Microsoft cleaning house

This is definitely a shock to read. I can think of quite a few companies that this will be hurting. It will be interesting to see how this pans out.

pretty good news from some guys :)

So January 1st, fire up the bots.

It will be nice until every black hat guy out there starts hitting it like a dirty shirt (along side the mass of normal webmasters submitting).

Will be a load of crap soon I'm sure.
