Show Notes

Let's regroup. Erin Sparks, Mordy Oberstein and Andrew "Optimisey" Cock-Starkey hold the first EDGE of the Web SCRUM to discuss the growing concern of Google Search dominance and content aggregation overreach. Is Google taking too much of our own content for its uses? Where do we, as content providers, stand when it comes to our goals of visits to our websites as opposed to data purveyors to Google? Is there a Plan "B"? Welcome to the SCRUM!
