A most helpful and educational update by Matt via Search Engine Journal. To me it sounds and reads like Google powers that be have made some very solid improvements to Google Search, and specifically on the mobile front. I am curious as to actually how many of these changes have or may make their way into the desktop/laptop scenario, since the internet is becoming one so to speak. I've got mixed feelings about the humming / audio element, as much as I love good music.and even hummingbirds. Ha. If you are in the field, as a journalist or media agent, and deep undercover, you don't want any additional noises to potential derail a mission. Of course, there's always the off button and the phone settings, and this update has reminded me again to further check the settings and adjust to field conditions.and the mission before embarking on the hunt. Oh, aim for your target by making use of the technology options and try to avoid friendly fire. You can't be too careful with the Internet and Matrix of Things Agent Tingle out.
