This may not make sense to many, but with a little API tomfoolery I can generate 600 images across nearly 200 countries for a site I built in a few hours.

It's been a while since i pissed about with vibe coding, I've just revisited a few.
You could slap me round the face with a wet kitten and called me Susan in comparison to last year. There is a fundamental coding change. I've built things tonight in a few hours that would've taken me 3 days.

Hi, hello.
I've been through a thing, still not through it, never will be. But i'm learning to walk alongside it.
Something as impersonable as this place, may help. I have no idea.
The bits that hold me together are SEO. For the past 21 years.
So i'll try my best to start here.

This'll be the first time in 36 years where me & the mrs are not waking up with kids.
They've all flown the nest.
I might just wake the mrs up at 5am to go downstairs like an excited kid.
Just to keep it going.

To this very day, after 25 years in online search marketing, i remind myself that the smarter people than me (real biz owners), have no idea of how to create a LinkedIn account.
So HTF are they supposed to understand how search works?

Added more functionality to manflu.app. You can now ask questions to check whether you're really about to pop your clogs; it will generate an answer (in 7 languages) and automatically post it to @manflu.app
Automated varied internal links for different languages are a fun puzzle.

I foresaw the AI/LLM slow picking at everything we've built, as SEOs, as content creators.
There's two things it still can't do (despite easier automation).

Fun (painful) SEO fact. I oversaw the (unsuccessful) migration of a very popular travel brand that was aquired by a well known financial (pay later) brand.
From the outset, myself & others I worked with, said it was a very bad idea. The result? The original brand died.
