Yesterday, I was jolted when I suddenly discovered these grey and green bars next to the Google local search results. I clicked on impulse and was immediately taken to my skype client to make the call. My immediate reaction was, “Oh, then I have to pay, and here I was thinking I would make a call at Google's expense.”For a long time, Google has been experimenting with the...
First full disclosure: I am an SEO who happens to enjoy Flash programming. I am aware of all the headaches and hurdles it can bring and understand that it is not to be used all the time or even for any website.
