Not to turn my blog into a chronicle of search engine spammers, but I’m pleased to discover that the Stanford Daily has removed all of its link farms! Many thanks to the staff over there for doing the right thing even before they’ve had a chance to secure a new advertising method. Will the other college newspapers follow its lead?

Well done Stanford. And well done Blake, you are an inspiration.

Hey Blake, just wanted to say that you’re an inspiration. So young, so intelligent. You’re probably tired of hearing it but I wanted to say it, anyway lol. I’m not a programmer (I’m an antropologie student) but I admire what you do. It’s so cool you exist.

You hit the Stanford Daily so hard they fell off the Internet… it’s been down for quite a bit now.

While the rumor has been spread and I’ve seen several blogs mentioning this post, I must say that the Stanford Daily site has been down for almost 24 hours.
