Most of us should already be aware that Google has updated their algorithm. The new algorithm is called BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) and has made at least a couple of modern-day SEO experts scratching their heads trying to figure out what it means.   The good news is that there have been no major changes enough to make SEO experts change their strategies drastically.

  What Level Programmer Are You?

I will tell you the things I didn’t really know about until I was the one interviewing, and interviewing for a variety of positions and person-types. No interview prep article ever prepared me in the right way for how interviewers really think. That is what I will be sharing with you today. When you first walk in...

  Week 1 : Research - Elements of Successful iPhone Games.

This weekend I started work on my first full blown game for the iPhone. I’m not ready to share the details of what the game will be specifically as I’m sure these will change dramatically over the coming weeks. All I’m sure on is it will be a platform game built with Corona SDK. To get me started I’ve been downloading a bunch of games from the app store, jotting down some of the areas contributing to their addictiveness and success. Short levels I do most of my ...
