More proof that Australia is out of touch

September 12, 2006

This article on SEO from Australian IT. As Threadwatch headlines it: “Australian IT Now Teaching SEO Tricks from 1997”. This from our national newspaper. Yikes. I some journalists wonder why people are moving away from the MSM to blogs and other alternative news sources.

In Bizarre, Web 2.0

    “link farms” – holy fucking shit!

    “link monkeys” – you mean comment spam!

    Are you kidding me. More proof that mainstream media in Australia are sooo far out of touch publishing such rubbish.

    And the sad fact is that many folks will be reading this and going yes, I should be doing this.

    I don’t know why they even bother covering these topics if they can’t even come close to getting it right for 2006 and not 1999.

    Shit: “link farms” it’s so pathetic that you gotta laugh.

    Hi Duncan,

    There is a lot more to that article, check the comments on TW. I also have more Aussie spammer info on my little psuedo blog.

    Cheers Mate!
