Funny how something like a blog’s ranking on google can be such a source of pride. It’s really quite trivial in the grander scheme of life and can actually be a detriment since one has to deal with comment spam. Having said that, I’m proud to say that googling for Nate Charles lists char1es.net on the first page for results. This is a point of merit because while there aren’t a whole lot of Nate Charles’, the combination of two fairly common first names means there a lot of pages that garner hits.

Due to a very annoying and frusterating issue with my last domain registrar travalas.org has expired. It’ll probably be down until it is deleted and I can renew it somewhere else. In the meanwhile the site is still accessable at http://cs.messiah.edu/~travalas/ if you really want to go there.
