I haven’t been writing as much as I would like to on my SEO blog, here… but a lot of other things have been keeping me busy.

I’m actually writing this from Seoul, South Korea because I was skimming through my RSS feeds and I felt like I had to write real quick to say that you should check out Adam Moro’s site and read his blog. He is a close friend of mine and has recently taken the leap to the independent consulting life, thus being able to spend more time online than he has before… which I didn’t think was possible.

I’ve had my Twitter account for about a year, now, but I didn’t really “get it” at first - mostly because there weren’t very many tweeps (twitter/peeps) on there that I cared to tweet to, or with. It wasn’t until November that I saw more and more tweeps that I knew, thus Twitter became a staple in my ever-growing social media disorder.

I just went in to add a listing to Google Local today and, instead of seeing the normal page, apparently Google is working on things and I was presented with this page:

It reads:

The Google Local Business Center is unavailable for the next hour

We appreciate your patience as we perform some routine system maintenance.

It seems like there’s been more and more talk about domaining going on around the SEO-sphere, lately. I know that I’ve been buying more and more domains, in recent months.

I’ve always been a big fan of the Ask3D SERP UI. It looks as though Google is testing a layout along those lines…

Danny Sullivan wrote about AdWords + Video, last month, with a mockup of what it might look like, but this layout is a bit different. My good friend and fellow SEO consultant, Adam Moro, spotted a results page with three video results appearing under the AdWords ads in the right column… So, they’re not AdWords video ads, but they are actual Google “Universal” video results… appearing more along the lines of Ask3D.
