A Legend and A King


Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009), "King of Pop", was an American recording artist and entertainer. His innovative contributions to music and dance, along with a highly publicized personal life, made him a central part of popular culture around the world for four decades.

The seventh child of the Jackson family, he made his performing debut in 1964 as a member of the group that became The Jackson 5, beginning a solo career in 1971. His 1982 album Thriller remains the best-selling album of all time, with four others—Off the Wall (1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991), and HIStory (1995)—among the best selling. He popularized several physically complicated dance moves, such as the robot and the moonwalk, now iconic. He is widely credited with having transformed the music video from a promotional tool into an art form, with videos such as Thriller, "Beat It" and "Billie Jean" making him the first African American to amass a strong crossover following on MTV, and others, such as "Black or White" and "Scream", ensuring his popularity well into the 1990s.

Jackson's personal life generated significant controversy. His changing appearance was noticed from the early 1980s, his skin appearing paler and his facial features becoming almost androgynous. He was accused in 1993 of child sexual abuse, and though no charges were brought, his health suffered when he started using painkillers to cope with the stress. He married twice, first in 1994 and again in 1996, and brought up three children, one of them with a surrogate mother, actions that triggered more speculation about his life. In 2005, he was tried and acquitted of different child molestation allegations, which provoked a further decline in his health. Jackson died at the age of 50 on June 25, 2009, in Los Angeles, after suffering cardiac arrest. His memorial service was broadcast live around the world, and watched by up to one billion people.

Backlinks - How are they Useful in Blogging?

What are backlinks really for?

Backlinks are inbound or incoming links into a webpage or a site. These are the links that points into the site that links from another site using URLs.

In SEO or Search Engine Optimization, these backlinks indicates how popular a certain site or how important it is.

Why you need backlinks?

Basically, there are two reasons why these backlinks are very important. First, you need links to be crawled by the search engines. Second, you need the right links for your page to be included in the search indexes.

Do backlinks help in search engine optimization?

Yes! Backlinks are used to validate your website. That means, your website can be trusted. And also, search engines also allow backlinks to pass anchor text and a quantifiable value that we’ll call PageRank.

How to build backlinks?

There are many ways on how to do this. First, for you to be able to gain easy backlinks, you need to start building your site content a good quality. I mean, if your content are good then your readers will recommend your site and will keep a link on that. These backlinks are considered as te seasoning while your page is the steak. You don't always need to put a lot of effort in putting a lot of seasoning instead of starting making your steak looks delicious. Because if you does, you'll be doing less steps in putting more backlinks.

Another way could be is that the use of directories,blogs or forums. You could simple visit another sites that could be used to put your links on. Putting some links in forums could be useful but there are drawbacks in doing this. Some links could pull down your site instead of pushing up. So be careful with these, used forums that are related to the topics or content of your site so it could be used to point on your site.

Exchanging links is also another way. Asking for another publisher to exchange links to help each other. But bear in mind that you should also consider that the inbound and outbound links are balanced. So that both of you would benefit instead of lowering your rank.

Back to School


School year 2009-2010 has just started, for those students that were very excited in going back to school and for those students who hates the other way around.

Most of the students were very busy, if not in preparing their stuff or buying school supplies. My younger sisters and brothers were not exempted on this. They cannot almost sleep thinking what they'll gonna wear in their first day in school as well as what they'll gonna say to those people around them.

Some are also thinking if who will be their teachers, if she/he will be a strict or jolly one. Thinking if they could cope up with the lessons easily. Those are just normal feelings usually encounter during the beginning of the school year but as time go along, things will be okay and normal.

And for me, I've just missed the feeling of going to school and meeting new people.
