			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Link Farmer</strong><br />
The other day we talked about the bad to the bone new system the Kaptain is about to make available for the masses to destroy the internet with.  One of the many awesome components contained therein is what we&#8217;re calling the Link Farmer.</p>
<p>The link farmer is basically a two piece tool.  The first piece allows you to specify &#8220;External Links&#8221; being links to URLs outside of the site you are on.  You can specify as many external links as you&#8217;d like and remove them at any time.  These links are used by the second piece of the link farm puzzle, the actual Link Farmer.  You will also need to assign some keywords to the links so we know which keywords / phrases on your sites to replace with links to other sites for you.</p>
<p>On the Link Farmer tool you are first greeted with a way to setup domain groups.  These domain groups are comprised of domains you have registered in the system and are using to create the sites.  Once you create the domain group you can then assign domains to the group and links (entered from the external links tool) to be displayed on each of the domains in the group.</p>
<p>Now your sites are ready to rock with showing external links blended in with the content on the page with your keywords as anchor text.  Pretty cool, huh?</p>
<p>So, to recap you can define external links and keywords to be used as anchor text for those links then assign those external links to groups of domains to show the links on.  You now have a simple way to setup massive link farms to be used for whatever underhanded trickery you have dreamed up.</p>
<p>Great way to launder links since the system will be in the background building links to all of the domains you have registered in the system and you now have a big awesome link farm promoting your money site(s).</p>
<p>More to come as well as an official release date.  Hang on, we&#8217;re almost there. <img src='http://www.kaptainkrayola.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, after building the K5Gen Site Generator the Kaptain was hungry for more.  He realized that while he had a massive arsenal of internet destroying tools, he didn&#8217;t have them all bundled up nicely into a single command center of awesome.  This issue has been resolved.</p>
<p>He went a little overboard and built everything from a site generator with multiple content generation sources, to a massive scraper for link targets and keywords, as well as an automatic back link building machine.  As if that weren&#8217;t enough, he built in IP delivery, referrer redirection from the SERPs, the ability to hide your site from prying eyes with a &#8220;page not found&#8221; error for non-bots and anything but SERPs traffic.  You can also setup redirects for an entire domain or just certain keywords and you can configure a different redirect URL for each keyword you assign to your domain.</p>
<p>Did we mention that the system also sits 24 hours 7 days per week scraping on topic link targets and dropping links to all of your sites?  Well, it does.</p>
<p>The application is topped off nicely with a simple to use user interface that even your 97 year old grandmother could figure out how to use.  The application lets you manage your domains, keywords, keyword groups, domain groups, site templates, external links and link farm options, and even allows you to setup Link Blasts (we&#8217;ll blast links to your site all at once rather than per day as you like) to your sites whenever you want.  </p>
<p>As if that weren&#8217;t enough, the sites this bundle of awesome generates will run on the cheapest of the cheap free hosting services.  You don&#8217;t need an expensive dedicated server to get started mass producing sites with this &#8211; cheap shared host somewhere will work just fine.  </p>
<p>OH and we almost forgot to mention site templates &#8211; the system comes preloaded with hundreds of site templates to choose from.  Not just any templates either, real deal WordPress Themes directly from the WordPress themes site.  We&#8217;ll be adding more themes daily as well.  The sites use actual WordPress themes but w/o you having to setup WordPress so your sites look like WordPress blogs but really aren&#8217;t (Shhhh&#8230;..).  </p>
<p>Here are some sample screenshots from the managment application&#8217;s UI:</p>
<p><strong>Domains</strong><br />
<a href="http://www.kaptainkrayola.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/domains.png" target="new"><br />
<img src="http://www.kaptainkrayola.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/domains-150x150.png" alt="domains" title="domains" width="150" height="150" class="aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-59" /><br />
</a></p>
<p><strong>Domain Options</strong><br />

</a></p>
<p><strong>Template Chooser</strong><br />

</a></p>
<p><strong>Keywords / Keyword Groups</strong><br />
<a href="http://www.kaptainkrayola.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/keyword-groups.png" target="new"><br />
<img src="http://www.kaptainkrayola.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/keyword-groups-150x150.png" alt="keyword-groups" title="keyword-groups" width="150" height="150" class="aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-60" /></a></p>
<p>More details about the release of this awesome system to the public to follow shortly.  We&#8217;re putting some finishing touches on it before we&#8217;re comfortable letting you filthy spammers loose on it.  We ARE accepting certain people early on a case by case basis.  If you are interested, look up the Kaptain on MSN or ICQ.  If you don&#8217;t know how to contact him on either of those channels, you probably won&#8217;t be accepted into the pre-release <img src='http://www.kaptainkrayola.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  .</p>
<p>With all of that said, if you aren&#8217;t interested in the features we&#8217;ve mentioned feel free to go buy a similar setup from our competition.  Oh wait, that&#8217;s right, there aren&#8217;t any because no one in the history of civilized man has had the balls to release something like this to the public.</p>

