Re: Recent Yahoo SE update
One thing I noticed, Yahoo is definitely ranking IDN.jp sites higher than the same IDN.com, even if the content is much weaker.

I made a test:

On the .com - 4 pages of original content
On the .jp - 1 page which contains a few paragraphs copied verbatim from the wikipedia page

The .jp is ranking at spot 16, the .com is somewhere around 50.

Next test will be to switch the content, where I put the original 4 page content on the .jp and see if it can make the front page.

Still, adsense is pretty much mirroring ND - the .com clicks are worth 4 times that of the .jp clicks.
