Don't like the idea of uploading large files to a web server and sending a download link to your friends or colleagues? Podmailing is an application/service that aims to solve the same problem as YouSendIt and EatLime -- most email services limit file attachments to 10 or 20MB. But Podmailing takes a very different approach than most other services in this space.

This is a feature I've been asking for in analytics packages for the last 2 years:

This report lets a search marketer actually visualize the healthiness and distribution of their site's keyword-based search traffic. In the example above, I'm showing the report for SEOmoz (which contains data from the past 40-50 days). As you slide your mouse along the graph, you can see that the top 25% of our referrals are made up of searches that have sent ~50+ referrals each, while the bottom 25% (actually, much more) is made up of searches that have sent only a single visitor. Not only does this illustrate the power and importance of the long tail, it helps make the case for a lot of marketing departments strapped for data ammunition.

Today has been a big linking day, between two posts here at Search Engine Journal on link building and blog comment links leading to some intense discussions.

I was running down the Google blended search results for the term "link building" and came across this video which capped of the perfect day, it's the Link Building 101 Rap by some guy named Chuck, the Poetic Prophet from Pop Labs (here's your link Chuck Sizzle)!

One of the trends that many big companies have been slow to recognize — but smaller nimbler companies have jumped on — is the market of Internet entrepreneurs. Internet entrepreneurs means businesses that are online-only or have an online business model, or where a substantial portion of the business involves online operations.

Just a word to the wise. We may all be entering the obscured and twisted words from those weird Captcha illustrations, like the one to the left, every time we send a message using Stumble-Mail. I suppose it is a logical step to take, given that spam is everywhere else on the planet, and the growth of the use of Captcha everywhere. Of course, this may all be mitigated by the recent news that spam-bots could read some Captcha-clues. The games of cat and mouse continue.

Although this is far from being the weirdest union (or proposal, for that matter) we've ever seen, Xanga user p3ng decided to throw tradition to the wind (at least momentarily) when proposing to his now-fiancée. Put simply, he built a custom version of Bejeweled (the lady's favorite game in the whole wide world) in which a pixelated engagement ring scrolled onto the screen once a certain score was hit. Needless to say, his awestruck girlfriend could barely contain her excitement as she uttered "yes," and we absolutely expect the Guitar Zeros to be the house band at the forthcoming reception.
