Funtober is now a Delaware limited liability company. I attended the SEOmoz meetup in Philadelphia a few weeks ago. Wil Reynolds of SEER Interactive spoke about the importance of “do[ing] what real businesses do” in order to rank a website well in the search results. As I started to think about what real businesses do, […]
Wow. Time is passing pretty fast now that the weather has warmed up here in Philadelphia. There’s only 4 months until the start of Oktoberfest. While I’ve been enjoying the weather when it isn’t raining, I’ve also been trying to make steady progress on Funtober. The plan is to add the next directory for Funtober […]
Latest reports are that half of the nation’s corn crop has been planted in the Midwest. That’s up from an average of 27% at this point in the prior five years.

It’s perfectly OK if the answer is no. You still have six months to get in the mood to party during October. But when the end of September rolls around, you had better have that frown turned upside down! If you said YES – then you should reserve space on your calendar for one of […]
Happy Easter! Another major holiday passes in the countdown until the best holiday of the year. There are 206 days left until Halloween. I took a few minutes this morning from my Easter celebration to add a new logo to my Facebook page and twitter account. I expect that I’ll spend the money to have […]
This morning, I’ve updated the policies and governing legal documents for Funtober. You should take a few minutes out of your day and check them out. They govern your use of this website. So they are kind of a big deal. I know that most people don’t read them unless they have to hire an […]
You may have noticed some of the most recent changes here at Funtober. On Wednesday, I added the Funtober facebook page and twitter account to the sidebar. Be sure to LIKE and FOLLOW us! I’ll be haphazardly tweeting and posting updates about the website for the next few months until September rolls around. At that […]
