Audio recording of accuse meeting



We had an extremely interesting meeting yesterday evening. We
discussed a number of things and one of those things that Richard
discussed in detail was the Cornforth strategies Yahoo egroup.

The audio recording of the meeting is posted on the http://j-accuse.blogspot.com blog so that it went out to Carol's group and anyone subscribed to her group or who follows what is posted on the blog.

As promised, I did ask Richard about Chuck Conces and Richard gave his
approval of Chuck and his work. However, I also spoke to him about the
problem of associate referall links which are links that carry a
question mark and then some combination of numbers and or letters and
he is in complete agreement with me that such links should not be
allowed.

Discussion about some other researcher either pro or con is very
acceptable but in general we need to refrain from giving links at all
unless it is to some official state or government or court website, a
media resource or some such thing as that.

This is just common courtesy to the host of whatever forum one might
be in. Posting links to competing websites or forums is just plain
rude since it tends to lead others away from the discussion group and
in many cases the reader who follows the link never comes back.

Another reason it is an unacceptable practice is because search engine
spiders do crawl the egroups and message forums from time to time and
one of the prime things that those spiders are looking for is links.
If that link happens to lead to some web site that the webmaster or
owner or moderator of this forum (for example) disapproves of or which
happens to carry some inappropriate comment or content the spiders
pick that up and the two sites become "associated" with each other.
That is not good.

So in general let's be very sparing with links. If someone wants to go
see what you are referring to they can do a search for that site. If
the site is to an official or otherwise trusted site then fine. No
problem. Obviously the rules or guidelines on that cannot be strictly
enforced because to do so would stifle conversation and turn people
off badly so all I normally intend to do is ask people to use
discretion when posting links to other sites. Links can end up being
very helpful or can have unintended results.

Linking is one of the key issues in search engine optimization and
many webmasters go to great lengths and even pay high prices for links
to the right web sites. Getting mention and linked to one's web site
or blog on another web site or blog can be a big boost for the web
site receiving the incoming link or it can be a very bad thing
publicity wise depending on many factors. Search engine optimization
and linking are extremely important and a subject that I am constantly
studying as well. Content and linking are the two keys to top search
engine rankings. How that content is placed on the page is also very
important but of course I'm not going to worry about that kind of
stuff here in this forum and you folks don't need to worry about it
either.

Anyway, the audio from last night's meeting is on the j-accuse blog
and there is also a link to the proper codec (player) there as well.
The reason I use the Sony dvf format is because it makes extremely
compressed files so uploading and downloading as well as storage space
is kept to a bare minimum. The file is about an hour and a half long
and there was a lot of joking around and laughing for the first few
minutes but once things got settled in it was a great meeting.
