Keeping Up with Google's Changes
With Google having such a leading position in the search engine world and so many webmasters looking to Google for traffic, you might guess that there's a lot of discussion about Google in various places around the Web. And you'd be right! My favorite place for Google news and gossip is Webmaster World (http://www.webmasterworld.com). It's not often that the terms civilized and online forums go together, but they do in this case. Discourse on this site is friendly, informative, and generally flame-free. I have learned a lot from this site.
There are also a few weblogs focused on Google and searching in general:
-
Google Weblog (http://google.blogspace.com) keeps on top of everything Google, from the newest search syntax to Google's holiday logos (http://www.google.com/holidaylogos.html).
-
Google Blog (http://www.google.com/googleblog) is the official Google weblog and features announcements, pointers, and behind-the-scenes commentary from the Googleplex.
-
John Battelle's Searchblog (http://battellemedia.com) covers search in all forms.
