Here’s a great video interview by WebProNews with Nathan Buggia from Live Search’s Webmaster Tools.

Nathan, Jeremiah and the lads presented at SES San Jose on the latest release of their suite of gizmos to help webmasters figure out what is and what is not getting indexed by Live Search.

The session was a bit sparsley populated with delegates. 🙁

Ironic seeing as how many people tell us they want us to get better and be a driving force in search! 🙂

So if you missed it you can check out the presentation on the Live Webmaster Blog.

The Microsoft campus in Redmond is pretty green.

Toyota Prius ferry you around from building to building and the cafe has bio-degradable cutlery as well as multiple receptacles for re-cycling bottles, cans, food etc.

Today I spotted this sign as I queued for my “iced black americano no whip!”.

They’re now giving away the used coffee grounds from the thousands of cups the make everyday to the green-fingered amongst us.

Wonder if I’ll get ’em through UK customs!

Just chatting to Dan about my Media Week post about not having nothing to say some days!

This is the view from the office I’m in in Redmond:

Can’t see the wind through the trees right now but expect some more content on the Media Week and adCenter Blog soon!

In the meantime here’s another pic of me and Dixon at PubCon in Las Vegas in 2006.

Not often I’m right about music but I did tip this the Irish band – The Script – back in April!

Their debut album just went straight in at Number 1. I have it and it’s fabulous!
