For the search-geek in your life, this handsome "ROBOTS NO FOLLOW" tee. Link (Thanks, Dana!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    It’s a meta-tag thing for webpages. Tells search engine indexes to ignore the page.

    Well, I tried to order, but they have a broken link for sizing chart and their paypal cart won’t do the right shipping amount. Best of all, their contact email inbox rejects messages because there’s no such user at that address. No No Follow shirt for me :(

    But…but… I want the robots to follow me!

    Come, my mechanical brethren – to Freedom!

  • Takuan

    I do hope someone is spending time at the playground teaching new skipping rhymes: “Robots no follow! Robots no follow!” You owe it to your descendants.

    Worrying that I just had to explain the T to our Web Guy ;p
    They also do a very nice Swedish T…

    Ha, yeh. Seems like a “explainer” alright :)

    Even cooler IMHO are the shirts of Retropolis Transit Authority:

    Shouldn’t the image be on the *back* of the shirt?

    Spazzm: who are you, Will Smith?

  • arkizzle

    Bynk, some of those Retropolis designs are great! Thanks for the link :)

  • Proxy Toaster

    It’s cool, but is this a cultural reference to something that is going right over my head?
