In case you missed it, WebProNews streamed a live interview with Google's Matt Cutts today from SMX West in Santa Clara. It's hard to narrow down the discussion to a singular topic, but here are some of the things touched upon in the video:

- The status of Google's Caffeine update (nothing's wrong, they're just being careful.)

- Site Speed as a ranking factor - settle down, it's not replacing relevance (and it's independent from Caffeine)

- PageRank - Google's probably not going to rename it, but people do obsess too much over it.

- PuSH - indexing much of the web in real-time

- Coming up with metrics for authority in real-time search

- Google Buzz - Why Matt Cutts likes it, but still uses Twitter as well

- Why does every product that comes out have to be the killer of an existing product?

- SEO vs. social media marketing

- NCAA Basketball and the Kentucky Wildcats

After discussing the above topics, Matt and interviewer Mike McDonald turn to Twitter for audience questions for Matt to answer.
