Groovy

Posted by TimSlavin at January 15, 2004

One of the better parts of running a website is finding odd things in the activity log files. It's like rummaging through a 99 cent store.

This week I discovered someone searched this site using the phrase "groovy." I admit to being a granola boy from south of San Francisco; however, I have never typed that word here. The search turns up nothing. Even more fun, the searcher came from Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, perhaps a groovy hotbed? More likely, suburban Jersey. I do get a lot of traffic from people in search of 1950's and 1960's fonts, a topic that I've blogged a few times. That's probably the answer.

In any event, this week I found a few items of interest: CAN-SPAM: The Reality, Sender Line More Important Than Subject Line, MindJet Brainstorming Software, and Writing Quality Software: A Primer.

I also wrote an article on quality software but from a business point of view, How To Evaluate Programmers, Without Being A Programmer. My experience with programmers makes me hesitant to write on the topic. It's so complex. People are opinionated. But I do run into prospects and clients who want to make sense of something that seems like black magic. They wonder how to evaluate the skills of programmers when they are not programmers and never will be.

In any event, thanks for reading and visiting! Hope you're doing well. Let me know if I can help you.

P.S. BTW, I did get round to creating a favicon.ico for this site but could not decide between a bucking bronco or a bear paw. The bronco perhaps is not so obvious. Your opinion is welcome!
