Some interesting folks met so far... 5 months ago

Thanks to the Search Engine Strategies conference in Toronto, I’ve already met a couple cool folks from the SEO industry. Shari Thurow was particularly nice to talk to.

It's been going good! 5 months ago

I’ve been persistent in updating my blog on a regular basis… aiming for 1 post a day, at least. SES Toronto ‘09 was a good exercise in keeping things up-to-date.



travel across Canada
Visiting London, Ontario 5 months ago

Some colleagues and I just returned from a business trip to London, Ontario, Canada. It’s the city I was born in, but I haven’t been out that way since (approximately) the age of two.

If I was forced to describe London in one line, I’d suggest that it’s a miniature metropolis. The diversity and distinction between areas of the city are reminiscent of Toronto. They key difference is that the areas are much smaller in London.

It was somewhat jarring to jump between the downtown core (new buildings, trendy restaurants, giant offices) and the older areas of town (condemned buildings, boarded-up storefronts). There was no transition phase – you simply drove down the street and found yourself in a completely different atmosphere.

Although it was only London, Ontario, hopefully this will be the first step in a series of further travels across the country.
