New Mr Robot Theories and Ideas Blog

As one of my favorite shows on TV, Mr. Robot has me on edge every single week.  I download the newest episodes as soon as they are available on the East coast just so I don't have to wait that extra few hours to watch them.  But after watching every week I was left with more questions than I had before I watched the show.  Sometimes I even wait a few weeks - even as hard as it is to go that long without my Mr. Robot fix - just so that I can watch those few episodes back to back so that I'm not so riddled with confusion.  So many episodes give you a moment in the last minute or so that just makes you go crazy having to wait another week to see the conclusion.  But then, like I said before, you are just left with more and more questions that you get answers.  Add to that but the show has so many things that you might miss the first time you watch so you end up having to watch multiple times to see and understand everything.  And even after watching all the episodes some things are not fully stated in the show and kind of left to the viewer to make their own decision as to what is really going on. 

And to add to the confusion, the main character Elliot has some mental issues and some of the things that you see in the show are how Elliot would be seeing it and some are how everyone else see it.  This just makes it super hard to really know what is happening because something you see might just be in Elliot's head and you are never really sure what is real and what is not. 

So since I love the show so much and am so obsessed with it I decided to make a blog called Mr. Robot Theories about the show to write about my thoughts and theories about what is going on with the Mr. Robot world.  I hope to be able to talk about the show and my thoughts and theories about what is going on and people will visit and comment on what I have to say.  So please if you like the show visit the site at http://mr-robot-theories.jaredconnell.com for more on my thoughts about Mr. Robot.

My New Blog

Although I really like blogger - it has many great features, it is easy to use, its run by google so it gets great search engine traffic, and best of all it is free.  But all the features in the world can't compete with your own hosted server that you can fully control.  Although I only have a shared hosting plan for now it is still very feature rich and a good stepping stone to getting my own hosted server all to myself when the need arises. In fact I will go over the pro's and con's of having a dedicated server vs. a shared hosting server in a future article but that is beyond the scope of this one.
I have decided that Blogger does not allow me enough freedom for all of the things that I need to do with my web sites, and although I will still continue to leave them live and post on them from time to time, the main focus will now be on my own sites that I host myself.  Furthermore this blog will be mostly succeeded by my new hosted blog at  blog.jaredconnell.com which will now be the new home to all my nonsensical ramblings!  Jokes aside, this new blog will allow people to keep up with most of what I am doing as I will post links on there to most of my other projects as well.  And like I stated previously I will try to continue to keep posting on this blogger blog as often as time allows.  t won't be as much as I would like but I will try and keep it alive for the years to come.  It has been my main online home for my thoughts and everything else for some time now and I don't want to just abandon it.  So although I will post most of my articles that would have gone on the blogger blog on my new hosted blog on my domain name which is located at blog.jaredconnell.com, just think of this as an extension to the blogger, not a replacement for it.  And as I explained in my previous post, my main site at the URL jaredconnell.com is a main site for listings and links to all my current and past projects as well as some basic pictures and videos of myself that document my life and have no other clear organizational scheme.  So please check out  both my blog site at blog.jaredconnell.com as well as my home page at jaredconnell.com and see all that it has to ofter and check back often as it will be updated regularly. 

Who Keeps Google'ing My Name?

When running a website, you get natural organic traffic from search engines. The search engines have spiders that crawl the entire web and catalog everything so that when people search for keywords they can get the best, most relevant page to their search. Naturally some of the things that people search for are a little weird. I always like to see where my traffic is coming from, so I use programs like Google Analytics and even the built in logging functions for different web servers and applications. I have been running web sites for over 6 years now and I've seen all kinds of keywords that people search for. Some of them I want to be listed for, while others are pure surprises. Some of them are just downright weird. But lately, since I've started this particular blog under my own name, I get traffic from search results for all kinds of keywords. It's a little strange when I see people constantly searching for my name, as well as my name along with some weird keyword. The latest one that I couldn't figure out is "Jared Connell needs money". Well I like money, and I guess you go as far as to say that I need money - just as everybody in this world needs money to live. But why the hell would someone be searching for that? Who is so interested in my financial situation that they would go to Google and search for that? I can't figure this one out. I can see who searches for what and I can even narrow the results down to geographical location via their IP. But I can't go so far as to see the name of the people sitting in front of the computer typing the keywords into the search engines, so I'm a little baffled as to who would search for this term. So whoever you are out there, why not leave me a comment below or send me an email or something. Heck, drop me a line of Facebook if you want. Or even Twitter. It doesn't matter, I just want to know who it is and what they want to know about me. I'm not very secretive, but I would like to know who is that interested in me. Heck, maybe it is another Jared Connell that they are looking for. I think there are about 7 of us in the country with the same name. So maybe I'm the wrong Jared Connell, maybe I am the right one. Whatever the case, I would like to know why you are searching for my name so often, and if you are finding out what you want to know. If not, just tell me and I'll tell you firsthand. No need to lurch behind the computer monitor, just drop me a line! If you have the time to search for Jared Connell on Google then surely you have the time to write a simple blog comment or to message me.
