If we're doing interest based stuff we're definitely going to need a killfile. In fact I'd say that it's more important than expressing interests.
We already support per-user and per-post ignoring. Why not per-interest ignoring?

So it appears that Pages that restrict visibility from the US will not get indexed in search. I just checked this using webmaster tools and things don't show up.
I doubt that's what these page owners expect...

@102583327817215270776 I know we allow webmasters to geotarget whole domains, do we allow for a way to do it on a page-by-page basis using magic markup?

IMO we need *Public* to be different from *Publicized*. There are people that want stuff to be out there, but not promoted. Give the user a choice here..
We've been through this hell many times. User thinks their audience is small. We blow it up big time:
- Google+ Shares of Youtube videos
- Photos on a Map
- next?
I've told this story many times, but when I was at hi5 we analyzed why people deleted their accounts. A big percentage were people with photos that appeared in the hi5 version of 'What's Hot'.

*This is how Googlebot fetched the page*
So my #perfcrastination with SEO got the shout out, so I guess I should tell you more... I learned a few things about driving search traffic at some startups and at LinkedIn which really mastered the practice. When Authorship was unlaunched I noticed that we did quite poorly in this area.
So I got our sites verified on Google Webmaster tools and started going through a few checklists. Bushels of low hanging fruit. Many issues have been fixed, but there are many more to go. I'm collecting resources on this sites page:
https://
And here's a cover bug that lists many of the problems found:

Also if you're interested in these issues I can add you to the webmaster tools sites. You can see what people are searching for and what your pages look like to Googlebot. And hopefully it's not like the /explore page (which is fixed in http://

*One simple trick that simplifies JS Loading!*
@103532563190745371016 has delved deep into script loading and found that it's better to just use a regular script tag to load many resources. The key is to use the async and defer attributes.
It turns out that preload scanners work better than the gobs of script-tag-injecting js code, even on older mobile browsers.
If you're targeting IE9 and above you can also use the _onload_ attribute on your script tag to trigger execution when the script is async loaded.
Work is ongoing to update our docs and existing uses in google3.

Google Health... For dogs
Just had to deal with medical records for my dog's chemo treatments. Very suboptimal. I was able to get PDFs (instead of fax) and some digital x-rays.
However to make sense of this I had to manually plug in blood test results into a sheet. Each of these data points had differing error-ranges. etc.
There's a long history of animal based science being applied to humans. If we could solve the Vet problem we could move on to Humans.....

Putting servers under a "microscope"?
At -= 2 we had a special set of prod machines called microscopes. These machines ran fully instrumented binaries with full logging and oodles of extra instrumentation.
For read-only services without side effects a small chunk of traffic was mirrored to the microscopes. For mutable requests a %age was sent there.
I don't expect we'll let engineers connect Yourkit to running production code, but I would have to expect that something like this exists, right? right?

Big anti-hangouts article from Microsoft.
_Google+ Hangouts is Google’s attempt at a Universal Communications solution, but is designed primarily for consumers rather than information workers. It relies on third-party applications for many key voice capabilities, and has other significant limitations that make it a poor choice for business. Lync, which is easy to use and easy to manage, offers the flexible yet comprehensive UC solution that both enterprises and end users need—a solution that Google can’t match._

Idea: *bandwidth meter on shuttle*
or a data based way to stop data hogs.
- Install network monitoring on the router. Use sflow or something like http://
- display results for everyone to see
- use built-in TV/video out (if available)
- or use an led sign like the one below..
Messages that could be displayed:
- Bandwidth warning 75% reduce usage.
- No 3G/4G service. Hang tight!
- Warning. Video usage @35%
- Display stats for the current ride
BW used this ride 420M
- Or even better:
BW used this ride: 56
- Or sillier:
BW use this ride: .05 milli-SWE
Of course a programmable sign could be used for other things too.
