I bought a portable DAB+ radio from Aldi this week. While it only takes 0.5 Watt to play music, the same as music streaming on a Pixel 6, it's over 10x the power needed to run my most efficient portable analogue FM radio. It's a bargain travel FM/DAB/MP3 player though. €22.

Ok, let's get this party started! A couple weeks ago I said I was publishing the most important thing I ever wrote. I was wrong. Documentation related to the Google Search algorithm leaked and I spent the weekend tearing it apart. ipullrank.com/google-algo-le… ✌🏾

This Google leak is a fascinating insight into a document information database but to me it looks like an internal system for testing algos. All algo teams would test using this and then the results would help develop the efficient (quick, cheap) version for production.

Off to #digitalolympus we go. See you in Eindhoven, probably still wet from the rainclouds that threaten my route today.

I counted the 'factors' I designed into my product database via which I could choose and 'rank' products coming out of that database. It turns out that I don't use half of the 'factors' that I designed into my database in my final 'algorithm.' #googleleak

Twitter redirects boosted x[.com] visibility in search this month while twitter[dot]com remained flat. Now x[.com] is falling. Big numbers too. x[.com]was the 163rd biggest website in UK search at its peak. If Twitter fails in search it opens up a lot of space for others. 🍿

Exciting upgrades in the new Lenovo Duet 3 Chromebook. I use a 2022 version all the time when travelling. MediaTek Kompanio 838 and 16Gb upgrade will take it into a much more productive space. chromeunboxed.com/hands-on-with-…

24 years old. Still an amazing production. Jill Scott.

I will try to read more while commuting this winter. I'm not sure I really need the GoPro because I think I might still need to take the smartphone for authenticator and maps. Phone data will be off! Kindle Hero 9 105 4G