<p>Imagine being able to distribute links 24/7 to thousands of places and never having to worry about using a proxy or installing questionable applications on your server or home machine.  Instead, How about using your visitors to distribute links and ping your blogs for you?  Yep, you read that right &#8211; your visitors do the work for you and are none the wiser.  Too good to be true?  We think not (because we got to test the alpha version *evil grin*  ).</p>
<p>Stay tuned for more information about this yet-to-be-announced ass kicking service.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently the Kaptain, in his never ending search for free sources of music, stumbled upon <a href="http://www.pandora.com">pandora.com</a>.  Pandora.com is an internet radio type site that lets you put in a band or song you like then finds other songs it thinks you&#8217;ll like and plays them.  It also gives you the ability to give a song the thumbs up or thumbs down to help it learn what you like.</p>
<p>Pandora is part of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_Genome_Project">Music Genome Project</a> which the Kaptain had never heard of before but is also quite an interesting concept.<br />
<br /><Br><br />
What Wikipedia says about the Music Genome Project:</p>
<blockquote><p>
The Music Genome Project, created in January 2000, is an effort founded by Will Glaser, Jon Kraft, and Tim Westergren to &#8220;capture the essence of music at the fundamental level&#8221; using over 400 attributes to describe songs and a complex mathematical algorithm to organize them.</p>
<p>A given song is represented by a vector containing approximately 150 genes. Each gene corresponds to a characteristic of the music, for example, gender of lead vocalist, level of distortion on the electric guitar, type of background vocals, etc. Rock and pop songs have 150 genes, rap songs have 350, and jazz songs have approximately 400. Other genres of music, such as world and classical, have 300-500 genes. The system depends on a sufficient number of genes to render useful results. Each gene is assigned a number between 1 and 5, and fractional values are allowed but are limited to half integers. (The term genome is borrowed from genetics.)</p>
<p>Given the vector of one or more songs, a list of other similar songs is constructed using a distance function.</p>
<p>To create a song&#8217;s genome, it is analyzed by a musician in a process that takes 20 to 30 minutes per song. Ten percent of songs are analyzed by more than one technician to ensure conformity with the standards, i.e., reliability.</p></blockquote>
<p>
The Kaptain has been using it for a week and he&#8217;s got to say it&#8217;s pretty good at picking music that he likes.  Every so often it will play something outside of the normal routine but we can only guess it&#8217;s to keep branching out for new music you might like.
</p>

It&#8217;s worth a look if you like listening to music and don&#8217;t feel like pirating all those MP3s.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Kaptain has been <strong>busy</strong>!  With all of the raping and pillaging of the internet it&#8217;s tough to get into the rhythm of posting fantastic material on this otherwise pointless site.  The Kaptain did want to take the time to go over some of the things he&#8217;s learned lately and pass that knowledge onto the 6 or so people that will actually read it.</p>
<p>
<strong>1. Client work sucks</strong>.  For some reason one day the Kaptain decided that taking on clients was a good idea.  Someone should have bitch slapped him with a catcher&#8217;s mit full of pureed mango that day because it&#8217;s most certainly not a good idea.  Sure, the money is good and it&#8217;s quick but dealing with people that you aren&#8217;t stabbing full of holes and robbing (although some people might call the Kaptain&#8217;s rates robbery) just isn&#8217;t worth it.
</p>
<p>
<strong>2.  Drinking is good</strong>.  Not that it&#8217;s any kind of revelation or anything but after dealing with clients drinking <em>really</em> helps.  Self medication anyone?
</p>
<p>
<strong>3.  Set goals for your work</strong>.  Without goals you end up wasting a bunch of time and effort half-assing projects all over the place and never really getting yourself anywhere.  Set some <em>realistic</em> goals for yourself and your work and do a little each day to achieve them.
</p>
<p>
<strong>4.  Stay focused and on track</strong>.  The Kaptain walked into a shit storm of work with the goal of &#8220;make a whole bunch of cash real fast&#8221; which landed him in the client work boat in the first place.  It&#8217;s been crucial that he stays on track with each project and doesn&#8217;t get distracted dicking around on <a href="http://www.syndk8.net">syndk8</a>, <a href="http://www.perkiset.org/forum/">the Cache</a>, and <a href="http://www.affearners.com">aff earners</a> even though they are fantastic time sinkholes.  Keep plugging away and you will triumph over the evil hate pile that is your work.
</p>
<p>
<strong>5. Destroy the internet</strong>.  That&#8217;s what it&#8217;s here for.  Destroying the internet can be automated and the grunt work sluffed off on someone else.  Internet destruction is infinitely better than client work because the busted ass internet doesn&#8217;t call you 40 times a day to tweak a graphic or change a sentence on a page that they could easily do with the CMS you spent hours setting up for them but would rather have you do it to exert some kind of power or authority over you (you know who you are and The Kaptain knows where you fucking sleep).  See number 1 for further clarification.
</p>
<p>
<strong>6. Mangoes suck</strong>.  They support communism (see the entire fucking site).
</p>
<p>
<strong>7.  There&#8217;s no money in doing the work</strong>.  Get someone else to do it, period.  Having goals is good but having a team of people to accomplish those goals for you while you are drinking (See number 2) is the best way to do it.  Get a team of people together that you can rule with an iron fist and get them working &#8211; you have more important things to do (See number 2).
</p>
<p>
<strong>8.  People will ruin everything</strong>.  Most of the time anything that messes with the flow of your awesomeness is caused by people; people suck.  Lately it&#8217;s been people that want to make a name for themselves (or just piss The Kaptain off) talking when they should be profiting.  You guys need to grow some balls, listen to some metal, and make some money &#8211; not talk.   If you have figured out a great way to make some loot that no one else is exploiting just keep it to yourself because as soon as you start running your yap about it the opportunity is going away, period.  Find a better way to convince yourself you aren&#8217;t a complete waste of flesh and stop fucking up other people&#8217;s income streams.
</p>
<p>
<strong>9.  Punching people is fun</strong>. Do it, it relieves stress from things like clients and loud mouth fucks (see numbers 1 &#038; 8).<br />
<br />
<em>Disclaimer: don&#8217;t punch people and if you do, don&#8217;t blame the Kaptain because he just told you NOT to (don&#8217;t punch people m&#8217;kay?)</em>
