Site Links Updated - October 26th, 2007

Last Friday I wrote about Google Site Links. And since then they have changed it to a new version. For example, our own site links used to look like this:

Old site links

And now look like this:

New site links

So now you can have more site links, which of course means there are more possible chances that people will visit your site, which is always a good thing.

Google Helping to Tackle Wildfires in California - October 25th, 2007

Is there anything Google can’t do? Over the past few days Google Maps and Google Earth have been helping to collate images and news about the current wildfires tearing across Southern California.

Created by radio station KPBS, there is a live map of the California wildfires showing burn zones, evacuation zones, locations of safe areas and much more. There are also pictures of the area and constant Twitter updates to keep people completely up to date with what’s going on.

This kind of accessible up-to-the-minute reporting is something that particularly helps people in the Southern California area, and is something that would arguably not have been available just a few years ago.

It’s a great example of ‘Web 2.0′ in action and how much the internet and delivery of information has progressed in recent times.
