hmm. I've been calling for a naming of this "Universal Update" :cough: for 3 weeks now.

Saw a nice news report on BBC today explaining how Goog (and the others) had better get their "universal search"/web 2.0 results together and more accurately display what searchers are really looking for.

And guess what, that's what they're trying to do.
Unfortunately, Goog has a nasty habit of being in perpetual "beta" and rolling out their testing to everyone.

Long story short - Goog knows Web2.0 will eventually take Goog market share so it's trying it's darnedest to implement Universal Search ASAP to keep up. As always, those changes have interesting side effects.
