    Hey there,

    I found some interesting google documentation on getting the title and description changed.

    http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35264

    Apparently, google sometimes pulls this information from the dmoz directory.

    Placing "noodp" in your robots meta tag prevents this. So you could have something like...

    <meta name="robots" content="NOODP, INDEX, FOLLOW" />

    For my real estate website, it was annoying that it was always using the phone number in the upper left-hand corner as the description.

    I am hoping this will fix the problem. Does anybody have any experiencing using this technique?

    Sincerely,
    Travis Walters
