chatgpt atlas announcement

that's fair. just finding it interesting that it's being devalued vs travel blogger content despite clear authority for things like "things to do in [city]" with no apparent algo update.

(i saw the notification for your DM but can't reply 😂)

(i'd DM you but i don't fancy giving bsky my ID lol)

hey @johnmu.com how good is google at understanding government-funded/endorsed sites without a .gov.uk domain name? currently working with a city's official tourism board and have seen major ranking drops where they should probably have some visibility and would like to understand why

Blind people use white canes and guide dogs to get around in the physical world. In the digital world, they use zoom, magnifiers, screen readers, and Braille displays. Many of those tools rely on the code underneath. So, bad markup, means, bad experience.

You don't necessarily need to say "image of" in your alt text for users to know it's an image. Screen readers will announce that it's an image. But it can help readers to specify if it's a hand-drawn image, Polaroid, infographic, screenshot, chart, map, diagram, or so on.

I finished reading the 230-page Google antitrust remedy ruling and put together my thoughts from an industry perspective. I think a lot of the data-sharing details are critical -- moz.com/blog/google-...

Bye Bye CrUX Dashboard, I'll always be nostalgic for your stacked bars of Goodness: developer.chrome.com/blog/crux-da...

You can use tamethebots.com/tools/cwv-hi..., the cruxvis.withgoogle.com or one of the many other great free tools that use the CrUX History API.

How to stand out, when anyone can use AI to build anything?
For @antonsten.comSten, most people go for “how do we build this”, instead of asking “what should be built that people actually want?”. This leads to a situation, where, most new apps and products, solve, fake problems.

Ever wanted to try and build a search engine? Maybe, maybe not. But if you want to learn more about how search engines work and don’t have the time to try it all for yourself, Wilson has you covered.

It’s hard to really summarise the level of detail in this one, so I’d suggest you read it.

the iphone 17 looks AI generated and i can't explain why

damn, that was its one draw for me 😂 can't stand the AIO format

and it's not just "people are spending their time elsewhere".

think about *why* people are spending time, searching, and getting their info from other platforms. it's because the entire search experience has been ruined, gutted, and made anew by shiny new tech that no one actually wants.

someone help this guy do the math because he clearly can't

display ad revenue is declining

display ad revenue relies on websites getting traffic

if web traffic is thriving... surely display ad revenue would be thriving

there's only so much corporate spin people can take bro

Google’s position is now that the open web
Is thriving but open web ads are in rapid decline… because of course all the attention and money leaving a platform is irrelevant to its health lol

what does chatgpt and Big Hero Six have in common? watch the video to hear how i explain how chatgpt works to friends and family

This is so upsetting, I loved getting involved in some of Alan's wild theories and threads on here.

🚨 SEOs & Marketers: Beware that some hosting platforms are blocking AI crawlers by default without alerting website owners. I detected yesterday that this was happening with the hosting of a couple of my sites after validating that there were server connection refusal errors to AI bots...

I’m going to be mumbling “a big Dyson sphere around the solar system” to myself for days now

I didn't know this, thank you! I just got my access card approved for chronic pain so trying to remind myself that I am allowed to take up space again (have been in remission for a couple of years but it's back now 🥴)

I was talking to a friend about that actually, because if we were less determined to dance our lil hearts out in the pit we would've probs been trying for accessible tickets too. Saw that the queue was over 1000 people long 😭 there has to be a better way to distribute them!
