The Brett Jones experiment has been going swimmingly.  I went from not being listed to the 5th result searching for my name on Google.  I'm impressed!  Now the real test will see if I can slink back down to obscurity.

My inner narcissist has won out.  For the last few years I've googled my name, "Brett Jones," just to see what comes up.  There are currently 57,100 hits for my name and I have yet to find one about me.  There are football players, Dr's and even a memorial for a very young Brett Jones (sad) but, nothing about this geek.

I've been very surprised about how many of my articles on this blog get ranked so high on google rankings.  I don't do any SEO and I really don't try to do anything to drive traffic.  So, I will remain doing nothing (I'm lazy) and will start the Brett Jones Experiment.  I want to see if one day I can actually find something about me on google. 

To my loyal readers (both of you): Please don't take this as a challenge to post something mean or damaging.  This is all in good fun.

Here we go:
