Google Dancing Alone?

www2, www3, www-ex, etc. not accessible?

I noticed today that you can't type in www2.google.com or any of the others to see different results anymore. Is this a new thing or did I miss it when they took it down?

It looks to me like Google may be Dancing and they don't want us to know or be able to watch?

I did a site:widget.com search on one of my sites the other day and now the results are different.

Anyone else notice anything strange going on? Hear dancing music in the background?

Thanks.

p.s. If I did miss it when they took away access to the other servers, I apologize. :)

-- welcome to webmasterworld --

www2 and www3 were redirected to www several weeks ago.

ya know, i think that might be my first welcome ;)

thanks!

also, i was thinking they may have changed it a long, long time ago, so if i didn't catch it two weeks ago, it's not as bad as i thought.

finally, what about the dancing? do you think she is?

I always see very little crawl activity just before an update. This is the case now.

I saw reduced crawling up until two days ago, now back to normal.

As far as SERPs: I've seen them flipping around for quite some time now, several weeks. Nothing major, just shuffling.
