All datacenters are showing the same results with only some small changes but www-in shows completely different reults! It seems that in www-in are only complete new websites or websites which droped out of the index after the last update!

What does that mean for us?

yeah -in results back to normal here also which is good news for me. It seemed to punish link recip badly and today its pretty hard for small - medium commercial sites to get links which aren't recip. I really hope Google takes this on board. Webmasters just don't link to small / new / low pr sites anymore, they know it wont benefit them and are getting too smart. If Google punish recip links or don't give them any value they will stifle new webmasters and web sites developing which could lead many years down the road to there being far less sites. And a much less interesting web. And maybe enable the little man to make a few bucks :)

-in may be back to "normal" but I find it interesting that GG was asking for feedback on the serps there. Maybe a sign of things to come? I hope not.

Things are more back to normal on -in this morning, but now I see a lot of junk moving back in. Google needs to ingnore (but not penalize) all reciprocal link sites and focus only on non-reciprocal links.

The junk I am seeing this morning is from sites with significant reciprocal and cross linking. Surely, they can find some compromise filter setting? Perhaps that's what this whole -in exercize is all about until they finally move everything over to www.

-in seems to be adjusted selectively
for my 2 KWS it shows 3 hours back results and for 4 KWS it shows www results.

Strange!

I guess comparing these 2KWS with other 4 KWS could give an idea about the Filter/changes made in -in

I'm seeing the same result from -in on -kr. I personally like the new results, of course Flordia Update never did effect me, thank godness. Actually it increased my traffic by a few thousand, which was nice.

Looks like the -in datacenter is back in line with the rest now, however, it looks like -in is based on more recent data than the others (due to rankings I only have on the -in DC which are recent changes).

sites with significant reciprocal and cross linking

cross-linking definitely needs stopping but I don't agree with reciprocal linking. How does a small / new commercial site go about getting links which are not reciprocal? Dmoz maybe but there are few directories which do not require a reciprocal link.

HAHA! Google give up with the new algo in IN! IN look the same now as others!

But be prepared, if they come out something funny, it might come back again in the future, until they develope a better system!

The OOP in florida has actually happens before in June/July if you remembered. It was called semi-penalty by that time.

It looks like pages are disappearing from -IN (and most other data centers). Look at Yahoo's indexed pages, for instance:

[google.com...]

The number of Yahoo pages in Google has dropped from 21,900,000 (still shown on -DC) to 14,200,000 a couple hours ago to 14,100,000 now.

Here's what the various data centers are currently showing:

DC: 21,900,000
CW: 21,800,000
FI: 21,500,000
AB: 21,000,000
VA: 20,500,000
EX: 15,400,000
WWW: 14,100,000
WWW2: 14,100,000
WWW3: 14,100,000
IN: 14,100,000

I've seen similar drops in the number of indexed pages for every site I check.

Has anyone else noticed this?

For the first time, I see the exact same results on -in, -va, -ab, -dc, -cw, -ex, -lm, -kr, and -gv. The main index doesn't reflect them yet though. They also appear identicle to -in for my keywords.

Post Florida I was nowhere for 2 weeks for kw1 kw2.
Last week Iwas #18 in www for kw1 kw2 and nowhere to be found in -in. Now I have gone from #18 to #16 in www and am currently #15 in -in. I have yet to make any changes to my site since the Florida thing. I am taking a wait and see attitude. Of course for the key phrase, I was #1 for the past year. I am hoping this slow upward trend is a step in the right direction.

BTW - I have the key phrase which is HIGHLY competitive in the title, body and anchor text. It seem I am only being partially penalized. I wonder what would happen if I made a few adjustments. I also have around 40 recip links with a page dedicated to related links.

this is taken from the bbc site
Some critics say it's Google's way of trying to drive up ad sales.

wouldn't surprise me in the least

watching it is giving me a spinooranza, and its going to be more and more complicated with each update .. coz it just doesn't settle as it used to before .. the no. of results found also vary much from DC to DC.

feel exactly the same here. Stability would be great so I could plan long term. I seem to waste most of my time just seeing my traffic going up and down like a yo-yo. My site was stable for 2 years, but the past 6 months have been a roller coaster. I much preferred the update once a month with stable results.
