I am Bill Dubert. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy from Clemson University in 2005. After graduation I put off going to grad school for a while for whatever reasons make a person do that and, in December of that year, started working part-time with my brother, Scot, who had cofounded a small SEO consulting company, Mozotti. He started teaching me the basics of SEO. I also worked some of the time for his other companies, a gift basket company and a water garden supply site, where I learned a lot about e-commerce and small business. During this time I also waited tables and worked mall retail. In January of 2008 I went to work full-time for a medium-sized e-commerce company as an in-house SEO, where I currently am. I also founded and run my own web publishing group, Creative Self-Loathing, through which I do most of my personal projects and experiments, as well as helping my friends to get sites off of the ground.
Throughout it all, Google. It has become the thread that runs through almost every bit of my professional career. It has some bearing on almost everything I do when sitting at a computer, which is most of my waking hours. It is only natural, then, that with my philosophy training and natural disposition I would start to try to dissect that influence, not on my life but on the very structure of the world's society today.

As a result of my years at Clemson, I have a stack of writing about and of philosophy that I am proud of but have no sensible place to put. This is, as of now, my only real philosophy site, so I'll also be putting some of my old papers, in whatever form, up here. Call it ego.
