A Visit to Google Kirkland
The author's views are entirely their own (excluding the unlikely event of hypnosis) and may not always reflect the views of Moz.
Danny Sullivan was in town over the weekend and on Saturday night, Vanessa Fox from Sitemaps invited Mystery Guest and me over to Google's Kirkland offices. We had a ton of fun and got to meet some new (and very friendly) Googlers. Just a few photos:

The final list included the first 9 from me and 10-13 from Danny:
- Re-institute accurate "link:" command
- Add action tracking to Google Analytics
- Dis-mantle new Google-bomb protection algo
- New logo for Groundhog day
- Add true PageRank data to Sitemaps console
- Ban Digg.com from index (just to mess with Rose's head)
- Make results numbers precise(ish)
- Remove PageRank from the toolbar
- Change anchor text for title use to use any random anchor text
- Make site: command show all subdomains once again
- Ban SERoundtable.com just to mess with Barry's head
- Frame all Wikipedia links so clickthrough shows page with AdSense alongside
- Onebox to show alternative porn listings for any search

Thanks a ton, Vanessa and crew. Let me know when I can return the favor at SEOmoz :)
