State of Search news roundup – episode 1

Here at State of Search we are not ‘reproducing’ news, so to speak. We do not write news-articles. However, we do like to keep you up to date on what is going on in the world of Search. We therefore have set up a special News-page where you can find headlines from around the web. But we wanted to do a bit more.

Therefore starting this week we will be giving you news round ups in video- and podcast-format. To take home so to speak. In less than 10 minutes we will bring you the news from the last week(s). The frequency of the updates will depend on the amount of news and the time, but we will try to go for weekly. As time goes by we will try and improve the quality of the videos too.

Below you can find episode 1.
