        @mattcutts does that suggest that 0.3% of the content on the web has ( in Googles opine) been link spammed!?

        @robwatts also remember, that's ~0.3% of queries affected. % of web results is smaller, since there's usually 10 results for a query.

        @malcolmcoles it is a blog post from April, but that was the blog post that we announced what came to be known as Penguin. It's for context.

        @jbutcherseo that's the blog post that announced Penguin. I linked to it to provide context for people who didn't know about the algo.

        @mattcutts appreciate the advance warning, but out of interest would love a breakdown of how google calculates % of affected queries
