I am not sure if this just happened, but I am not noticing any fresh tags today on google.

I know last week they were still showing, but I did a variety of searches and did not see any site with a fresh tag.

I noticed the same thing today. I believe that the fresh tags were there yesterday.

Is there an update on it's way?

Only thing I noticed is that I've had no googlebot visits since around 5am this morning - VERY unusual on my sites. I'm hoping it is not a sign that Google decided they no longer like my sites. Perhaps sign of them using the servers to power an update?

I check for certain things daily and I noticed earlier that the fresh tags were missing too.

I also noticed that for me "contains the term" ("+www.widgets.+com") number just jumped considerably. It had been pretty stable (for weeks) at around 450, but now showing over 600.

about a week ago my sites started getting fresh date tags every day (used to be every other)
Now , as you say, none.

I presumed something was happening or about to

I too can confirm an absence of fresh tags for a few days in the area I keep a close eye on.

i haven't seen them since sunday morn, but the date on Google's cache for my pages is still the eighteenth, for others much earlier.

Google has been all over my site for about the past week. I noticed a decrease in activity starting on Sunday, I figured it had gotten every page and an update was close.

Normally I would see continuing visits to pick up my home page, which changes daily. I still see those visits, but fresh tags are gone and my home page shows a date from last Friday. Normally, it would be showing yesterday (Monday - a one day lag).

Today I noticed that Googlebot is active again all over my site. Definately a deviation from what I had been seeing the past couple of months. Normally, my next big visit would follow about 10 days after an update.

yes, I also see them back.
Showing a 20-Sep for one of my pages, and this date corresponds to the cached page.
