Here's Why The C.D.I.T.U Thinks That The Xbox 360 Kinect Is The Coolest Gaming Accessory In The Universe

You know early last year Microsoft rolled out the Kinect for Xbox 360 for the gaming world to behold. It turns out that this one piece of equipment may very well revolutionize that way that many current, and future gamers interact with their consoles, and games.

Like anything else, the Kinect is the first rendition of what surely will be additional tweaks to the original product as it becomes an essential part of a gaming system.

It uses a sensor bar to track your body movement much like Nintendo Wii, but is much more sophisticated. You can see it in action here: http://www.xbox360kinectdeals.com

This sensor can also recognize your face and voice allowing you to sign on to the console without ever having to enter a user name and password. Unlike most hand held controllers where you are just controlling the superhero or villain, you actually become the character using your body’s full range of motion. This allows you to step into a virtual world and physically act out your characters movements and emotions.

One can only imagine how games like Madden, Guitar Hero or Rockband and so many others will be seriously upgraded, and in dept because you are able to interact directly with the characters that you represent on the video screen.

You literally use body motions as commands for all kinds of actions within the video screen. For example in one auto racing game you are able to walk all the way around your car. Open the hood, the door, get in, start it up, and then drive the thing with your hands out in front of you, just truly amazing.

Overall, this is a very exciting product in the motion gaming arena that stands out above all other products. Microsoft has done an excellent job with the XBOX 360 and this is nothing short of spectacular and stands to make lot of people feel like the coolest dude in the universe when it comes to playing video games. Until next time......

Awesome Idea for Greenbean Casserole Alternative

You know one of my favorite thanksgiving day dishes is the green bean casserole. The only problem is that I am the only one in my family that happens to like it. So last year I decided that I had to find a green bean casserole alternative. I wanted something that remained true to the original recipe but was enough variation that it tasted totally different and would invite others to enjoy a dish that I feel is an old standby for any holiday dinner.

So I was able to locate an new variation without to much trouble and it met the requirements that I was looking for.

1. It still uses green beans. Personally I like the French cut type in the can. If you use the frozen ones they tend to remain to crunchy and it doesn't taste right regardless of what type of green bean model you choose.

2. Instead of using mushroom soup, you use cheddar cheese soup.
3. Bring on the bacon bits.
4. Don't forget the Durke onions.

After bring these ingredients together and cooking it up in a new casserole it tasted amazing an literally was demolished by everyone. Almost makes me wish I hadn't brought out the new and improved GBC.

Either way I like it better and will be making it again in a few days.

Taking The House Edge - Tips On How To Buy a Car

I am now posting the "Taking The House Edge" on the Coolest Dude Site. I wanted to add some additional thoughts about the new work by John Meyers.

Through out the day today I have seen many people jump on this new book. Without a doubt many of us have had the unpleasant experience of having to sit down with those that work for a car dealership. Don't get me wrong those people that are selling cars for the most part are good honest hard working folks like the rest of us.

But the problem is that not all in the management chain are warm to the needs of the customer and whether or not they got a good deal. When I say a good deal I mean a good deal for the customer not necessarily for them.

You see the bottom line is that dealerships are so drunken with bleeding as much money out of the consumer they have it down to a science. They even design the places to make it difficult for you to leave once you get there. Everything is pre planned.

You simply show up wanting to purchase a new or used vehicle and the process starts in motion.
Ultimate you end up sitting in front of some finance guy or girl that runs number though their computers and spits out a payment that you can afford.

You see that is where you get lost in the whole thing because by the time you make it to that person you're worn out with salesman running back and forth and paper work and questions etc...

Using the Taking the House Edge gives you the inside track and you already know their next move before they make it. John has spelled it out completely in his book. The only thing that I really dislike about it is the cover is seems a little amateurish.

Outside of that it's loaded with tons of valuable information that you will want to have when you go for your next car purchase.

Don't take my word for it check out the Taking the House Edge for yourself click here to see for yourself.

N Scale Train Layouts - What To Do About N Scale Train Layouts Before It's Too Late!

