This week at the Search Engine Roundtable, we think Google has been rolling out a pretty major update - we are waiting on confirmation. Google launched a tool named data highlighter to help novice webmasters create rich snippet structured data markup. Google's John Mueller received advice from his daughter to stop using links. Google changed the way it lets you search for pornography. Blocking sites in Google no longer works. Google AdSense now shows a warning for delayed reporting. Google finally released their Maps app for iPhone and it rocks. I went to the Google Zeitgeist holiday part in NYC. Google has decorations for Chanukah and also for Festivus. I made a animated GIF of Matt Cutts doing a face palm. Finally, you may want to check out an interview I did with Dr. Pete on the Google algorithm. That was this week at the Search Engine Roundtable.
