>My recent traffic patterns bring this into question.

I'm seeing some small leap away from Google already. Nothing to get excited about yet.

BUT, wait till after Christmas day, I bet you see increased referrals from MSN....all those new PC's opened on Christmas morning with MSN as the default search engine.

Then on Jan 15th another MSN jump when they drop L$ in the US....ohhh please let that happen timely & smoothly....it has been such a long wait :)

Google should have IPO'ed already, more people will be quitting their addiction to Google in the new year than quitting their other addictions.

For me, my clients websites and my websites al show major traffic from google. A bit of fall but up and downs are always there.
