Google launched the Penguin update this week, it is what was initially called by us as the over optimization algorithm or webspam algorithm. If you were hit on the 24th, it was probably that and you can submit a form to Google to complain. If you were hit around the 19th, then it was a refresh to Panda, Panda 3.5. Google also is going after sponsored WordPress themes. Google dropped some features from Webmaster Tools. Google launched to everyone, AdWords for Video. Google is testing trusted badges on AdWords ads. Google is asking some businesses for their business license for validation of Google Places. Google launched Google Drive. Google had logos for Earth Day, St George's Day with ZX Spectrum and the anniversary of the Zipper. That was this past week at the Search Engine Roundtable.
