    maybe because it's too long for them to want to display in their results? I'm not really sure.

    I assume THIS:(I'm not allowed to post links yet) search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=Myprotein is the reason .

    Titles show for my website (see sig), but that's because the way I have my site set up, I have the h1 tags around the page titles (which happen to also be my browser titles).

    Yup Geo .. That's why..

    Amaze: with MSN you can go around it.

    With Google you can't. They will just use your DMZ title and description no matter what.

    In the past day or so, I'm seeing snippets from old meta keywords tags showing up instead of either the title, description, or DMOZ data.

    Google is totally messed up therse days.
