New Blog Game – BackLink To Me!

Here is a new blog game that we all can play. It is called BackLink To Me. This is a new and fun blog game that we all can play, which will help us increase our backlinks. Backlinks, as we all know, is the foundation to a successful or increased Google PageRank. If you want to increase your Google PageRank, you have to increase the number of backlinks to your site and almost as importantly, your secondary or (deep linked) pages. Backlinks are a collection of other pages on the Net that link back to your site or page within your site. Playing the new blog game, BackLink To Me will help you increase the number of sites that link to your site.

Hello! My Name Is Carmine. My website is at http://cgrossi.blogspot.com . I have a BackLink to Tempting Magazines . Here is how the game works:

1. Create a new post and title it, New Blog Game – BackLink To Me.
2. Copy my entire post and paste it into your new post.
3. Change my name to your name.
4. Change my website address to your website address
5. Change the name of the person I have a backlink to my name! ( Change Eches Blog link to Tempting Magazine’s link of this post to make a connected chain of blogs)
6. Link my name back to the url of this post!

By participating in this blog game your site and one deep link page within your site will be a link in a huge chain of blogs that are all connected together. Google bots visit our sites daily (not sure if you knew that). By keeping our chain of links all together in a continuously growing circuit, we gain and increase a united linking strength. I want those Google Bots to visit all of our pages so that we all can have an improved Google PageRank.

If you decide to play the new blog game, please remember to link directly to this post, not my home page. I already have a link to that here on this post.

leave a comment so i can keep track :)

Near-Earth Asteroid 2004 MN4 Reaches Highest Score To Date On Hazard Scale

A recently rediscovered 400-meter Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA) is predicted to pass near the Earth on 13 April 2029. The flyby distance is uncertain and an Earth impact cannot yet be ruled out. The odds of impact, presently around 1 in 300, are unusual enough to merit special monitoring by astronomers, but should not be of public concern. These odds are likely to change on a day-to-day basis as new data are received. In all likelihood, the possibility of impact will eventually be eliminated as the asteroid continues to be tracked by astronomers around the world.

Steam Update On Counter-Strike and Half-Life 2: Aftermath

Steam's News Update has been released for this week and includes the first screenshot of Half-Life 2: Aftermath!

The next big Counter-Strike release is set to include two maps. The first map will be de_port, previously mentioned here. This map is set in a resupply port for outgoing ships. The gameplay is designed for a balanced layout employing a mix of long sightlines with cover and close quarters fighting environments. The second map will be a completely redone de_inferno, a historical favorite at CS tournaments and competions. We'll be releasing some screenshots or other media from both of these maps in the next week or two.



We also promised a sneak peek into work on Half-Life 2: Aftermath. Here is a shot from that, the continuation of Gordon Freeman’s adventures that we'll be releasing as an episode later this summer.

Tomorrow's Net Speeds Could be up to 1,600% Faster

"The sky's the limit," says CableLabs CEO Dick Green. "There are a lot of
high-data-rate services lurking out there — including a lot that we haven't even
thought of."


While cable operators now usually transmit broadband at 3
million bits per second (3MB), a download of "a billion bits per second is
completely doable," Comcast CEO Brian Roberts told the industry's annual
convention here this week. "The network could do this quite easily."
