The year in reviews are getting outta hand, guys.
Next service that offers me a 2025 lookback gets a virtual punch in the face.
Best Buy KNOWS how to hide the unsubscribe link. This is next-level skill:
MeasureU invited me to talk about AI-driven SEO workflows. So I did - the audience was great, and I had virtual snacks. Here are the slides, the workflow Markdown, and some other somewhat-random links. ianlurie.me/ai-seo-workf...
Damn. I did not think of that.
