So Google I/O is going on now, the keynote was yesterday, I'll embed the video of it below so you can watch it if you want. There wasn't that much at all around SEO and search. Some Maps updates, Google News, some Google Assistant updates, some Firebase updates - don't get me wrong, these were significant updates but in terms of core search - pretty much nothing was announced. So to sum it up, I figured I'd embed the tweets from Google that I thought are most meaningful to the SEO and webmaster community.
First, here is the keynote:
Now for the tweets:
