Crawling December: CDNs and crawling  |  Google Search Central Blog  |  Google for Developers Tuesday, December 24, 2024

This is one of the most valuable pieces of content I have read on CDNs for SEOs.   

A great starting point if you're unsure what a CDN is and a really handy reminder/primer if you want to double-check your knowledge: https://buff.ly/3DvIeRM

A street is orange from flames and you can see the high winds in the palm trees. Sparks fly down the street

A fire truck is engulfed in parks and flames are seen on the hill. The entire photo is red and orange from the fire

A fireman with a hose runs across the front of a house in flames in the background

The inside of a house is a ball of flames. The only visible thing inside is a burning Christmas tree

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer.

These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP.

Did you know ... you can parse a Google Doc as HTML, extract the URLs, manipulate the URLs to have Google resize & recompress the images, download them and upload them to Bluesky with Apps Script? (Did you need to know? Probably not, but unreading is heard, haha.)

Tesla has laid off US workers and replaced them with foreign workers on H-1B visas. Many of those US workers were more senior with higher compensation and replaced with junior foreign workers for lower comp.

But that's not even the bigger problem.

With the new reasoning models, there is increasing value in coming up with good questions. That reminded me of an old short scifi story about a future where coming up with new PhD ideas in a world of AI was hard

I couldn't remember the name for the last year. Only Gemini Deep Research found it.

Thanks for all you do for the community, Barry!

Moving @bsky.app app to my homescreen today!

This is an excellent post around crawling!

Fascinating insights from the latest @randfish.bsky.social research about how people use Google (from a 332M queries analysis over 21 months). Top takeaways:

Ahhh yes, no disinformation on my feed...yet.

Hoping this can endure.
