    Penguin 2.0 rolled out today
    by Matt Cutts
    23 May 2013 at 12:34am
    We started rolling out the next generation of the Penguin webspam algorithm this afternoon (May 22, 2013), and the rollout is now complete. About 2.3% of English-US queries are affected to the degree that a regular user might notice. The change has also finished rolling out for other languages world-wide.

    What to expect in SEO in the coming months
    by Matt Cutts
    13 May 2013 at 4:17pm
    We just recently taped a new round of webmaster videos, and I thought this video deserved a full-fledged blog post. This is my rough estimate (as of early May 2013) of what search engine optimizers (SEOs) and webmasters should expect in the next few months: Bear in mind that this is a very rough estimate, [...]

    Email backlog
    by Matt Cutts
    13 May 2013 at 6:59am
    This is a “hairball” post you can ignore. However, this post does trace my thinking about how to scale webmaster communication. Part of me wants to start answering questions I get via email by stripping out the identifying information and then replying with a blog post. Instead of one person getting a single reply, everybody [...]

    13 May 2013 at 6:58am
    A quick “hairball” post about how sometimes it’s better to just go with the flow. I like how xkcd made this point with a chart of whether it’s worth the time to fix something that’s bugging you. I have a friend who is mechanical engineer. A few years ago he took me for a tour [...]

    My wife keeps me grounded
    by Matt Cutts
    13 May 2013 at 6:51am
    This is a harmless “hairball” post I had as a draft. Me: Hey, they added me to popurls.com! My wife: Never heard of it. (pause) Had you heard of it before? Me: Yeah. Wife: Really? Me: Yeah! Wife: (with an extra helping of sarcasm) Really? Me: Yes! Wife: (dripping with condescension) You’re a very important [...]

    Playing with a USB Missile Launcher

    13 May 2013 at 6:45am
    This is the last half-finished “hairball” blog post about USB devices on Linux. I actually did manage to get a working program that controlled a USB foam missile launcher. Unfortunately, I didn’t document all the steps, so this blog post just sort of stops at some point. I got a USB Missile Launcher for Christmas. [...]

    What, *another* half-finished blog post about Linux USB drivers? Yup. Suppose you have a device and want a Linux device driver for it. There are a few steps you’ll need to take. One of the heroes in this area is Greg Kroah-Hartman. Greg wrote USBView, which is a Linux tool to enumerate a list of [...]

    Compile a simple USB program in Linux
    by Matt Cutts
    13 May 2013 at 6:39am
    Here’s another “hairball” post about USB devices and drivers on Linux. I wish some expert would write the definitive “here’s how to reverse-engineer a USB device and write a new USB driver” guide. I am definitely not that expert. Once you reverse engineer a Windows USB device enough to know how it works, you’re ready [...]

    For a while, I was really into reverse-engineering USB drivers. Don’t ask why. The heart wants what the heart wants. I didn’t finish this “hairball” post, but it has some info in it that still might be good. I recently stumbled across this post and it inspired me. I decided to try to reverse engineer [...]

    Example debunk post
    by Matt Cutts
    13 May 2013 at 5:55am
    Over the years I’ve written a lot of blog posts to debunk misconceptions or claims that weren’t true. Sometimes I publish the blogs posts but often I don’t. This is a pretty typical example post. Someone claimed that Google was evil for removing a particular domain, when in fact the domain had been removed from [...]
