Goodbye Minoes...

Topics:

Minoes (pronounced as mĭnū·s with emphasis on the second syllable: she was very picky about that) was my furry four-pawed friend for 15 years. Today she died. I'm sad.

Minoes

I'll miss how she spilled puddles of water all over the floor because her water bowl was never at the right spot. I'll miss how she woke me up in the morning by jumping on my gut. I'll miss how she courageously went about life and overcame her fears.

I'll miss her.

Meow!

Blogger Tutorial: the best SEO title tag, Addendum

SEO and XML go hand in hand on the Blogger platform. So do XML and learning, for me at least. After my first post on Blogger and search engine optimization, Blogger Tutorial: the best SEO title tag , I wasn't quite satisfied with the results. On search results, label pages and archive pages, the title still showed ' O'Cor | O'Cor '. I realized that these have their own objects that could be used to display a relevant title. Now, I know that these kinds of pages are not indexed by search robots, so why bother? Well, first I like to challenge myself and to learn new things. Second, it felt like there were some loose ends to tie. I don't like loose ends. Third, I don't really need a reason: it's my personal blog and I can do as I like (and it feels GOOD!). So, I set about learning on how to optimize the title tag even more. After a sleep deprived night (almost), I think I came up with a satisfying result. If you wish to jump to the code and don't...

It's here, it's great and it's Not Over Yet!

A funky organ, a funky brass section, a steaming rhythm section, easily the best guitar player this part of the western hemisphere (okay, not counting Jan Akkerman) and the most soulful smokey singer you have ever heard. All of that and gorgeously crafted songs, a lot of soul and passion. That's the new album Not Over Yet by fusion veterans Back to Basic. It was released yesterday, June 25th. For me this is no doubt the best album Back to Basic has ever released. And that's saying a lot. I suggest you install Equalizer APO , plug in your earphones and have a listen: The album is available on many music platforms, including YouTube (see above) and Spotify and can be purchased via Amazon , among others. For me this is no doubt the best album Back to Basic has ever released. And that's saying a lot. Review Honestly, what's not to like? Admittedly, to some young folks out there the band's members may look like old rockers. And I guess they are that too...

Best music software you (n)ever knew

Ultimately, it's not money that makes the world go 'round. It's music! From the first music I ever bought (a greatest hits album by Golden Earring on ... wait for it: cassette tape!) to hard-rock, disco, classical music, funk, soul, latin, jazz, blues and so much more, I have always enjoyed music. I have some 500 albums on vinyl and some 700 on cd. I know it's not the largest collection of music by far, but it's dear to me and holds many memories. Whether precious or painful, they're part of my life and always will be. Last year I started considering the possibility to digitize my music collection. Even with 'only' 1200 albums it looked like a daunting task. With most cd's it was easy enough to do. Some cd's had copy protection though. Also, I don't own a USB record player, so digitizing my vinyl albums was going to be a challenge. In this post I will share with you the seven software applications I used to make the process a little les...
