There's been much discussion (on this list in the past) about how to
expertly craft descriptions for and register in search engines and online
directories in a strategic and tactical effort to improve one's Web site
visibility.

Well, the other day I found the following real company description in Yahoo!

SkyWorld - creates web sites or online catalogs for your company,
conference, marketing campaign, or special event using our computers.
^^^^^ ^^^ ^^^^^^^^^

(pause)

Moe: "Nuckleheads! Don't they know most people create web sites or online
catalogs using finger paints and crayons?"

Larry: (scratches head) "Gosh, I wonder if mentioning their computers helped
rank their listing any higher?"

Curly: "Do ya think they used 'computers' as a keyword in their META tag?"

<smirk>

Just some T.G.I.F. comic relief, courtesy of yours truly.

Have a good weekend,