The history of railroading also referred to as railway modeling is a very popular hobby where the transport system of train commuting is transformed into a mini fantasy world of scale or ratio reduced railway tracks, trains, signals and scenery, imitating a real-life road trip via a train. The first adaptations where rugged carpet railways which where exchanged for polished and life-like electric train layouts sets.

Simple beginnings: Great bench work is the basis for good track work. Make sure your work table or bench is vigorous and firm, made from thick lumber for the legs and frame and ½ inch plywood with some kind of rubberizing on top as noise insulation will suffice. You don't want to squander time and efforts by building your whole train set on a platform that breaks upon completion of your project. Keep in mind who your plan viewers will be, most probably small kids. You definitely don't want them to mess up all your hard work, so make sure the bench top is high enough.

Smoothness is everything: Remember smoothness is essential to the train rides' success. Smooth tracks will mean a smooth ride. While building your bench make 100% sure that it's level, even the smallest unevenness will show during the mini train ride. Fit track parts, switches and joints firmly and also check that the straights are straight as an arrow.

Free flow: Pick a spot where your plan will start, either a curve or bridge. Have your rails naturally flow from there. Place railway sections in the directions you want the rails to lead. Do not use a large number of screws as you will have to unscrew them all if any modifications or changes are necessary. Let the layout develop, mount a few more screws and do a trial run run. Please remember to do wiring and leading before eventual mounting is done.

Everyone join: Call friends and family to help with the constructing of the train layouts. You never know what plan genius is hidden next door or in your kitchen.

You can easily design your own model train layouts. For more tips and tricks on planning the ultimate n scale train layouts visit http://www.modelrailroadlayouthelp.com

The CDITU Site Is Whatever I Want It To Be About!

Well once again this blog site is about whatever I want it to be about.

With that being said I have decided that while I am always willing and able to provide advice for those that would like to start blogging for the express reason of putting some coin in their pocket then I'm right here and willing to give a hand.

But the Coolest Dude in The Universe site was really just an experiment with SEO and nothing more. I found a term that had really low competition and wanted to see how quickly a Blogger Blog would rank for a non competitive phrase.

So what did I find out?

Well the proof is in the pudding so to speak.

Google obviously has many different criteria about what they consider relevant to a search query but this blog makes it painfully obvious that when you search for the term coolest dude in the universe in Google, this site is the number one ranking and has been for years. That's right years.

As of today I own the term.

Here are somethings that I know for sure.

1. I was the first person in the entire planet to claim the term Google knows that so they give me what I would consider the benefit of the doubt when ranking me.

2. I have been posting regularly and when I say regularly I mean sometime during the year. Not everyday or week or month.

3. Not everything on this site is relevant to being Coolest Dude in The Universe.

4. I've noticed that others have tried to take the term away from me by going to the extreme of actually purchasing a coolestdudeintheuniverse domain name. Why?

I wasn't even trying it was just a test.

And so you have it others are wanting to be the CDiTU but it's just me.

Now that I've gotten that out of the way. I have come to the conclusion that since Google does like this site and has provided me with a number 1 ranking I will start posting about a lot more different topics in order to promote my own agenda.

So stay tuned for a wide variety of topics coming from The CDiTU site

HP g60-230us Great For Most Everyone

The HP g60 230us is a great laptop and one that will fit most peoples needs. Trouble is it always seem that finding a perfect fit in laptops is like trying to buy new sneakers. They all start to look and fit alike after a while.

Finding a laptop with just enough power plus all the bells and whistles can be confusing. Usually you find a system that has this or that, but not exactly everything in one package for your personal taste.

Personally I use a desktop most of the time but after checking out this HP and messing around with this laptop at the store for a while I was pretty much sold.

Click Here For the HPg60-230

The look and performance of this particular model seemed to be just right.

Kinda like Goldilocks. Not to hot not to cold, just right.

What I really liked was the size of the screen. I looked like it was a nice size in the store. When I got this baby home I was like W T F this thing is huge. I was happy about that.

It hums with a Intel processor and really does the job for anything that I’ve thrown at it so far.

All in all I thought it was a good decision to go with the The HP hp g60 230us. The battery life leaves something to be desired though. As always be sure to bring the cord with you so that you don’t have to rely on battery power.

