the-pulse-icon.jpgThe fourteenth edition of the Search Pulse has now been archived. We were able to discuss in detail about half of the topics I wanted. This week, we talked about the holiday season and the new year. We argued about a possible Google update. We also debated on the blog tip Google is offering. We looked at social links and gave some tips with that. Overall, we had some pretty good discussions that may be of use to you in the 2007 year.
