Try Mango is now working!!!
I posted about a site called [tag]TryMango.com[/tag] and was not very happy that the site did not work at all in any browser! One of my life goals is to [tag]learn Spanish[/tag] so I kept trying and to my shear joy, yesterday the site worked.
I tried a few of the lessons and I was impressed. This weekend when I have more time to play with it, I will get a better idea of how good of a learning tool it will be for me.
Today [tag]Yahoo[/tag] has added a new feature to it’s search. The new feature is similar to the [tag]Google toolbar [/tag]recommended [tag]search results[/tag]. As you type your search query Yahoo opens a [tag]widget[/tag] below with recommended search terms. I assume they are suggesting terms that they know are similar, based on user data. I am a big fan of the feature, so I can’t wait to try it out.
I put together a short video on how to make your [tag]WordPress blog[/tag] [tag]URL[/tag]s [tag]search engine friendly[/tag]. It’s a simple task, but can help you out tremendously in your effort to [tag]rank[/tag] on the front page of the major search engines.
How it works: WordPress takes advantage of the [tag].htacess file[/tag] to do a [tag]URL re-write[/tag].
The default setting: http://www.trafficisgold.com/?p=123
URL re-write change: http://www.trafficisgold.com/2007/09/24/wordpress-23-is-now-available/
Check out the video and if you have any questions just leave a comment and I will see what I can do to help.
Introducing Sketch Cast. SketchCast.com allows you to [tag]whiteboard[/tag] your ideas and share them via the web. Think the [tag]UPS whiteboard [/tag]commercials with the ability to post in your [tag]blog[/tag] for the rest of the world to see. [tag]Traffic is Gold[/tag] uses a lot of screen casting using [tag]Camtasia[/tag], so naturally [tag]SketchCast.com[/tag] caught my attention.
If I can find a good use for sketch cast out side of my regular usage of Camtasia, you may see it on this site. The technology looks cool, so check it our when you have sometime to brainstorm on the white board.

UPDATE
I had to take the video down as it was casuing my site to not load. You can see the video on their site.
We have seen in our [tag]Wordpress dashboard [/tag]the coming of 2.3. Today we welcome [tag]Dexter[/tag] or 2.3. Get the latest version here. I guess the biggest news of this release is [tag]tagging[/tag], [tag]tag clouds[/tag] and better [tag]URL handling[/tag]. The SEO crowds are cheering!! Check out the release notes for full updated items.
While I am glad to have an update, which means more features and more security. It also means I have to update about 15 blogs… It’s going to be a long night.
