PyratePhil Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I've been working on optimizing my website for the search engines, and as part of that I'm subscribed to a keyword analysis service. These are the top ten keyword searches performed for today so far... 1 porn 6476 2 pu**y 4598 3 myspace 4435 4 sex 4228 5 google 3766 6 boobs 3481 7 ebay 3463 8 yahoo 3349 9 myspace.com 3038 10 hentai 2930 Now, the Net's a wonderful invention - it holds the possibilities of bringing us all up out of the mire of our bleak existence. The Net is the repository for the greatest thoughts in history, for stimulating discussions (like at Pyracy Pub ), beautiful works of art that you can sit back and admire while you sip your coffee... ...so WHY are 50% of the searches concerned with sex? Are we THAT desparate? Are we that horny? And the other 50% are concerned with mega-corporations that cater to the lowest common denominator. (Apologies to any who used these terms today - I used MySpace today, too!) Are we that shallow? Can't we put in some more precise search terms, or is it, as I suspect, yet another case of the horde of lemmings rushing to the edge? Comments? ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duchess Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I'd like to offer up this find. Which uses the second most popular internet feature, online gaming. All the actions are built in commands in a game called Guild Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Brand Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 THE WAY TO A PYRATE'S HEART is a thread "Of drink and feasting", yet how many of the threads are actually about food and drink? The internet is often about lowest common denominators, so "drinking and feasting" becomes, "drunken meat-market". "Internet" has become synonymous with "Free Porn". A friend of mine worked for a company that tracked internet service for half of his state. 97% of the traffic was porn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyratePhil Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 THE WAY TO A PYRATE'S HEART is a thread "Of drink and feasting", yet how many of the threads are actually about food and drink? True...very true. Lack of focus? The internet is often about lowest common denominators, so "drinking and feasting" becomes, "drunken meat-market". "Internet" has become synonymous with "Free Porn". A friend of mine worked for a company that tracked internet service for half of his state. 97% of the traffic was porn. Whoa... No wonder I still want to live on that mountain... Just thinking out loud here, but...could all this be because your average user of the Net is in their teens / twenty-somethings? Or, are the elders in the nursing homes sneaking into the nurse's station late at night and surfing to www.bodiliciousbabes.com, too? ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusi Sparrow Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Or, are the elders in the nursing homes sneaking into the nurse's station late at night and surfing to www.bodiliciousbabes.com, too? Of course they do Phil. That clip made me laugh. I try to advoid sex on the internet. And maybe it's because there are so many people, who'd like to have a relationship, but don't seem to find the right partner and on the other hand don't like ONS.

Duchess Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 So, Phil, how does this all go together with your participation in plentiful written online porn in our very own pub? Pots and kettles perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyratePhil Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 By the way, Duchess - did you see all the variations on YouTube with that song? Puppets, cartoons, stage plays...do you know if Avenue Q is the originator of that song, or was it someone else? ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyratePhil Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 So, Phil, how does this all go together with your participation in plentiful written online porn in our very own pub? Pots and kettles perhaps? I was patiently waiting for you to ask... If you were to take the total amount of time I spend here and compare it to the total time I spend on my work, the percentages are nowhere close to what the keyword search analysis showed. And..."written online porn"? You ain't seen nothin' yet...this isn't even softcore. If you're offended by what I write, I'll just tell you what I tell everyone else - don't read it. . It isn't as if I'm posting nudie pix of myself here, either - I think the surfers, illiterate for the most part, aren't as concerned with porn writing as they are porn images... ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not offended, I just think it completely gratuitous. And while it might be different outlets, it is the same motivation, titillation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyratePhil Posted June 30, 2006 Author Share Posted June 30, 2006 I'm not offended, I just think it completely gratuitous. Well, I'm glad you're not offended. Gratuitous? No...it serves a purpose... ...one which, it seems, you either have no need of, or are unaware of. Either way, I was under the impression that this was the Pyracy Pub...I don't believe pyrates were known for their god-fearing attitudes, no matter what the "experts" among us proclaim. And while it might be different outlets, it is the same motivation, titillation. Thank you, Doctor. Where should I send my analysis fee? Posting the link to that video was wonderful - I really appreciate that. But if you want to pshrink me, let's start a new thread, hokey-dokey? ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just posted that one since it seemed like the best on to me. Phil, Avenue Q is the originator of that song. Avenue Q is a musical currently playing in New York and Las Vegas that covers a lot of different subjects. Some of the best songs on there are: Everyone's a little bit racist If you were gay And of course - The Internet is for Porn As Duchess said there's a lot of different little flash movies featuring The Internet is for Porn - My favorite being the World of Warcraft version. But then I'm a World of Warcraft geek and I like the Tauren (the cowlike race) that shows up in that video :) I definately plan on watching the Guild Wars version when I get home though... that looks amusing Confessions of a Wicked Wench ~ Myspace! ~ Handlebars @ DeviantArt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
