Word Press It's nice to be on top or near it! Search "the prime spot" then "theprimespot" Searches come up differently depending if the word is spaced or not ...

@Frank: He most definitely DOES come up #1. Maybe there's some geotargetting going on somewhere if you're in another part of the world, though. I'm not eliminating that possibility.

Using wordpress.com is a dream! The layout is less geeky than blogger, they have incredible functions allowing you to track visitation, and it's always fun rooting for the underdog. I love and it and wouldn't turn back! Thanks Matt & the Laist, Great Story! Much love from Boston +p.s. if you are frequent the Ginger Man again- if you like the hops- go for the Stone IPA if you like the wheats- go for the Hacker-Pschorr Hefe If you like the browns- Brew House Brown, it's local and if it's hot- go for the Firemans No. 4 (can you tell I used to work there?)

I always forget to "sign out" of Google before doing a search. If you're signed into Gmail or Reader or whatever, you'll see that you're still signed in in the upper right corner when you Search. click sign out and the results may change since the GOOG is smart-searching/personalizing your searches based on your search history

check your settings, you probably have it on something funky.

He definitely does not come up at the top of a google search for "Matt". It would be awesome if he did, but he doesn't.
