Update: Snapshot 14w20b has been released to fix mobs not spawning naturally. They may or may not have been spawning unnaturally in 14w20a, and that's just creepy.
This weeks snapshot brings many bugfixes, a little polishing and possibly even some hugs. Check here for hug updates!
CHANGELOG:
Caves now generate in deserts & mesas.
Added new /title command for ingame adventure-map chaptering.
Made tab-list more consistent and a little prettier when using health display objective.
Adjusting fly speed of spectator mode now works vertically too.
If you’re stuck outside the world border, you can now walk freely to go back inside.
Bunch of bugs fixed!
Removed the 4th dimension from blocks. Incidentally, this may or may not coincide with the aforementioned unnatural spawning.
BUGFIXES
[Bug MC-8881] – Mobs treat any layered snow as non-solid
[Bug MC-26203] – Scoreboard: player does not appear in sidebar after setting initial score to zero
[Bug MC-44331] – Interacting with invalid villagers crashes the game
[Bug MC-45303] – Surface dungeons generating without spawner, chests, and most of floor
[Bug MC-46765] – Leaves, Block of Redstone, TNT and Glowstone cause suffocation damage
Please report any and all bugs you find in Minecraft to bugs.mojang.com. If nobody reports a bug, kittens will cry!
To get snapshots, open your launcher and press the “New Profile” button. Call it “snapshots” and check the box saying “Enable experimental development snapshots” and save. To switch to the normal version, you can select it in the dropdown at the bottom left corner of the launcher. Back up your world first or run the game on in a different folder (See the “new profile” dialog).
Snapshots can corrupt your world, please backup and/or run them in a different folder from your main worlds.

Wellp, I was a little disappointed when the change to caves turned out to be so... mundane... I was just thinking an awesome thing to add would be cooler caves, butnope. Iamsadnow.
Sacheverell is Zeus. O_o Also, something new for lightning. (Wahh, not zombie pigman related!)
EDIT: He was doing dumb article titles to see who is paying attention.
And removing time from blocks? What? Will that break pistons and crop growing, plus fire?
I would rather see a thousand snapshots than bugs delivered in 1.8
I agree, it its much better for Mojang to take their time when releasing big updates so they can fix the annoying bugs before the millions of people who play Minecraft all start raging over them. Hopefully releasing these snapshots ahead of time will make the actual update less buggy and better quality.
And why piston and beacon's textures are still glitched in inventory? Why do they not fix the most obvious bug?
Sometimes it's not as easy as all of that. I'm sure they're aware the bug exists, but the current way for them to fix it could be causing issues elsewhere, you never know. Better some glitched textures than a completely unworking game.

I think this is awesome and I also saw when my MineCraft was starting yesterday it said "Secret Friday Update" Does this mean 1.8 is coming out today? If you have also seen this I suggest you keep replying.. -Jordan

Every time I see a snapshot with one or two tiny changes, I am disappointed... and then I scroll down to the crapton of bugfixes. I know it can take a day (or more )for one person to fix a bug, so I personally am happy with both their pace and focus in their updates.

Secret Friday Updates were ten weekly updates made on 2010. This has nothing to do with 1.8.

Or it could be a hint that lightning will be able to do some new secret thing.

Not even remotely possible seeing there are only 52/53 weeks in a year.
So after 14w53(?) we'd get 15w01a.
Because why wouldn't they want to break all the farm ya know. Think about it, let's make so no plants can grow! Now think of what would happen.
