Thierry Henry joins Barcelona

Well, sad news for Gooners such as my sister (jess.bootc.net), as the Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has put pen-to-paper on a 4-contract to join Spanish La Liga giants Barcelona for £16m.

Great player, shame he’s leaving Arsenal. Best of luck to him, though.

Poorly-sick!

I am poorly-sick. I have a bad cold (again) and so have not been doing very much productive stuff recently. I intend to get some of my presentation for American parties, elections and campaigns done soon. I have started, but really need to make some progress.

As well as this, I have signed up to Facebook. Here is my Facebook profile.

The Beautiful South split up

The Beautiful South After 19 years together, my favourite band, The Beautiful South, have split up today. While this is a shame and I will miss them releasing their occasional bizarre albums, I think their best years have been and gone. They will be remembered by me at least as a great British band, who were - at their finest - regardless of genre or style, one of the most political bands of the 1990s.

I look forward to seeing what Paul Heaton and co will produce in the future (after all, the Beautiful South first formed from the Housemartins split).

Trying to think of a witty or otherwise non-pretentious lyric I can quote here is going to be very difficult. So I wont bother. If you haven’t listend to the South yet though, buy Carry On Up The Charts. 1/7 households have ;)!

Wikipedia adds “nofollow” back to external links

Well, the huge decision to be made by Wikipedia whether or not they would re-introduce the rel=”nofollow” attribute to external links has been made: sure enough, “nofollow” is back!

What this means is that in terms of most of the leading search engines (Google and MSN mainly) no longer give weight to the external links on any of the Wikipedia site in terms of ranking. (It has been pointed out to me by Andy Beard that Yahoo does in fact use ‘nofollow’ tags - thanks Andy!)

In my opinion, this is good news, as it will quickly stop black-hat SEO players from abusing the wiki in order to gain a higher rank in Google or PageRank. On the other hand, it seems a shame that deserving sites are not gaining some of the status they arguably deserve.

What is the overall opinion? Good Wikipedia, or bad Wikipedia?
