You are right. Adsense is also not effective on this site, but Adsense was the only way to monetize the site. Google deactivated Adsense without any warning, so I had no time to remove Adsense on pages with little content.
You probably shouldn't have had them on pages with little content in the first place. You did break one of their policies, but if it's not effective anyways, you haven't really lost anything.
It is actually like a blogging service like blogger.com or wordpress.com So if you want to post more than 140 chars on Twitter, you can login with your twitter account and publish your text, photos or videos.
Google is not right. The site has a lot of original content. Even Brazilian government authorities use richtweets.com to talk to their people. We have over 20k posts an these posts get a lot of comments, retweets and Facebook shares.
Earning money while sleeping is not that difficult. I (living in Europe) run a site with many visitors from US and Japan. Most of the revenues are generated during my sleep time. ;-)
Sorry for the spelling mistake. I meant there and not their.
This can happen, when English is your third language (grown up in Afghanistan, living in Germany) and you don't use English every day.
Why it is not possible to edit this post/question?
We should be applauding Google for supporting standard headers instead of making up new ones. The Link: header is even mentioned in the HTTP 1.0 spec [2] and, as mentioned in the OP, there's even an RFC acting as a registry for the various Link relation types [3].
Though I don't always agree with standards, I hope you'd agree that it really does make sense in this case...
I know HN ist not place to prais php...
PHP ist easy to learn and it easy to code in php, but if your a professional software developer you can also write professional software for php.
You can develop faster, because of large amount of built-in functions and classes. The "shared nothing" philosophy makes it almost unbeatable in terms of performance. Thats why a majority of large sites like Facebook, Wikipedia, Yahoo and Flickr is powered by PHP.
Well php is not as structured as ruby or python. Sometimes it is not structured at all. :-(
Other HN users would certainly talk about disadvantages of PHPafter my comment. ;-)
Please explain how you consider it 'less structured'. I admittedly don't work with much PHP any more, but it has namespaces, classes and objects.
I can write linear Python just as ugly as anything a PHP developer could come up with (probably). And I could write MUCH more destructive C code than anybody in PHP could (probably).
If you mean it's less structured because of Rails or Django, I'd submit that PHP has CodeIgniter, Zend, and a bevy of other frameworks that all seem to be pretty solid to an outsider looking in.
I think part of this is the fact that there are a myriad of functions that are just "baked in" to the language, making it a little chaotic. Sometimes it seems like some PHP contributer needed some function and just decided to add it to the language. (Examples: rsort, sort, http_build_query, rawurldecode, urldecode, etc.)
There should be Util or Helper libraries that do that, and in a much more organized way. On the flip side, these commonly used functions are written in C, so they're most likely faster than if you were to write your own in php or load a library.
Either way, I love PHP and use Symfony for all of my projects. PHP/Symfony is pretty much like rails but without the cracked out ruby syntax.
On a related note, in addition to this domain name front running, who can I turn to, if I want to purchase a domain name anonymously (so my public info isn't obvious).
Something called a 'Private Registration' is offered by most domain registrars. It'll cost you a few extra $, but you will get total privacy in terms of Whois.
Thank yor for your comments, The photos has an arrange quality, like most photos on Flickr, but they are unique, most of them are not published elsewhere.
The don't have meta data, but most of them has a short description. I have some data, like gender and location, about the photographers
