Webmasterworld Moderator Ian Turner has been found alive and well in Atlanta. Ian had not returned home after the SEO conference held in New Orleans last week, causing great concern to his wife and everyone who knew him within the SEO community. This resulted in a widespread appeal across the internet for help.
The marketing community pulled together to get the news out across the internet, resulting in some unusual events. On the popular website technorati, the search term ‘Ian Turner’ topped their chart. There were more searches for Ian Turner than for the Live8 event.

The reasons for Ian’s dissappearance are still unknown, even to his wife Ali. A week is a long time to go AWOL and as Jill Whalen remarked, “Whatever Ali does from here is totally justified!”
