New blog about Trade and Environment

Marcus Westberg — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 15:31:15 +0000

Just finished a new website for my brother Johan. You can see the result over at the T&E Nexus which is a trade and environment blog. The writer and webmaster of the site is my brother Johan who is very familiar with trade and environment issues. There aren´t that many T&E blogs around and Johan knows his T&E, that´s why I feel this blog will fill a good purpose. It´s perfect for those who wants some insight in the subject and the blog contains a lot of helpful information. I help him with WordPress installation and design/function tweaks.

I wish Johan good luck with the blog and I hope he continues to update the blog frequently.

Google´s Crop circle & Alien abduction logos

Marcus Westberg — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 18:28:22 +0000

The Internet giant Google continues to fascinate the world in a way that only they can. Google sometimes replace their original logo from time to time with another variation of it. For holiday logos etc: See examples here.

Recently Google have used 2 logos that look a bit different. Google updated their Twitter profile Sept 4´th with a cryptic tweet: 1.12.12 25.15.21.18 15 1.18.5 2.5.12.15.14.7 20.15 21.19. They linked that tweet to a twitpic page displaying the logo with the UFO abducting the O (Image below). If you replace that cryptic code with letters (a=1, b=2 etc) you will find that the message is “all your o are belong to us“. This will of course make you think about “all your base are belong to us” which was a hype like 9 years ago or so. In short: The phrase is a line of subtitled dialogue from the introduction to the video game Zero Wing. It is actually still funny even though it´s really old.

So here is my comment to all of this: OOOOO^

Moving the blog

Marcus Westberg — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 03:37:02 +0000

Ok all set. Everything is ready for me to transfer this blog to a new web host and on the way repairing this half broken WordPress installation. The web host that I am using now is just way to slow.

Before the summer I will be able to start bloging more frequently. I figured that this is actually a lot more fun when everything else is in order. I managed to fix a lot of things regarding my own company and my income. So now I will have more time for fun stuff. Like blogging and other more social (well social on the Internet) activities.

Monitor Twitter keywords

I found one really good site. It is called Monitter.com. It´s a site where you can monitor a bunch of Twitter keywords dynamically in real time.

Go there! I found the site via Chris Pirillo. Thanks Chris!

Btw, you can find my Twitter page here: Marcus on Twitter.

Thinking about relaunching this blog

Marcus Westberg — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 20:41:15 +0000

I am considering to get this blog moving again. The idea with this blog in the start was to communicate with other webmasters. During that time I was very interested in SEO and still is. But now I am thinking about getting more stuff in here. There are other aspects to consider if you want to make it as a blogger or with any online business in general.

A lot has happened. I have started my own online marketing company in Sweden about a year ago: Svensk SEO. I have also worked for other Internet marketing companies before I started my own business. I make more money blogging etc now when I have learned and studied all the interesting concepts needed to make it online. It would be fun to share all these stories and also just to start writing in english again.

So.. next step would be to clean this blog from old stuff. I noticed that I don´t even have a PR showing for this domain which is not really a good sign. I think by removing some of the old links will fix this. I have to be more careful with external links. A lot of links points to 404 pages or empty domains.

Ok, that´s it for now.. Later!

11:11

Marcus Westberg — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 13:10:26 +0000

Extreme synchronicity, does it exist? To me it sure does. It has been sneaking up on me like a snake. I have not seen it until now.

11:11 is a phenomenon already known by many people. What it does is that it reminds you of certain specific times during the day by making you pay attention. Most common is 11:11 where people report seeing 11:11 on digital clocks, street signs, receipts and such. There are of course other number combinations as well such as 2:22, 3:33, 4:44 and others that has specific meaning to you.

A lot of people claim that people are seeing numbers such as 11:11 just because their intention is to look for it. That is true to some degree but I myself have been experiencing this and have not been planning to look at the clock etc at specific times. It just happens.

I think that there must be some kind of meaning to this. If I would do it all subconsiously (which some claim) it just proves that the subconsious mind is very powerful and can be used as a tool by you.

I, however constantly have new ideas about why this 11:11 phenomenon is happening. It is nothing you really can define.
