Being included on Planet Perl

So brian d foy recently wrote about gaming search engines by including the phrase perl blog or I like perl programming in the posts on use.perl.org but actually the fact that Planet Perl is the first hit in Google for perl blog makes it a good place to be included.

So I asked the webmaster and within a few hours due to our time differences my blog started to show up.

Luckily they do filter on Perl related keywords so not all of my posts will show up. After all mine is not a perl blog.

Of course what brian wrote is that the search engines are crap because everyone does this but that does not take away from me being happy that my blog is included on Planet Perl.
