Losing my google juice for Josh Owens

Filed Under General | Leave a Comment

Well, I guess the jig is up. My g rankings are starting to slip. I suspect if I redesigned the site a little to point to all my active projects and all the writing I have done around the web, I would probably go up a few notches. I used to be 8 of the top 10 search results for my name, but that is no longer.

I used ClaimID in an effort to try and “glue” all my work together, but that doesn’t seem to be helping. They did turn out to be an easy way to start using openID, though.

So here are some projects I am working on:

I have also done some various writings around the internet:

Here’s to hoping I can find some time to make this site a bit more useful and redesign it a bit!

I am not even sure people follow this thing anymore :). Either way, here are some quick updates.

We won first place with our rails rumble app entry, Tasty Planner. I am very proud of our team and we are all excited to turn it into a real business!

You would think with working from home that I would update this blog more, but it is hard, for sure. The really nice thing about working from home is that I get to spend *all* of my time with Brayden when I have him (1/2 the week) and get my work done at night and after he goes home on Saturday afternoon. It really has been working out nicely.

I am also about to launch my first open source project, so stay tuned for details on that!
