Rocky Balboa

  • Submitted my article to the Saipan Tribune for publication this Wednesday

  • Angelo and I have been speaking about branding the CNMI and Saipan for the purpose of helping the international image in the minds of tourists. I thought of the phrase "native beauty" to describe the natural landscape here.

  • Saw Rocky Balboa, the movie today. I think I was the only person in the theatre. (Ahhh, the joy of being able to see movies in the middle of the day!)

  • WeLoveSaipan.com is now at position 50 for a Google search of "saipan"
    [here's an excerpt from an overview of the WeLoveSaipan idea and goals written by Angelo:]

    We basically wanted to find all of the local people publishing info about life on Saipan and get them to join the We Love Saipan Network. When we've exhausted that pool of people, we'll start a campaign to get more local people publishing pictures and stories online using the various free websites out there like blogger, livejournal, etc. The idea being that search engine typically rank a website based on the number of other websites that link to them. The more websites we have linking to us (and us to them), the higher we will appear in search engines.

    We launched the website on Dec. 6, 2006 and at that time we appeared as the 155th result in a google search for Saipan. Today when we did a search we were #50. In the span of under a month, we have been able to go from nothing to the fifth page of a search result for Saipan.
