Or, Andrew Is Your Single Source For Complete Antenna

In a discussion I had a while back with a friend about our respective presences on the web, I have learned that google doesn’t know anything about Andrew Smale yet. I tried Andrew just to make sure, but I wasn’t a fan of seeing “Andrew is a fag” a mere three lines down. Independent of that gimmicky little site, google does actually find a site made by Andrew Smale – except he’s from Calgary. And a gamer, apparently. Cue crappy Disneyland theme song. It’s not an especially great site as there isn’t much there, but it’s still kind of amusing – if only because he has the exact same name as me. Don’t waste your time on the videos, they’re fucking stupid. Moving along.

I also decided to check out geoURL, as it was featured in an article at WebMonkey on the resurgence of META tags in developing web pages. Plus all the cool bloggers seem to be doing it. An interesting read if you’re into that sort of thing. Obviously I wanted to see what this was all about, so I signed myself up and am now listed in their database. In a nutshell, geoURL associates your site with a geographic location, based on Lat/Long coordinates you supply in a META tag. It’s a cool concept, and a neat way to find fellow bloggers that happen to live in your geographical area, once again bringing the weblogging phenomenon into everyday life.

Back of the Envelope: If you ever wondered why this site is toase.net as opposed to toase.com, you can take a look if you like. They’re a civil law firm based out of Texas. Their website sucks.
