’t remember how long it has been missing in action, I’ve extended the list so you might not miss any of the choice cuts from the internet.
That is all…
Flight Tracker
Jun 22nd
It’s great to be home for a while… no extended travel anywhere on the near horizon.
That’s a good thing, as I’ve got kids’ birthdays to worry concern happily conjure in July and August. It’s also a good thing because I almost got used to living out of a suitcase.
I knew travel would be an issue with the new job. Enough of an issue that had it been offered a year earlier, I wouldn’t have accepted. The kids are a little older though, and remember me when I come home. Mostly.
I added a little feature to the sidebar. Each of these icons represents a flight I’ve been on since January 1st. Thirty-one of them since the start of this blog. At some point, if I get really bored, I’ll add roll-over effects that give you information about each specific flight. Yeah, that’s the ticket.

Anagram Maker
Jun 16th
Posted by Ike in Communication
Thanks to Scott over at the Media Orchard, for finding me the Internet Anagram Server.
Without his help, I’d have never known that “Media Orchard” was really just a re-spelling of “Admired Roach.” You know – that adorable little pest that you can’t seem to shake.
There must be truth to these – as “Occam’s RazR” yields “Czar’s Macro,” loosely translated as “The shortcut fit for a king!” That’s making better communication simple.

Misdirection Redirected
Jun 15th
Posted by Ike in Communication
It’s amazing how much you can learn from your mistakes.
I’ve now cracked the code on my own site, and have established proper redirection from the old location to the occamsrazr domain.
This means that old links will eventually find their way to the proper post. My rankings will take a hit – but a small one. While I was at it, I went ahead and skipped up to WordPress 2.2.
Those of you still on Blogger or another platform – come to the light… all is well. I can help you move…
