Matt was quite specific when hinting that they may have been working on different CSS Spam detection algs:

Quote:
“If you If you’re straight-out using CSS to hide text, don’t be surprised if that is called spam. I’m not saying that mouseovers or DHTML text or have-a-logo-but-also-have-text is spam; I answered that last one at a conference when I said “imagine how it would look to a visitor, a competitor, or someone checking out a spam report. If you show your company’s name and it’s Expo Markers instead of an Expo Markers logo, you should be fine. If the text you decide to show is ‘Expo Markers cheap online discount buy online Expo Markers sale …’ then I would be more cautious, because that can look bad.”
Now that I look back, my Jagger casualty Site has several points that may be collateral damage in a Google CSS Spam filtering scenario. There is nothing hidden anywhere, but let’s take for example: same sized font in consecutive header tags.
