Lighter side of Internet: time for some fun stuff
March 6, 2008 – 11:39 pm
It’s friday again, and looking back at my previous posts, I realize that there is some thing seriously missing on our RedAlkemi blog – yeah…’No Fun stuff‘. So I just thought of sharing some cool things, I came across this week on Internet. Yes, its funny but still there is a lot you can learn from each. Sit back and enjoy !
- The No.1 spot is occupied by Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales and his estranged girlfriend Rachel Marsden who has been auctioning off clothing belonging to Jimmy on eBay. Jimmy is facing public humiliation after he apparently used his website Wikipedia to break-up with his girlfriend and Canadian TV personality Rachel Marsden.
I call it nothing but a terrible ‘Reputation Management Error’. Ain’t it funny?
- The No.2 spot goes to this cool comic representation of Yahoo rejecting MSN’s rescue offer. I know it has been quite a while now but I still found it worth sharing. Have a look at the lighter side of e-visibility (I just loved that Goooogle airplane).
- The No.3 spot is taken by this cool link strategy chart I stumbled on. Even though not so hilarious, but it’s a fun representation of a very effective and an updated link building strategy. Although I found it really cool, but the designer of this pdf chart deserves my thumb down (some text there is little hard to read). Download the pdf, it’s still worth paining your eyes.
So with this fun post I wish you all a rocking weekend ahead! I hope you enjoyed the stuff as much as I did. Cheers !

Wow, thanks for giving a shout out about the Link Building Poster, glad you found it cool - as one of the content writers for that bad boy, I won’t lie, I’m proud of it (it was actually hard not to go MORE in depth!)
If you have any suggestions cotent OR design-wise, please let us know - we ain’t too proud to take advice, that’s for sure! Anything we can do to better the resources we’re trying to offer.
Could I just ask specifically which text was really tough to read? I’m sure we’ll be updating this periodically, and that may be a change we have to make. If you could email me about that, I’d appreciate it!
I think I’m off to read some more of your posts…looks like good stuff!

Glad to hear that you enjoyed our link building chart! Sorry to hear that you’re not a fan of the design… However Id like to point out that this marketing tool is 36in X 30in in it’s full printed size, so while you certainly couldn’t read all of it off these images, if you download the PDF, print it, (or order it) you’ll find the point sizes of the copy are well suited for easy reading at a *cough* modest 18pt type.
Again, thanks very much for the review! I love when people post fun stuff like this!

Yes Ashal, this might be the reason why I was having hard time reading this chart - I viewed the poster in my pdf viewer (not a printed copy). The red check boxes n diaognal stripes are louder than the text. May be you can present this poster in two formats - one readable n the other printable format.
And I am glad that you liked our blog. Thanks !
