Flexicell Solves Prepaid Airtime Crisis
So you and a couple mates are busying vibing the sand pit with the hectic waves with your toight abs and lekker shades gooing all around the place. Then you check these mooi squeeeezers out the corner of your eye, and you think that those bettys are ones for the record books. Your first instinct is to call your other best mate who decided he “wasn’t smaaking that vibe” and stayed at home. Loser. You pick up your phone about to give his ass a call to convince him that these betty’s are completely off the chain and need to be attended to ASAP.
You dial his nommer one time coz obviously he is your best bro so he is on speed dial numero uno. “You do not have enough airtime. Please recharge before attempting to make any calls” tunes the chicky on the other side of the phone. Just when you are about to give her a proper klap you realize that you were a flipping chop and didn’t get that R5 airtime voucher on the way to natures swimming pool. Flip oke - amateur move bru.
If you had Flexicell, you wouldn’t be making flipping dof moves like that my china. Flexicell solves that problem for those that are a little bit short of some currency in the kop department. Flexicell goois you a set amount of airtime right off your account right at the start of the month. No more queues with people buying a truck load of food and who smell bad. No more fighting with the bergies outside the shop fighting to get your last suip of papsak just so you can get your sexy hands on another R5 airtime voucher. Flexicell works with a debit order and druks the airtime right off your account for the amount that you signed up. Kief.

So this week I have been in a bit of a weird old school music vibe. Don’t ask because I can’t answer.
Enjoy
Outkast – Ms Jackson
Outkast – Hey Ya!
Then there is this awesome cover of Hey Ya. Really enjoy the different take on things.

I have had this tune stuck in my head for weeks without really knowing the bloody words or the proper tune! Quite frustrating! Anyway, the internet helped me out by producing this awesome clip that has gone viral.
Somebody that I used to know! Enjoy.
- Captain AwesomeSearch Engine Spider Ping Tool
Last night I got thinking about some search engine possibilities and creative ways that I can tackle a couple problems I am having. All of my ideas basically boiled down to having some more research data and I wanted to try a couple experiments myself.
In the end I got an idea that I decided could actually help me quite a bit in terms of investigating things. I am not so sure if it will be an actionable tool, but hey, maybe you guys can expand on the idea and make it awesome.
I want a web based app that simply pings me every time a search engine spider visits my site. I don’t want a notification for each page, but a simple notification of when the spider arrives, how long it was there for, how many pages it crawled, and when it left. I am sure this can be done with a bit of PHP and looking at the server logs, but I don’t have the skills to build this myself.
What got me thinking about some other possibilities was a little tool that I stumbled upon yesterday. It is called Serperture and seems to be an “SEO reporting and analysis tool“. There is pretty much only a landing page up at the moment, but it looks like it could be a really useful tool for SEO’s like me out there. The more tools and scripts I have at my disposal the better.
What do you guys think about that little script? Any other ways that you could use it or expand on it?
