Requesting removal of content from our index
I was going to post last week about how I felt out of place at Search Engine Strategies among all the suites, ties and high heals. Then I went to the session on robots.txt, where not only was the panel authoritative, the audience was composed of webmasters and mistresses from all over the world. A geekfest ensued as comments and feedback flowed fast and furious.
Vanessa Fox was sitting across from me and was an active participant even though she wasn't on the panel and she's a good listener as the Google Webmaster blog attests.
Danny Sullivan was the moderator/referee of the session and he too has blog post on this compelling subject.
