It's a public holiday where I am,
so I'm looking forward to the day off and getting outside.
Just look at the weather outside my window this morning...
Hot!
Servicemark
infringement on Google Adwords and Overture , new
search
appliance from Thunderstone claims to "outperform
others by 10 times". Can't possibly think who the
"others" are...
Danny Sullivan looks to put
an end to the cloaking debate. Of all commentators,
Danny is the closest to the truth on cloaking, IMHO.
And finally, Plum
Crazy - Home of the centre wing conspiracy.

Will Overture
raise their minimum bid prices shortly?
Overture secure
two year deal with espn.com. Interesting quote "For
(overture) this is another direct win against Google".
We saw glimpses of it this week -
Yahoo to provide ad boxes (supplied by Overture) on
the right hand side of search results. Analysts
applaud, especially those holding OV stock.
Welcome to Dave of IRL ;). You're
famous now.
Try as we might, we cannot get this
song out of our heads. "Running through my
head....". Catchy.
Ralph responds to Christina on the
topic of SEO
Ethics: Hype & Hypocrisy.
Finally, shuttle
canna change the laws of physics.

Search engines really do get it in
the neck sometimes. First there is SK with Google, now
there's a schoolboy who has been suspended for telling
AskJeeves exactly what he thinks of them.
Ye olde cloaking debates sprung up again last week.
Some feel that instances of cloaking aren't really cloaking,
while others maintain that cloaking has always been
cloaking, irrespective of what some pundits are now
trying to call it. Confused? You soon will be. Here's
a good debate on same - unfortunately some other
fine debates on this topic went on behind closed doors.
Those of you who use Mailwasher
can download a comprehensive
set of filters. New beta version available too.
Finally, patron
saint of the internet required.

Today our guest
in the interview chair is Chris Ridings. Chris is
the author of "Page Rank Uncovered", and is
a regular commentator on all things SEO.
Whoa! This site got in an interview
with Fast before we did. A fine read.
A few interesting threads over at WMW that SEOs should
know about - "Google
ditches image alt tag" and "Spiders
out in force" and Brett's excellent "Cloaking
has come full circle". Elsewhere, Doug Heil
takes the novel approach
of suggesting Danny Sullivan "don't know what the
difference is" with regard to cloaking. Whatever
next?
Our spell checker suggests "cease" for "SEOs".
Some search engines might get a laugh out of that.
Finally, Mac
vs Windows. Who cares?
