Interesting corporate spin, hundreds of people have been complaining about not getting the .me name they wanted.
Most of the complaints centered around the pre registration of most of the best domain names by domain.me
If this is a success, what do they define as a failure?

in Real or Fake PageRank Update In Progress (round 3) on Andy Beard - Internet Business Systems Discussion
This reminds me of 2001 monthly Google updates. Florida and Jagger come to mind. There is nothing to do but wait until things update, although it is more fun to speculate and share meaningful information.

Yes it's reminiscent of those wmw threads of old where you'd see your green oscillate between various states and have a mini heart attack when it went grey!
You'd think we'd have seen some kind of clarification or statement by now, even if its just the usual pronouncement from Mr C saying we've done this and that and you'd better do as we tell you, or else.

in Penalty Confirmed – But I Don't Sell PageRank on Andy Beard - Internet Business Systems Discussion
Andy, I think the penalty may have more to do with the sites you are "sponsoring" by not nofollowing your comment tags. Other prominent bloggers have reinstituted nofollow in their comments following unsatisfactory ranking issues.
I love blogs without nofollow - but Google sees things differently.

Over the months I provided all the information people needed to ensure they limited the amount of juice that might flow out of one specific post before the juice had time to benefit other pages.
Juice is meant to flow, and you can channel it around, and I do that actively.
This is a manual penalty, it is nothing to do with Nofollow on comments, and this blog has had nofollow removed on comments since it was launched.
I am sure if I added nofollow back, I would be able to benefot more from recursive calculations, but then I wouldn't necessarily receive as many great comments, or links.
It is possible and even quite likely that the only hit I have received is in the TBPR that is displayed.
I can imagine other blogs adding nofollow back to their comments, especially those with little conviction as to why they were doing it, or those who though they would gain major SEO benefit from doing it.
There are major benefits, but if your content doesn't stimulate conversation - real meaty conversation, it then becomes a potential liability you either live with, or switch off.

in Blogging Full Disclosure Debacle – Grow Some Brass Ones on Andy Beard - Internet Business Systems Discussion
Any group receiving anything of value must disclose this fact. Here is an example from a nonprofit law center. Imagine if you just gave $1000 to charity and they neglected to disclose that they were buying the executives new plasma TVs latimes.com/news/local/orange/la-me-offices3jun03,1,5391459.story

I had to make the link to the LA Times unclickable, because a while ago I unearthed that they don't allow deep linking in their terms of service.

Isn't that amazing - it must have been delayed a little to coincide with the release of Vista ;)
The stupid thing is there are so many ways for a professional SEO to build up their links just blogging with useful professional advise, they shouldn't need to spam links to ruin their reputation.
The problem is now that anyone who looks up the guys name in Google will most likely find this post in the first page of results.
Maybe I should also tag it slightly more so I have a few more potential landing pages.
