I am seeing more and more pages and Sites take own these new “butchered” SERP listings in last few days.

Have they lost it completely? Do they want to encourage image "alt" text spamming now? Alt text is now equal to or more important than Titles and metatag descriptions? Everything is listed in linear order, as parsed in order down page? What is relevant about several year old DMOZ Titles? Are they trying to “beef up” their Image Search prominence?

The adaptation of DMOZ anchor text title is bad enough, but alt tag heavy description is much worse. If trend continues, any page with header graphics and alt tags will have a description "leveling" across an entire Site. This will be a problem for many W3C validated Sites that have header graphics.

I certainly hope this is just a test period before an algorithm update, and it doesn’t last long.
