We also talked about the Yahoo Title issue that is now resolved. Yahoo! Search Marketing's Panama is coming this Monday.

FYI - Matt Cutts did agree to come on the show to discuss the Googlebomb bit, but there was a miscommunication on timing. 5PM was the time, but EST vs PST was the issue. My fault, hope to get him on soon.

See you next week for the 17th edition!
