Name of this page

Why is my personal web space called "free live nude Linux warez chat"?

It was a search engine thing. In the bad old days, search engines used to put a lot of faith in your page title and meta tags.

Things I was sort of right about in 1998...

Fortunately, Google technology (http://google.stanford.edu/) will make all these search engine games obsolete soon.

Yes, messing around with meta tags went away, but now there's a whole new generation of search engine games. At least today's common-sense search engine optimization now rewards you for putting up content that people actually want to read.
