G is for Google

So if you haven't heard already - Larry Page released a statement regarding the newly founded company: Alphabet.
Crazy to think that the name hadn't even been used before for one but most importantly throughout his write up - there doesn't seem to be much clarity on what it is going to accomplish.
What are your ideas/thoughts moz heads?

Sounds to me it's more like a PR thing + a organisational restructure to get business wise not in trouble with laws etc.

As people say,
"Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin have never been known for thinking small."
So, let's see and enjoy... Expecting to see some interesting developments in upcoming months.

Interesting, it sounds like more of a way to control brin... and give some accountability to their rogues ideas... like google glass.. which was alot of hype and an unmitigated pr disaster. Larry.. "We liked the name Alphabet because it means a collection of letters that represent language, one of humanity's most important innovations, and is the core of how we index with Google search!" Page said. "We also like that it means alpha- bet (Alpha is investment return above benchmark), which we strive for!"

Why rich snippets have disappeared in Google search results ?
Hello, Few weeks ago, we have implemented a snippets strategy in order to increase our ranking for our blog posts. That was successful and our results were showing up in Google. But today, every single snippet has disappeared. We go back to a simple search result, without snippets for us or for our competitors. It seems that Google has delete rich snippet for specific keywords because for the generic keywords (for exemple "inbound marketing definition" in our case), there is still a snippet result. Do you know if Google has changed snippets parameters for keywords with low search volume ? Thank you !

Google crawled "Cross Domain" links. Is this an issue? if yes then how we can remove it?
We have two sites. One site for US (site.com)and another is for India(site.co.in). Redirection is working based on ip address and location.So if I write US(site.com) site link in India location then it will automatically redirect to India site(site.co.in). We have given a link in the header of the site which will be used to open another country site. Example : Currently India site open in my browser so it contain US site link. and US site open in my browser so it contain India site link. We check on google web master and we found back links of cross domains so Is it an issue?
