I may not be providing this roundups the remainder of the week. I had a sudden emergency and I need to be with family during this time. I and my family are OK and well.

Google Images update, so expect some drop (only drop) in referrals from that. Split on the Yahoo Search update, that continues to happen. Google is heard in court over click fraud, this time they come armed with a independent report backing them. Google's tests a new interface and also enabled rich text on Google Base pages. SEOMoz teaches SEOs how to price campaigns, and for the rest, Yahoo pays YPNers for surveys. We also discuss link baiting, parties and a new keyword report.

Here is my coverage for the day:
