Update Saga. Part 5

[Brett_Tabke]

What say you?

Over and done with?

All done all through?

My local DC now shows it which is normally always one of the last to receive an update 64.233.183.104.

Now it's live, I think J3 looks a bit of a mess?!

My guess is that they will still be cleaning it up a bit, for a while yet.

A point of interest: The results at the datacentres differ slightly from the google results I'm getting, which doesn't appear to be at any of the mcdar.net/dance/ datacentres. How io I find out which datacentre I'm hitting?

Ping www.google.com

or use firefox with the "show IP" extension

I read somewhere that Google is doing great efforts to help webmasters with canonical issues. Part of that effort is that Google itself gonna decide in future which page to consider as homepage. And depending on algos, the homepage might change with time of course.
Google call it democracy among webpages :-)

Where did you read this - sticky me is probably best as link is probably against TOS unless on a trusted news source etc

Surely this happens now? - I was thinking that perhaps sitemaps might be a good idea for somewhere where you can set the root.

Firefox tells me I'm hitting 64.233.183.104 , though when I type in the IP as opposed to the domnain name, I still get slightly differing results. I'm aware that makes little sense, but it's true :).

LOL..

I read it on "Reseller's News Productions & Developements.. ONLY On WebmasterWorld" :-)

Huh? - so you are saying that it was never said - and just what you think might happen?

I can see the first traffic coming in from post-J3-DCs. Quite exciting. Maybe my site will come back after two months dupe content ban.

Keeping fingers crossed and wishing the best to all of you.
