There's clear protocols set. The page <title> is supposed to be the anchor text. Google thinks they know better, and expects everybody to adapt.

- cheald 13y agoPerhaps you missed the memo, but people have been adapting to Google for quite a while now. Google's obviously attempting to give a bit more context to link titles when they think that the link comes from a publication. Your "Back" link goes to the root of your site, which is overwhelmingly used as a "home" link that is very frequently semantically given the title of the publication. That's cool with me - trying to make their results more usable is great. I think it's a little silly to be upset with Google doing something with their index that they feel might help their users.
