Oh, geez, is it Wednesday already?
And, conversely, is the week over yet?
- In case you weren’t sure, lying to Google is a bad idea, at least when it comes to reconsideration requests according to Matt Cutts.
- Ever wanted to build your own Reddit? Oh. Well, now you can anyway: Reddit goes open-source.
- Google Decides Books Have Consumer Intent and Puts Them Into Product Search. But are they just doing this because Microsoft did the opposite in killing its book search?
- The Yahoo exodus continues with Flickr Founders Fake & Butterfield.
- Viral video: so hard to create, so hard to make money off of. Future Now offers a great list of 3 Things Viral Videos Must Do to Make Money. And no, none of them have to do with beer (directly).

Interesting to see the link on the resubmission to Google article. Does Google have a team of people dedicated to looking at those and how many actually get back into the index?
Anyone experienced this first hand?

@PS3: to my knowledge, yes, there is a team analysing these reinclusion requests, although that’s not their only job (which is why getting a response may take ages).

Thanks for the link to viral videos. I have already seen the “will it blend” video, but i have completely forgotten it. Puts my brain into gear again, maybe something useful will come out of it.
