Smaug Meetings

We will be meeting on Thursday instead of Monday. Please check on the email list or Facebook about that.

Our meetings will now be held at the Asana teahouse in downtown Santa Cruz, at 103 Lincoln St, between Pacific Ave and Todal Fitness. Taqueria Vallarta is around the corner and a block down Pacific, at 1101 Pacific.

An exception will be Wednesday, 30 December, when we will have a meeting instead of the following day, New Year's Eve.

The meeting time is now 7:30 pm. Some people may wish to show up earlier, and that's fine, but bring your own extension cord if you need one!

Note: Our old meeting location - Tiny's - reopened on 6/15 as an IHOP

We have sometimes used the new IHOP as a meeting place. Their wi-fi signal isn't very good, so far, so we are back downtown for the time being.

Content is King for Technology Blogs

Submitted by mikeholcim on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 02:53

The internet may be overwhelming you with billions of pages and search results everyday the moment you type a word or phrase in a search engine page and hit "search."

The web is now more convenient and useful. Especially now that each webpages pulled up from the cyberspace and shown on the user's laptop or pc monitor is filled with rich-content.

This is because the internet works in the concept of "content" and "resources."

Content of websites are now optimized, relevant and as much as possible, each website attempts to lock its readers and visitors to only visit the site and feed on the site's content.

With these, blogs or websites dealing with IT, technology, internet buzz and all about the web space should be able to catch up to these trend.

Most technology websites resorted to user-generated content, an easy way to get fresh contents and have several visits and subscribers daily. Others use a wiki-platform that follows the type-and-post rule. Other technology sites, use blog, usually updated daily or thrice a week. Other technology blogs post research paper studies, database of articles and essays.

This way, the internet is now getting bulkier with all these contents and information piling up.

Now, more than ever, content writing, article or essay writing is now getting more necessary for each websites and there is definitely a requirement for more online writers.
