Mr Papa – Rare Beef!
December 14, 2007
I have posted recently about the huge amount of spam I receive here at Mr Papa’s World. The spam continues. Another thing that has been quite prevalent, even more so over at Cruise Talk Central has been content scraping. Content scraping is the stealing of content from one site and publishing it on another site. It’s usually done by scraping a site’s RSS feed.
I also like to monitor my site stats and see what people are looking at and where they come from. That is, the site they were viewing where they clicked on a link over to Mr Papa’s World
Today, I saw a referrer link that I didn’t quite understand. Once I saw the page where it came from, I ended up on the floor laughing extremely long. It wasn’t long until Suzanne joined me there. Some scraper has a site with the name of Hunk Hotel and his hunk video search. It seems they have a picture of me they copied from my site here up on there site. Even funnier is the title of the image “Rare Beef”. Of course, that’s the title I gave the picture from our recent cruise. I was eating some wonderful rare cooked beef in the dining room. It was hilarious.
Check out the site and picture yourself:
You will get a nice laugh just like us!
Site Upgrade
February 3, 2007
Tonight, I upgraded Mr Papa’s World to the latest version of WordPress, the software that drives the site. This was a fairly major release and upgrade required. I had to make sure all of the mods I have done to the site still functioned.
There are still a few kinks to work out as not everything is quite right, but I wanted to get the site back online while I sorted those out. Please bear with me for a few days as I get everything back in total order.
A lot of this upgrade is under the covers. Site peformance should be enhanced and the ease at which I can manage the site has been increased. In the future, more site enhancements will be possible in thanks to some of the new hooks in the software that is just waiting to be utilized.
Now, I only have another five or six sites to upgrade…
