A contextual search environment is emerging and SEO folks such as ourselves will need to stay on top of how search engines are refining the way that they collect and present results. The Bad news is, we’re going to have to work harder and longer. My conclusion is that this not the end of SEO but a substantial shift in how SEO is done.

I'd love to be able to tell clients and others that the best way to get search results is to post the best content and not bother with any SEO issues. I do think trickery ultimately will hurt. But it's hardly, yet, a world in which simple good practices for the users -- journalistic, informational, community even technological -- lead to the best search engine results.

The way we conduct our optimization and our goals for optimizing may change but it will remain. I could see things shifting more towards content being very heavy in importance and I don't think local search results would be that bad. If we have more local result it would make it easier for search engine users to find local businesses they might be searching for and it might make it easier to do SEO for local companies wanting to get a piece of a general search term - for example searching for "dog kennels" would return local results too.

I only ask as I've never heard of them. And having looked through their site, they look more like an advocacy group, rather than a typical professional body. Would it be possible for them to develop guidelines, recognised professional qualifications, a means of accountability and the like? Basically, until SEO is professionalised in the same way traditional jobs are, and their professional body is given teeth like most other professional associations have, the public will surely continue to be confused around SEO.
