Marcus Tander - aka Mediaadonis - has discovered a way to check if your site has been penalized or banned in Google. How long this flaw in the system will remain open one cannot tell, but it is working right now.
All you have to do is add hyves as a subdomain to the front of your domain. Hyves.yourdomain.com would be what you put into the browser. Apparently it is not working in some locations so I think it must be a glitch in just some data centers.
As Marcus states in his article it may not last too long so try it while you can. Thanks mate for the tip. See you at London SES. Those Europeans are fast.
UPDATE: Seems Google is fast too… they have been closing it off in the data centers so may not work for everyone - or anyone by now. Pity - transparency is a good thing.
