Great summary of all the published stuff. I just don’t understand why did you put up the Econsultancy posts up there. They added no new or significant data to the discussion nor did they show any original or for that matter, logical reasoning about the causes and effects of this update.

Totally agree, I was hoping that the eConsultancy three part series was going to clear up all the confusion but it did none of that.

Your post is much more useful, some of these posts you link to I had missed.

Thanks.

Really interesting post – you’ve tied up loads of loose ends for me about what was going on in Twitter! Am ashamed to say I couldn’t work out what the UK serps thing was all about so this a fantastic summary – thanks for writing it.

Was also interesting to see how the story unfolded via different bloggers’ analysis.

What amazes me tho is how feeblt Matt Cutt’s response is to the lobbying! (tho am equally impressed he actually responded via video) In all examples it seems UK serps are suffering from irrelevance and Google certainly hasn’t found better .com results to serve.

Cheers Jonny, I agree with Richard – I think it’s really good to have all of this discussion in one place as I think some people may have missed the significance of what Chewy said to Patrick Altoft. (My Google glitch link goes to the icrossing post though – cheers though! )

Nicely written, Jonny! Particulary appreciate (as will some of the other authors mentioned in this post) that you’re giving the correct attribution in a very “timeline” oriented way. Sphunn.
