"It was an incredibly busy month in the Google SEO/Webmaster world.  Besides for Google announcing the spam algorithm, explaining about Panda's slower rollouts, releasing a new mobile ranking factor and pushing out a multi-week update, we've also seen a ton of chatter around a few updates in the past 30 days.In fact, with this multi-week update, all the Google volatility tools are lighting up over the past few days.  Here are screen shots from them:Mozcast has been really hot for the past several days, which is not the norm:SERPs.com is showing more volatility than normal over the past days:SERP Metrics also is warmer than the average day recently:A new tracker, Algoroo, also shows hot patterns recently:But the main thing is that the ongoing WebmasterWorld thread does indeed have chatter.  It is holiday weekend and pre-holiday weekend chatter but nevertheless, SEOs and webmasters feel something is going on.  One webmaster said:There's definitely a lot of flux, and it's in the head terms. We're seeing a significant amount of one to three position drops. Luckily visits and sales are mostly unaffected, thanks to long-tails.So maybe that multi-week update has settled down as promised.  I just wish Google would tell us more about it.For the rest of the more important topics over the past 30 days:Google Algorithms:\r\nGoogle Spam Algorithm For Spammy Queries: Pay Day Loans+\r\nGoogle's Matt Cutts: Multi-Week Update Rolling Out\r\nMozCast Shows Huge Google Update But SEOs Don't Agree\r\nGoogle Search May Be Updating...\r\nA Google Update Kicking Into Gear Now?\r\nGoogle Takes Stance On Mobile SEO: Site Not Mobile Friendly, You Won't Rank Well.\r\nMatt Cutts: Google Panda Updated Monthly But Slowly Rolled Out\r\n\r\nGoogle SEO:\r\nSearch Spammers Admit Defeat After Spam Algorithm But Vow To Return\r\nBlack Hats Mock Google's Matt Cutts With Payday Loan Hack\r\nMatt Cutts: Stock Images Currently Don't Impact Rankings But We'll Look Into It\r\n\r\nGoogle Webmaster Tools\r\nGoogle Webmaster Tools Cleans Up Navigation &amp; More\r\nScreen Shots Of The New Google Webmaster Tools Structured Data Error Report\r\nExample URLs Now In Google Webmaster Tools Notifications\r\n\r\nLinks &amp; Disavow:\r\nGoogle Language Change: Content That Gets Used &amp; Shared, Not Linked To.\r\nGoogle's Matt Cutts: Disavow Can Help With Penguin\r\nCan You Test The Google Disavow Tool?\r\nGoogle's Matt Cutts: Wildcard Support Not Planned For Google Disavow Tool\r\nGoogle Links Reconsideration Request FAQs\r\nGoogle's Matt Cutts On Disavow Tool Mistakes\r\n\r\nUser Interface:\r\nTen Google Sitelinks For Domain Searches\r\nGoogle News Cards: New Google News OneBox\r\nGoogle Removes \"Quick View\" Option In Mobile ResultsIf you missed last month's recap, read the June 2013 Google Webmaster Report.Forum discussion at WebmasterWorld."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
