Determining Spam, WordPress Templates and Idomatic Design Patterns – Monday December 14th Roundup

Google launched real-time search this week, Chrome released the extensions marketplace (which rocks), but hey everyone is talking about that, right? Let’s look at something else.

This week we have Huo Mah ranting on SEO’s knowledge of Search Engines, BP Wrap on how email is determined to be spam, WordPress template development hints, and IBM on how to harvest idiomatic patterns in design.
