We thought this one was already a closed case, but apparently the question of META tags still gets asked to Google engineers frequently.

Again, no thunder bolts of lightning here, but nice to hear that Google’s hands know what the others are doing. And another nail in the coffin for META keywords, MSN notwithstanding…
