The Google search bar is a staple of Android phones, so when I got my S26, I never really questioned it. I could open apps without digging through the app drawer, run quick web searches, and even jump into Google Lens when needed. But once I swapped it out for Samsung’s Finder, I realized how much I’d been missing. Finder doesn’t limit me to just apps and web searches. I can look up content inside apps, pull up contacts, jump straight into settings, and even find documents directly. Having used it for a week, it’s hard to believe this isn’t…

Key Takeaways Backlinks are links from other websites to yours, and they still matter because they help search engines evaluate how authoritative and trustworthy your site is. Not all backlinks are equal. A few relevant, high-quality links from authoritative sites are usually more valuable than many weak or spammy ones. Backlinks support AI visibility because generative engines and language models favor content from authoritative, trustworthy sources, and backlinks are one of the clearest signals of that authority.

For well over a decade, SEOs and marketers have debated the importance of high-quality, original content. After just about every major update, the message from Google was clear: If you want to rank, cut it out with the derivative listicles and other quick-churn assets that are big on keywords and light on substance. More recently, our current understanding of how LLMs select which sources to cite in responses has SEOs and content marketers championing high-quality, original, and in-depth content with renewed fervor. If you want AI to identify your content as the best source with which to answer a user’s…
The first time I interviewed John Ternus was a decade ago to discuss the new MacBook. Like the MacBook Neo before it, this tiny, 12-inch, 2-lb laptop was a departure for Apple. It was packed with unusual and innovative design decisions, and John Ternus, who will step in as Apple’s CEO in September, was anxious to talk about it.By then, Ternus had already been at Apple for 15 years and was heading up Mac and iPad hardware. He struck me as smart, affable, and, with some quick wit.Thinking back to that meeting, and subsequent chats, including our most recent sit-down…
