More broken links on Google webmaster central

How disappointing !! I don’t know if this is just with me – but these days, the number of broken links on the official google blogs/services is just increasing.And there’s no stopping it.

Soon after i had reported the broken links here(on Google history) and here on Google, here’s the latest one.

Vanessa Fox’s post about the Sitemaps.org has all the links to the new site broken!!

I really wonder if somebody is actually reading it from their side once it’s posted, how careless can they be?

Here’s is the snapshot of the broken links. While all the links point to the HTML file, there is no HTML file on the sitemaps.org site, instead PHP files!Hence the broken link.

I would recommend Google to be more careful next time, and pluuueeaasee… co ordinate between your departments before making changes. Seems like, the guy on the other end of the office is not aware, every time somebody makes a change to the site structure.

Familiar with any of these icons ?
