itunes-subscribe-video.pngBusy week and I am currently on vacation, actually only slept about two hours last night, so excuse the quick and quiet video. Google talked about Penguin at SES this week and I may have misquoted or taken the quotes out of context. Google's latest algorithmic penalty is based off of DMCA requests. Google might be updating as of yesterday. Google posted their search quality update with 86 changes. Google AdSense is suggesting dangerous things for publishers. Google has a new snippet for blocked pages. Google treats subdomains as internal domains in Webmaster Tools. Email delivery broke within Webmaster Tools but now works. Google killed prayer times rich snippets. Google has a new FAQ on Google+ Local Social Business pages. Google has errors with those as well. Google+ is testing vanity URLs. Google had an I'm Feeling Lucky easter egg. Google had a logo for Julia Child's 100th birthday, India's independence day and I posted all the London Olympics logos from Google on Sunday. That was this past week at the Search Engine Roundtable.
