The more inbound links a site has, the higher Google ranks it as an authority (a sort of automated peer review, if you like). So one link from, say, the New York Times (a site with thousands of inbound links, and a very high Google ranking), counts much, much more than one link from, say, the Rambler.<BR/><BR/>BTW, downloading from YouTube - I've never used it, but have reliable recommendations for http://www.youtubex.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980672.post-1160413800479490482006-10-09T13:10:00.000-04:002006-10-09T13:10:00.000-04:00Thanks for the help, Michael.

I have a feeling Google counts all links out there, whereas Technorati only counts links from the top page of blogs.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286095156825716887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980672.post-1160402681424494892006-10-09T10:04:00.000-04:002006-10-09T10:04:00.000-04:00Re Google:It ranks its sites according to how many...Re Google:<BR/><BR/>It ranks its sites according to how many other sites link to them. So if you Google something, the first site that it returns is the most-linked-to site on the web for that search term.MJWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05697147848116189145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980672.post-1160359185812759262006-10-08T21:59:00.000-04:002006-10-08T21:59:00.000-04:00Thanks, Peter.

I have to say, my main idea was for the students to imagine writing a review of the concert, but the first group went off onto a riff on the poor performers. And then another group had a discussion on whether they would have rioted, shushed, or walked out if they had been in the audience. Most felt they would have liked the performance, but then admitted that they had pretty mainstream tastes in regards to contemporary music. It's great how students can make an average class activity into an exciting activity.<BR/><BR/>And I'm not surprised about NEC. They've had a good theory program for a long time.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286095156825716887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980672.post-1160349117944920602006-10-08T19:11:00.000-04:002006-10-08T19:11:00.000-04:00Scott, your material for class makes me wish I cou...Scott, your material for class makes me wish I could have had a class like yours back in undergrad.
