Rich Baxter lays the smackdown on non-best practices in URL canonicalization by Matt Cutts. Yes, I did just use 'lay the smackdown' and 'url canonicalization' in a single sentence.

Heh! He's fixed it - without a comment (of course) on how impactful this issue really is to your Google SERPS, merely a "guinea pig" response! Note to self. Try harder next time! Get algo questions answered by Googlers!

That's a fine reason to Sphinn.

I'm still seeing the issue in SERPs, and I see no evidence of changes when navigating to either link. ;-)

Matt has done a lot of experimentation with his domain regarding which URLs do and do not get indexed.

Nice catch but I'm desphinning this because the story isn't all that interesting to me, what's more interesting is some well-known SEO blogs have no www to non-www redirect set up.