Everyone in the family will enjoy seeing this during the holiday season.

I have created Coolest Dude in The Universe Two

This is for the new page I created for the new Coolest Dude in the Universe Two

I wanted to see how quickly I could get a page indexed.

So here's what I've got.

Recently I created a page on Squidoo that was brand new. It was for a Disney Christmas Tre Review.
Now my previous post has a link that is to that page.

The problem is that I pinged that page and also made the link from here to that page as well. It took about 6 hours for Google to index and rank that page on page 4 plus pretty low competition.

I'm not entirely satisfied with that though. Although it's not bad

Basically I'm not sure if that page got indexed by my result of pinging, or because I linked it from here and another site.

Further I created a new Coolest Dude in The Universe Site on Wordpress called fittingly Coolest Dude in the Universe Two.

That was yesterday or early on Friday morning. Either way I created the Squidoo page and the new Coolest Dude in the Universe Two site basically around the same time frame. It should be mentioned that the WP was done on the website platform and not on a URL.

So both should have similar authority rankings.

Both were pinged and bookmarked.

As of this writing as mentioned the Squidoo page has been indexed and the Wordpress site has not. I did send a link from this CDIU site over to that page however and I'm wondering if that had an effect.

So here's what I'm going to do I am going to post a link from this CDIU site to the new one.
Additionally, I will ping this post and see if that will get it in the index.

Further I will make another post from this site only that will link to another Squidoo page and see how long it takes to get that indexed.

I actually created three new Squidoo pages all on the same topic of the Disney Christmas Tree.

So I am going to handle each one differently.

Just to recap...

One I will link from this site, and then ping the post only. I'm not going to ping the Squidoo page.

The second one that I made I will ping that page alone no other links coming in for now, and see how long that takes.

The third I will send a link from a article directory and ping that RSS feed, and ping the page itself.

Coolest Dude in The Universe Search Engine and SEO Tips

I found this article to be somewhat fitting considering what I'm trying to accomplish as of late.

Right now I'm testing to see how fast I will receive an alert on this particular post.


So without further delay here is a great article on monitoring search engine position. How ironic LOL.

It's the story of the Coolest Dude in the Universes life.

Since search engines are the first stop for people on the
Internet looking for goods or services, the position your
website appears in search results is an important factor.
If your URL shows up far down the results list, the chances
of the consumer never finding you increase incrementally.
Once you achieve a high search engine position, it is
essential that you make sure you maintain the high ranking
you have worked so hard to achieve.

This means you must come up with a strategy to monitor your
search engines positions. This strategy is crucial to the
success of any marketing campaign. Think of your search
engine positions as your online portfolio. Would you let
your stock portfolio be ruled by chance and market
fluctuations, or would you keep close tabs on your stocks
so you could buy and sell when the time is right? This is
the way you must consider your search engines positions.

Be aware that at first, after you have launched your search
engine campaign and done all the right things to increase
your rankings, you will most likely see a continual upward
climb. What you need to be on the lookout for is the moment
that upward climb reaches a plateau. When this happens,
your search engine position campaign moves into stage two,
the monitoring and protecting stage.

In stage two, do not be concerned about the short-term
fluctuations in your positions. These are similar to the
subtle rising and falling of stocks in a portfolio.
Short-term movement is an integral part of the whole
process. It's the long-term changes that you must watch for
and prepare to act on immediately.

Analyzing the long-term trends of search engines positions
is imperative. The way in which search engines rank
websites may change at the drop of hat. If you are unaware
of these changes - many of which are subtle yet can be
deadly to your ranking - your position may drop to the
bottom of the list before you can get your bearings. To
prevent this kind of precipitous drop, you must create a
system to monitor your positions on a monthly basis. Devise
a chart to keep tabs on your top ranking positions or your
top pages, and make sure to watch "the market" closely.

