The week is the new weekend, guys. Backspace is taking the rear seat today, so we'll just let that stand. Like everyone else, we're about to call it a year, but lets look at some current affairs in the cross section of design and tech first.
Tech of the week
- Google keeps talking about loading speed thresholds that supposedly influence the SEO algorithms. SpeedCurve kind of debunks this, claiming speed has little or no consequence.
- On the topic of SEO, Google is struggling with a new scheme known as "SEO heists", a method for cloning sites entirely in order to steal it's SEO deliciousness (paid).
- Meta has an interesting deep dive in the infrastructural engineering behind Threads. Just the shear volume this service garnered over such a short time naturally posed some challenges.
