Michael Holloway's FilterBlogs: The Personal Blog of Don Mac Arthur has Morphed...

The Personal Blog of Don Mac Arthur has Morphed...

One of my favorite blogs, The Personal Blog of Don Mac Arthur has morphed - comments are no longer requested. This key change to this 'filter blog' is original in my experience, and may help create a commercially viable blog if Mac Arthur chooses - an Internet version of 'filter media' like NBC's Today Show or ABC's Good Morning America.

The publisher Don Mac Arthur is creating a finished product every day that he alone creates. Don Mac Arthur's witty comments around news items he quotes from, are as original as the quality sources he links the reader up with. Those interested in science, politics and the human condition will enjoy these irreverent swipes at perception and habit, and find a treasure trove of bookmark worthy links.

In an earlier post on Don Mac Arthur's site, I opined that my comments may have gotten me blocked from the site. My fetish for tipping the intellectual apple cart may have something to do with it. I sometimes challenge people to unravel logical extensions; sometimes my 'poems' are miss-interpreted.

The new format re-titled, 'Caught My Eye - The Personal Blog of Don Mac Arthur' ends the bloggers head ache of responding to comments every day - and at the same time fixes the problem of 'phishing' and 'hit collecting' that clutter comments pages of may blogs and can devalue a project(I do not plead guilty to this, I was linking in the spirit of the blog-o-sphere) .

Occupy Movement

10 February 2014

The general perception is that Occupy is over.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

The System is critically broken. You can help replace it with one that represents the People's interests - rather than the interests of the few - represented now by a dieing Republic and her allies in a New World Order - an American Empire.

This end of democracy - and possibly of the enlightenment - ushers in a corporatism - a reflection of the Nazi state - refined now with the social barometers of the surveillance state in an IT revolution. With it's endless global war, and it's rapacious 'always on' dog-eat-dog economy, the corporate state creates nothing but fear and loathing, via the terrorism of the market place: a thin strata of highly-paid professionals serving the 1%; feed by a great under-class of skilled, subsistence workers - it creeps thus into every street, into every mind, in every country of the globe.

The grotesque thing is a relic of the past - a desease that wants to bury us all with it as is contorts like a cancer into death itself.

The People's Movements are digging in to protect our democracy; developing deep roots and strength in every community.

This spring may be an awakening of every mind; of every town square. Of every country.

The plus-side as great as the likely fascist horror we face.

Tour de France Coverage

The past 2 years I covered every stage race of the Tour de France at BikingToronto. "Live Blogging" almost every stage, I also wrote a summary pieces on many stages which included some funny takes on the metrics of team bicycle racing. Also you can re-live the progress of Victoria BC's Ryder Hesjedal who, after rising to, and holding on to 3rd place for several stages, finished the 2010 Tour de France in 7th place over all. Have a look my BikingToronto Blog, "@Blog_FreeWheel" "2010 Tour de France" and the "2011 Tour de France" tags.

Longtail Posthumous Aperitif (added to after, before)

At the top of more and more articles in the FilterBlogs archives who'll see this:

After some articles are 'put to bed' at FilterBlogs they get a Longtail Posthumous Aperitif ; links to related articles published after my original post linked at the top of articles - towards a better user experience for you, the reader:

A breakdown of "Posthumous Longtail Aperitif":

After, after, before.
Finished but not finished and at the beginning.

As I continue to add these relevant 'Tweets' the result will be an ongoing re-crawl by search bots; better connecting my posts in search and adding to the 'intelligence' of the Google Search algorithm. Your welcome :)
