Flippin' Out for JCPenney

Posted by Tim on June 20, 2008 at 8:59 am

Just when you thought we had been the victims of a horribly disfiguring 3 person bicycle accident, we reappear safe and sound in the Oneupweb studios for another episode of StraightUpSearch the Podcast!

Here’s the rundown for today’s show:

Cool Tool: Flip Video (4:12)

Do It!: Unique/Dynamic 800#s (8:29)

Site of the Week: JCPenney (11:45)

Yes, we mixed up the rundown order today – thanks for noticing. Today’s show calls it quits at: 25:55

Dull Knives and Sharp Tools

Posted by Tim on May 30, 2008 at 9:51 am

Sure, we took a week off. What of it? Even after a year and a half hiatus, we needed some time alone to think, read the classics, ponder the intricacies of Mozart, etc. Who am I kidding? We were watching 80’s movies!

Regardless, we wrangled ourselves back into the studio this week for another episode of StraightUpSearch the Podcast!

Here’s the rundown for today’s show:

Site of the Week: Cutco Cutlery, otherwise known as Vector Marketing?! (1:46)

Cool Tool: Firebug (13:16)

Do It!: ALT Attributes (23:10)

Today’s show is just shy of heavy-weight status at: 28:45

And, as promised, here’s a photo of Lisa’s classic camping rig:

Camping Rig or EM-50 Clone?

Which in our warped minds, looks strangely similar to a certain EM-50 Urban Assault Vehicle:

Getting the Band Back Together

Posted by Keirsun on May 19, 2008 at 9:05 am

The Crazy Train Rolls Again! At least that’s what we’re calling the new episode of StraightUpSearch the Podcast.

Why you ask? Because the original cast members are back at the helm: Lisa, Dave and Tim. And in the spirit of the original show, we’ve reworked our format to include a Site of the Week (formerly What Were They Thinking?!), the Cool Tool, and our new favorite, Do It!

Today’s showcase includes:

Site of the Week: TomTom.com (4:49)

Cool Tool: SearchStatus (18:05)

Do It!: 404 Not Found Errors (24:25)

Today’s Show Weighs in at: 30:59

The Right Tool for the Job

Posted by Keirsun on May 9, 2008 at 9:10 am

Welcome to Friday and the next episode of StraightUpSearch the Podcast!

Tim’s guests this week are Drew and Leah, who are here to discuss the economic benefits of outsourcing your search engine marketing efforts to a preferred vendor, specifically during a downturn in the economy.

Our conversation this week stems from Drew’s recent blog post, SEM Agencies to the Recession Rescue!, which was our most popular post last week.

Enjoy the show and we’ll be back next week.

Hey Buddy, Got a Dime?

Posted by Keirsun on May 2, 2008 at 9:20 am

Welcome to another episode of StraightUpSearch the Podcast.

Amy and Anne join Tim in the studio this week to look at how much cash the employees at each search engine have contributed to the three remaining presidential candidates.

The motivation for this week’s conversation was Amy’s recent blog post, The Politics of Google, Yahoo and Microsoft: Searching for a Winner in the 2008 Presidential Election, which was our most popular blog post last week.
