  1. @OmnitureCare Thank you! Quick replies really help

  3. omg drool -- Nexus S: http://bit.ly/gamRhH
  4. @kgaelen hey there, chief. Merry christmas, @skylinechicago. That's 1 gift down. #lateshopper
  5. @dr_pete nice... although I'm disappointed in everyone else. But I guess I'll take winner by default
  6. @dr_pete I vote 123456 x 10^987654321
  7. @rustybrick wow, congrats.... I like the new look, too
  8. @ethercycle in my mind, this is somewhat related to what I was alluding to before when asking if reviews = ranking factor is really news
  9. @brianrbrown oh indeed! The wind has been a little brutal lately. And it always seems to hit hardest right when it gets legitimately cold
  10. @brianrbrown hey, how long were you down here? Do anything cool?
  11. @kgaelen yep, definitely read that. But I think it has only brought the idea of Google using reviews as ranking factors to popularity
  12. @dr_pete Google spreadsheets and xpath isn't a bad way to do it. Sometimes a pain because of serp format variations, but its > by hand
  13. BTW: http://bit.ly/ddYWjU and yes, I know this is specific to local search -- but c'mon... Reviews/Structured markup aren't new to Google
  14. Is it really news that Google is now likely using reviews as ranking signal? Because reviews have nothing to do with rich snippets </snark>
  15. May be old news, but I have absolutely seen this to be true: http://bit.ly/78gws3 Meta descriptions impact personalized search rankings
  16. @skylinechicago well when you put it that way.... I would be too lol. But at least I'm miles away
  17. @kgaelen but wouldn't twitter technically be your 24,901.55mi voice?
