Google is pushing for more mobile friendly sites and giving them preference on the SERPS - search engine result pages. They are also looking for websites that don't change much. They are considering those abandoned and will delist them in the upcoming months.       02/11/2015

This just hit my desk this afternoon -- I will be going into this in depth but here is what I found out.Google is making changes in its algorithm to ensure that websites will be able to deliver well on their SERPS, (search engine result pages). Lets just look at a few of these:FLASH - The big thing here is that Flash is pretty much over. There are alternatives to this kind of animation that are found on the Google development site. https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/look-and-feel/animations/animating-between-viewsThe idea here is that creating these animations are tedius.

Nothing says the tropics like a beautiful fruit layden coconut tree. I remember my first time seeing one on an Easter break to Florida as a 9 year old. It was an amazing site, where were the leaves, can you eat those things, can I climb it ,can I, can I? My poor parents, they probably headed right to the Tiki Bar! This grand specimen is amongst my mini grove of 12 in my backyard, they still amaze me so many decades later. Oh, and BTW I still like to climb them on occassion.   12/16/2014

  As our wonderful weather continues with no end in sight for the near future I have to say its hard to say no to that lounge chair. Calling all snowbirds or those already tired of the winter that has not even officially begun. South Florida is sporting crystal clear azure skies and temps in the high 70's. If you are lucky enough have a pool surround yourself in BLUE! 12/15/2014

    There isn't much to say about this but I will. Though I like it a little warmer than this it is the perfect temps with the sun blazing to be outdoors. After a 3 mile run to the gym and an hour workout I ran back home. Within minutes I had my tunes on out by the pool and was soaking up some sun. Tomorrow may be a beach day...stay tuned   12/13/2014

Winter is still ten days away but you would never know it by the weather around the country this week. Nor'easters dumping feet of snow along the eastern seaboard, monster winter storms in the north west, frigid temperatures in the mid section of the country and then there is south Florida. It seems winter has no interest in visiting us as we bask in the brilliant sunshine and enjoy a very pleasant 72 degrees through all of next week. It never gets old!   12/11/2014

We tropical "birds" do not welcome these chilly temps. Of course it was only 5:49 a.m. when I snapped this but in the past 3+ hours it has gotten much above that. Today we will achieve a high of 72 degrees and once we hit that mark it should be more tolerable but come already this isn't Nebraska!  12/08/2014
