On vacation...and a couple notes of interest
I'm on vacation this week, so there won't be a lot of activity on this blog. Sorry, but the beach is more fun than blogging about SEO. It doesn't look like much is going on in the world of search engine marketing, anyway--well, there's always something going on, but nothing too earth shaking so far this week.
Just a couple quick things:
I noticed that Google is displaying Google Local results when you search on certain keywords and include names of cities. They might have been doing this for a while, but I hadn't noticed until I was doing some research for this vacation. Here's an example of a search for an Oceanside California Restaurant. I'm sure there are a lot of other searches that will pull up the local results, but that's one I saw it on.
The other thing I noticed today that I found interesting was Search Engine Watch's comparison of Google News vs. Yahoo News for stories related to the Michael Jackson verdict. Yahoo's human-powered news search came out on top on this one.
That's all for today. I've got some waves to catch. Laters dudes.
