This week at the Search Engine Roundtable, I covered the news that Google has released the year long beta for all AdSense publishers to test out. Google Instant Previews officially launched and I had some suggestions for Google Webmaster Tools in regards to that. Google changes the search ads label from "sponsored links" to "ads." They also test eleven ads at the top. The Microsoft adCenter bug might mean you have been banned due to quality issues. Business.com's directory is going offline. Yahoo is cutting jobs and Ask.com officially closed their search division, cutting 130 people. PubCon was this week and I shared our coverage and my favorite session. In Google Logos / Doodles this week we have Robert Louis Stevenson of the Treasure Island, the Veteran's Day logos from Google, Bing and Ask and Google's X-Ray logo. That was this past week at the Search Engine Roundtable.
