I'm definitely seeing major changes, not just the usual shuffling.

It looks as if they've turned down (again) the weighting given to TITLE and Hx tags. Whenever they do this it results in SERPs showing more irrelevant pages that just happen to mention the search term once or twice. That's what I'm seeing today.

This sort of change hits spammers aiming junk pages at single valuable key phrases. Unfortunately it also clobbers specific, highly relevant niche pages with spot-on content.

Which is exactly the sort of page I want to find as a user. So much for "content is king".
