"This is a strategy we can play at and win," he said.

Earth calling AltaVista, earth calling AltaVista...

The man is clearly not well. I really would like to see them [AltaVista] rise from the ashes and stuff but I think they are a day late and a dollar short now for any great revival plan.

From Danny Sullivan;

What has happened is that all of these search engines went down the portal route and almost neglected the opportunity that search was a very good business.

Certainly agree.

Ya know, I had emailed Danny about something a few months back. I never received any kind of reply from him. Guess he made me feel very small and unimportant... :balling:

Wow, really? That's surprising. He's one of the few that are good at answering email. But a few months ago his new baby was born, so he was slightly busier than usual! And he already has a toddler, I believe.

Try emailing him again some time. Well, wait 'til after this August Conference! He IS a busy guy. But he is so amazingly down to earth, considering his Godlike status in the SEO world. I really admire him for that. Many would let it go to their head and I don't see that at all with Danny.
Now me on the other hand... :shocked:
