Plug

This is a shameless plug for my other web sites. After all, my blog ought to be an opportunity to promote myself. This is also a blatant request (aka "beg") that you, dear reader, help me out by putting links to my sites and this blog (http://andrewsigal.blogspot.com/) on your web sites and blogs. Helping promote my sites through social bookmarking (delicious, digg, etc.) would be icing on the cake!

My primary web site is Sigal.org, http://www.sigal.org/, what we used to call my "homepage" in the good old days. Under that site is included my work in culinary history. In particular, I have written the definitive work (to date) on the history and origins of Jambalaya. Unfortunately, Google doesn't realize that my work is the final word on the subject so I show up halfway down the results if you search for "jambalaya history." If you'd like to link to http://www.sigal.org/CulinaryHistory/Jambalaya/Jambalaya.htm, it would help my page ranking.

Though I haven't updated it for quite some time, my "commercial" site is TripTalk.com, http://www.triptalk.com/default.asp. Though the text is getting somewhat long in the tooth, most visitors to the site look at the photos. I hope they find them valuable.

Hopefully this post will increase my page rankings. If you have a site or blog and feel comfortable mentioning or linking to my pages, I would be grateful.
