Zepfanman.com (Stylesheets Off Version)

Link dump

I guess I should be happy that I'm devoting more time to other things besides my 56 Bloglines feeds. (I feel your busyness, Jake.) I've had some of these links tagged for over a month! This is becoming a problem that I need to address. Either I figure out how to utilize the Bloglines Clippings better, or I get on the ball by integrating del.icio.us into Zepfanman.com somehow. I've been peeved that there is no way to search an individual My Bloglines. On to the goods...

nofollow

This new attribute allows webmasters to mark links that they don't want Google to rank. Personally, I've seen mention of this dozens of times since Google announced it on Tuesday. My biggest concern is that very few people have mentioned that W3C requires an additional profile attribute in the head for nofollow to be compliant. As expected, Google Blogoscoped has pros and cons about this issue. Richard@Home lists the perils of using nofollow. Phil Ringnalda adds his thoughts, with many links to others' opinions, too.
