My first response is that the title of the article is a little bit misleading – you really cannot prevent someone from scraping your content or stealing your stuff. This is the internet and anything published can […]

Seems absurd the French would try and trademark this name. What do you think @xavier?
-
Compagnie de Trucy is an investment firm and they say they are willing to create a “luxury” brand around rooibos (http://www.jeuneafrique.com/actu/20130307T210023Z20130307T210018Z/).
Burke International tried to do the same in the US in 1994 and lost.Unless they really try to do that (and trademaking a generic name all around the place is silly…[Read more]

I really want to listen to this, but unfortunately my computer isn’t compatible with itunes podcasts. Any chance you’ll be uploading the audio file as an mp3 or something similar to your main website?

@peter every podcast can also be downloaded from my blog as well : ) There’s a new one coming up on tuesday.

This has nothing to do with tea, but after reading it I had to share it. Part inspiration, part logic. The process of learning how to fail faster.

I’m also going to close this thread since its for an old issue. When something like this occurs, its always best to start a new thread so it gets attention sooner.

Was pleased to see that our Tea Industry Q&A ranks #1 on Google for the phrase “tea industry” – at least it did when I searched it. It didn’t show up at all on Bing or Yahoo! However, if it is ranking on Google, then, well Mission Accomplished because that is what I set out for it to do.

It’s great, I got the same result. However, it’d be even greater if we could maximize its prime position. Not sure how to go about that.

#5 in my personalized search, but that is me 🙂

I often come across great articles that I want to share and had originally planned to start doing write ups on the main Tea Trade about the topic.

The home page is back to normal now. A recent update messed up the headlines list so I had to reconfigure it and get the code working properly. Thanks to @thedevotea for keeping me motivated on it!

I feel a palpable sense of relief.

Not very scientific. Putting a heating element in the narrow base to boil the water in a glass cylinder is going to take forever. Not enough surface contact between the water and the heat source. Not to mention all the escaping heat up the long length of the cylinder that the heating element has to compensate for. Now if he had used boiling flasks…[Read more]

It depends on how strong and focused the heath source is. I hope the glass does not melt…
