A Meta Keywords Tag Does Nothing for your Site’s Google Rank

Are you fed up with so called SEO experts extolling the importance of meta “keywords” tags on a site’s Google rank? Me too. I therefore created doesgoogleusethekeywordsmetatag.com.

So the next time anyone moans about their site’s lack of a keywords meta tag, you know where to send them :-)

Updating RubyGems on Ubuntu to Install Jekyll

Having recently read about Jekyll I decided to boot up Ubuntu, install all the bits and pieces and give it a try. However, I fell at the first hurdle when greeted by the following error:

Error installing gemcutter:
gemcutter requires RubyGems version >= 1.3.5

The Synaptic Package Manager reported everything as being up-to-date but only to version 1.3.1. As it turns out, there is another way to update rubygems on Ubuntu, which worked a treat! The rest of the installation was a breeze :-)

If you are interested more info on Jekyll can be found on GitHub.
