Let’s Be Honest About Google…
Finding good journalism in search is harder than ever. AI Overviews and Google’s obsession with keeping users on its results pages have crushed independent publishers.
That’s why we do what we do. We celebrate the written word, quality reporting, and only share the best content inside The I/O Newsletter.
And if you use Facebook, you can follow us here.
