I know I’m geeky, but this is nuts.

I check my stats all the time for search terms used to find my site and sometimes you people scare me. Case in point: “remove aol email advertising software.” What a mouthful! Yes, my site shows up at least twice on the first page of results, but so do a bunch of other sites that […]
