    The pay-per-post thing is definitely one of those “slippery slope” issues. But, I can understand not wanting Google to get the wrong idea.

    Just so long as they don’t get so far down the slope that they start judging based on grammar and sentence structure. Then, I’ll be worried.

    That PPP decision is an interesting one. Probably good, but such a complicated question. Thanks for posting about that.

    Happy to do it. Cool idea! And I’m looking forward to making it to a gathering soon.
