It is only a favicon...

Wikipedia defines a favicon as:

"A favicon (short for favorites icon), also known as a website icon, shortcut icon, url icon, or bookmark icon is a 16×16, 32×32 or 64×64 pixel square icon associated with a particular website or webpage.[1] A web designer can create such an icon and install it into a website (or webpage) by several means, and most graphical web browsers will then make use of it."  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon

I describe it as making my browser look good and reduce the time it takes to identity the website in the browser tabs, saving me precious seconds which I could be using to look at free streaming porn.  Flash sites are the worse.. not just for the favicon, but they all lack one it seems.  An example of this is http://www.wbrettwilson.ca/ .  They use the common flash based celebrity styled website format which sucks ass if you ask me..

Why you say does such a little thing bother me?  Well from a users perspective we define good or bad based on what the big guys do.  Thus if google has a favicon and you don't then in that one single aspect google has done a better job than you.  It seems so small but when you consider often it is the small details that make people leave your site, not trust your site.. can you afford to not take 10 minutes to create a simple image?  If you are using flash it is harder I understand but then again what the heck are you doing using flash which I yell about next time..

They call me the urlpirate and this is my cobweb...

Letter to Floraqueen.. FUCK OFF AND QUIT SPAMMING ME

I use to love your service.. in fact I have spent a few grand using it... but then you kept spamming me about some girl I don't date anymore and it really pissed me off.  I have tried emailing you before asking you to stop doing this but you ignore me... and so I will make this simple.. if you ever email me again for any reason I am going to make you famous on youtube.. I will make sure everyone knows about how you better not send flowers via floraqueen cause if you break up with the girl they will remind you of it over and over again.  STOP FUCKING HARRASING ME.. and if I get anymore emails I am going to get a restraining order against your company.. how do you think that will look? Good marketing by the way.. you took a guy who loved your service to someone who hates it.. and you better believe me when I say my reach is in the 1000's across the world cause I am a tuber, blogger, tweeter.. FUCK OFF

Stop telling me it is free when you require my creditcard gigaom...

One of the things those who use the internet are weary of is services that say we have a free trial...but require your creditcard.. then after x amount of time they will automatically charge your card cause you forgot to cancel your account.. or couldn`t cancel your account online because it is a security risk to do so, even though it is not a security risk to enter your creditcard.... what does it say about a company if they say it is a security risk to cancel your account? Are they saying there login is not secure...

now I am not saying gigaom is doing the same thing in regards to the login and canceling the account... but they do use the freemium method that drives people insane...

STOP IT

Where is the Beach sunwing?

People say you cannot change the world.  You cannot stop corporations from screwing you over and maybe they are right... but I have never been very good at listening to other people in this world.  Instead choosing to fight the battle you cannot win...er maybe you can.. I mean it was not that long ago that a musician created a song about how United broke his guitar and the video went viral where United was forced to pay for the damage.  Although my problem is a litle different I hope for the same result. 

See every winter I try to take a vacation to the tropics because I suffer from seasonal affective disorder.  I am like superman and I need sun.  This year I choose to go to Mexico after doing a lot of research online.  For me the one thing I wanted was to be on the beach.  Something about the water crashing into the shores which relaxes me. 

The resort I choose was the Plaza Pelicanos in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.  As you can see by the picture it says it is a Beachfront hotel so it fit my needs.  Well apparently Sunwing.ca likes to lie to people because what appears to be one hotel is actually 2 and the club room is actually part of the not so nice second hotel which is not on the beach.  Not that you could actually determine that from the picture can you because they take you to the brochure for the nice hotel, not the club which is not on the beach, which was a piece of crap full of loud kids.  A place I would never choose to stay at. 

Then after complaining to Sungwing.ca about this they make me wait 4 weeks before responding and then say it was my fault for not reading the right brochure even though their website does not link to the right brochure.  I call this the corporate two step... meaning they are just trying to stall until I give up.. what they don't understand is I never give up and I hate being lied to.. so they are going to be my bitches.. meaning I will start out with just blogging which links to twitter, links to facebook which will link all over the internet because companies should not get away with lying.  The travel industry is notorious for misleading people into paying a fortune for a vacation in a crap hotel when it looks wonderful online. 

So sungwing.ca the gauntlet has been thrown.  This is just one blog post but imagine what will happen when I start blogging weekly, tweeting daily, doing videos on youtube which gets some really good SEO in google.. meaning when people search for all inclusive they will find my blogs, videos and tweets.  The thing is all a person needs is one reason not to trust a company and I will shout that reason from the roof top of my computer..

Nobody fucks with the igebadia...

Dam you itunes...

I have xmen and any given sunday stuck in some loop in my itunes player... for all the good things itunes does it seems to work very hard to be annoying.. I don't know how many times I have to enter the same fucjcken password over and over again in itunes... even the dam the scroll bars are next to impossible to click on.. they rarely update their fucken shows in a predictable fashion.. people on youtube are more reliable.. would it kill them to tell us when they will have a tv show available to download.. just be a little dam predictable?  No..

Do Americans know how to Google?

Sometimes when you try to buy things online, try to get information online you want to scream out "I am not fucken American, not everybody in the world is American you arrogant fuckers."  Now I have nothing against Americans, I just hate how often these big businesses think everyone is like Americans.  You see this in data collection forms where they use the word state and zipcode when if your from Canada you have a province and postal code.  The funny thing is when you point it out to someone they usually don't think it is a big deal... typical... well maybe to you it isn't but when your from another country it is a slap in the face.  What you couldn't Google to see what they call things in other countries.. have it change when the user selects the country? No.. ok.. well then how about not assuming everyone else practises thanksgiving on the same day American does... cause in Canada the pilgrims game a few weeks earlier and then headed to the US.. don't know if that is true..

See twice in the past 2 years I have gotten happy thanksgiving emails from companies.. one costed Rackspace having me host on their servers.  I mean honestly if they can't get my thanksgiving right how the hell are they going to figure out something like hosting a website?  Then just recently some SEO expert who likes to spam me did the same thing.  Even worse when I pointed this out to him he asked me what was the date?  I haven't responded because I would have to say .. go to google, type in Canadian Thanksgiving... I don't feel like being an ass to his face cause if he don't know how to google then he has enough problems. 

I got a question for all you americans.. at what poin does it stop becoming funny to see someone answer Mexico when Jay Leno says what are our neighbors to the north and just become embarrassing.. Education in the so good you can't even google and don't know what north is...

They call me igebadia.. check out my youtube channel.. http://youtube.com/urlpirates

Today's bug shown in the picture is the "share" button I believe by addthis... has anyone ever heard of a close button cause it is so annoying when it opens in front of content and your like close already..
