High Keyword Density and Over-Optimization
I've recently found a useful tool for assessing how well your website has been optimized for keywords. You simply enter your URL into the density checker where it counts how many words you have on a page, and presents the most popular ones in a tag cloud. Give it a try:
Keyword Density Checker
How to avoid over-optimization is contained in a few simple guideline, which helps you analyze the results from your check. It generally says that a percentage score of between 3% and 7% is recommended. Any higher percentage than this may be regarded as keyword stuffing, something which Google will penalize by reducing your search engine rankings.

New direction for this blog...
Following a lack of diversity in posts, most of which were based on Internet articles, I've decided to rename this blog and focus it on Internet usability and it will have an emphasis on my specialist area of Web 2.0 technologies. My knowledge of science and technology is fairly limited so my articles should be more focused from now on.

Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change Report
It's a pretty comprehensive and damning assessment about the effects and consequences of the current warming of the earth's climate. If you're in doubt over the validity of scientific claims on climate change, have a read of the IPCC 4th Assessment Report 2007, assembled by the world's leading scientists and available for everyone to see.

The Four Horsemen
Available now to watch online is a two hour discussion between the four most intellectual minds in the religion-atheism debate, dubbed as 'The Four Horsemen'. It's relaxed, honest and very fascinating to watch, and also shows them reasoning that there are weaknesses in their side of the arguement.
