Hold on tight to your lawn chairs, lumbar supports, and antisneakers, because there’s planet-shattering news about this here blog. We’ve finally been indexed.

That’s right, dear reader, just go ahead and Google for Capra hircus: we’re right there at spot number three.

Perhaps I should not become so excited about these things.

I can’t help but suspect that the registration of the caprahircus.ws name had something to do with Google’s change of heart. There are, after all, a positively astronomical 44 pages indexed on the domain name. A search for Pygmy Software still returns nothing on the official site, but the first result is a 302 redirect to the home page. Take that, Pygmy Computer Systems (thanks, nofollow).

So ends a saga.

Thanks and thanks. I was reminded of the blackspot sneaker because Joel recently received his. If only they weren't so derned expensive.

Thanks for the tip about the LiveJournal feed. Let's see if this fix resolves it for the next refresh.

Desperation! I'll need to do something drastic. As far as I know, I've done nothing to them. I have been tested and, apparently, I have failed.

Adrian, you rock my so(cks/x) as well, and so does Mozilla Firefox. Thank You. And also, i just hit you at the number 1 spot on google. Oh, it is a fickle God! But I have faith in his plan...

Well, darn, now I'm blushing. I'm glad that Firefox is working out. Hold fast against the forces of evil.
Google has many similarities to God, it would seem. Not only is it all-seeing and all-knowing, it's also quite fickle. I also have a marginal amount in its plan. Thanks for noticing.
