Getting after it. My man!

Wow, you can't make this stuff up. You should be honored, tbh 🤣

Right, but AIOs don't necessitate/encourage clicks, they answer questions. Especially on mobile, the links are not the focus. I think I'd rather appear as the #1 clickable resource for the folks that scroll further, rather than as a brand mention in a paragraph that answers a question outright.

I think it's still #1 for me. The real value of AIO visibility is unclear to me. Not saying it's not valuable, but does anyone think that AIOs are driving *more* clicks than traditional SERPs?

Thrilled to be featured on the Voices of Search podcast, where I spoke with Jordan about SEO, generative search, and winning AI Overviews in the health space. This was my first time on a podcast and I really enjoyed the experience.

Toss that Ring in the trash.

In this scenario, I wonder where that visibility shifts to? Non-health sites covering health topics (Forbes, etc)?

Does visibility index consider AIOs as part of overall SERP share of voice, or is this based on "traditional" organic rank?

Ken Marino leading his band through “Ophelia” sounds way better than it has any business being. David Wain is a beast on drums. This was a delightful evening of nostalgic jams and hilarious stories at Great American in SF last night.

Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that. I picked up on the snark and was playing along, but I hope your day picks up from here.

Hey buddy, are you feeling alright this morning?

Trail running the Ohlone wilderness, from Del Valle to Rose Peak, through Sunol, and ending after climbing Mission Peak in San Jose

Backpacking the Ohlone Wilderness Trail has always been high on my bucket list. Yesterday we ran it instead.

Couldn’t have asked for better weather, and it’s so beautifully green out there right now. So much climbing, but we had a lot of fun.

Roughly 30 miles and 8k vert 🫠

They’re awesome. I’ve really enjoyed them every time I’ve seen them.

The first time was at that fest (MMMF?) in AZ that the Biscuits (and Tribe) played back in 2015ish. Biscuits “S” set.

Their show at Moe’s Alley in Santa Cruz late last year was a lot of fun, if you need another show to dig into.

A discussion of metal bands on Reddit.

Metal recommendations crack me up.

"I felt physically bad after listening to [this album] for the first time"

"Yeah. It’s like being in hell."

#EmotionalSobriety

Here’s @trey.com on The Small Bow podcast talking real-world application of emotional sobriety. Simple but powerful. I think about this a lot.

Poison oak rash on face/eye. So much fun.

Poison oak on my eye is just one of the many perks that come with the trail running lifestyle. A small gift from the redwoods.

Registration confirmation for Saddles 50 mile race in Prescott, AZ

Just signed up for my first 50 mile race. This feels both completely insane and like a logical progression of my running journey. LFG.

It's so wonderful. Used to see dozens of shows a year there. This Bob Weir show was one of the best. I live in Santa Cruz now and I miss it dearly.

People say Barber is weird? Mike Gordon is weird with a capital W.

Thanks bub. Heading to see my local weekly Dead cover jawn in a few, but will def throw this on soon.

So sad about Bob Weir's passing. I found the Dead in my 20s, but their music continues to reveal itself to me, resonating in new ways as I get older. Phil & Friends at Langerado '08 hooked me, but Bobby was always my favorite. Here's video from Bob & Wolf Bros @ Greek Berkeley '21, a great show.

ChatGPT says that wegovy is not available as a pill, only as an injection.

Stoked to hear about ChatGPT Health. Does this mean they'll start to focus on providing accurate information?

As of this morning, ChatGPT tells me that the Wegovy pill is not real, so I'm not holding my breath...
