Blogging With Out the Internet

Ok this is going to be an interesting little experiment. I am typing this brief post while on vacation at my second home up in the mountains of the Ouachita (pronounced wash-a-ta) Forest in Arkansas. It is a beautiful place sitting on a ridge top at about 1100 feet of elevation. I can see for miles in several directions.
I have all the conveniences of my home in Arlington, Texas and the drive is only about 5 hours, it is the perfect escape. Wait! Did I say all the convenience of home, well one thing I don’t have is an internet connection of any kind.
I have my Blackberry with my corporate email on it but just won’t clutter that with my personal email and the umpteen thousand mails a day that come to that one. I could drive about an hour to the local Starbucks to do some stuff but hell what kind of “vacation” is that.
So each day I am going to do a blog post or two with no research behind it. No idea what the rest of the SEO, Internet Marketing and Technology Communities are talking about. When I get back on June 8th I will cue them all to go out one a day until they are all posted.
It should be interesting to see what I can come up with while totally disconnected. I do have the most recent versions of Search Marketing Standard and Webs Site Magazine with me. They may stir some thoughts but looking at them, the topics are well all old news.
So enjoy this as we go forward and let’s just see what I can come up with all off the top of my head.

[…] A New Way to See the Local Search Opportunity Posted in Search Marketing by jspirko on June 14th, 2007 So I am on to topic 4 of my Blogging Without The Internet experiment. In case this is the first time you have read one of my posts in this series I am on vacation and writing from my get away place in the mountains just north of Hot Spring Arkansas. It is beautiful 5 acre place sitting about 1000 feet above the surrounding valley. The road that leads to it is gravel and probably will not see blacktop for a decade or more. As you might imagine there is no hope of DSL, no Cable TV and I don’t keep a phone line up here as I only stay here on occasion. […]