Each search engine uses a formula to compute website
rankings. When a search engine changes this formula in any
way, it may raise or lower your ranking. Some search
engines use a number of different formulas, rotating them
so that a formula doesn't become overused or outdated.
Depending on which formula is being applied, your search
engine position may suddenly drop or rise in rank
significantly. Therefore, you must check your positions
frequently in order to catch when a search engine changes
formulas and what effect it has on your positions.

You must also deal with your competition - a crucial factor
you must always be vigilant about. Your competitor's
position may suddenly rise, automatically lowering your
position. Or their position may drop, pushing your position
higher. Each month, expect position changes due to the
continual changes that are occurring in your competitor's
position, and be prepared to adjust your marketing strategy
to compensate for decreased rankings. Monitoring these
fluctuations will also give you vital information about how
to improve your website to increase your position in search
results.

Of course, you must discern what the most popular search
engines are in order for your monitoring efforts to be
effective. Right now, there are ten popular search engines
that direct most of Internet traffic to your sites. The
challenge you face is that these top ten may change from
month to month.

This means that your must not only monitor your search
engine positions, but you must also keep track of the
ranking popularity of the search engines you are
monitoring. Find out which search engines people use most
frequently every month and be sure to live in the present!
People are fickle about their favorite search engines, and
it takes constant vigilance to follow their dalliances. The
search engines they loved when you first launched your
campaign may be old news in the next few months. You must
adjust your list of engines according to the whims of the
Internet users. Check out
http://www.websitepositionwizard.com
for an easy to to check your list of website.

Another factor to monitor carefully is a sudden drop of
your positions in all search engines. This is not the same
as monthly fluctuations - this is a neon red warning sign!
It could mean a number of different things.

It all your search engine positions have plummeted, it may
indicate that search engines spiders - those sneaky
programs that seek out your site and rank their positions -
have found some type of problem with your website. If you
have recently changed the code, for instance, the spider
may become utterly confused and consequently drop your
positions disastrously. If a spider creeps up on your
website when it is down for adjustments or changes, you may
actually disappear from a search engine index entirely. Or
a search engine may drastically change its formula, and
suddenly all of your website come up as irrelevant. If that
search engine is a current favorite, it may create a domino
effect, causing all of your position to drop in all search
engines.

Some search engines rely on the results from other search
engines, and it is vital that you know which engines these
are and keep track of all the engines they influence. The
biggest problem here is that search engines will sometimes
change affiliations, and this can create a major shift in
the geography of the Internet. For example, recently Yahoo
decided to display only results gleaned from Google. So you
must not only monitor your own positions, but you must keep
abreast of seismic shifts in the landscape of the Internet
as a whole.

Finally, pay attention to your keywords. Keywords are the
foundation bricks of the entire search engine system, and
they demand individual scrutiny in your monitoring efforts.
If you have found that a number of your positions have
plummeted, it may mean that a page of your website has
become invisible or inaccessible to search engine spiders.
Or the competition for that particular keyword or phrase
has recently rocketed into outer space. In either case, you
must act quickly and efficiently to regain lost ground.

Your search engine marketing campaign is an investment. If
costs you time and money on a continual basis. Protect this
investment as diligently as you would your financial
portfolio. In the same way, track your positions from an
objective perspective, and monitor your positions on a
regular basis. Make sure your time and effort reap rewards
by keeping your eye on the big picture - your long-term
marketing campaign.

SEO Updates From The C.D.I.T.U

New post from the Coolest Dude in the Universe. Just a quick update I have been focusing on two sites one being the wholesaleanddropshipdirect.com site and the homesalesofjax.com site lately. My new strategy for continued high rankings is to submit articles and link them back to the websites.

As of today the homesalesofjax site was listed a #3 for the term Jacksonville Real Estate
while I find that a terrific accomplishment the unfortunatlely part is that the site is not getting the conversions you would expect based on a term like that. My thought is that it is just to broad a term, so while I proud of the fact that I was finally able to get the position I am not that happy with the return so far. We'll see what happens in the up coming weeks as we get closer to summer and hopefully it can remain in that spot. At that point I'll be able to make a better judgement as to what the overall conversion is.

The bottom line is I will be focusing on the longtail terms that are more specific to real estate areas in Jacksonville, Fl.

I'll put another post with some additional info on the results.
