Definately getting different results on backward links for yahoo. www showing 657k and www2 and www3 showing 654k. Results for CNN are also different. Looks like the real deal.

[rfgdxm1]

I'm seeing it too! With total fear and dread I check to see if I am in the index. Whew, YES! HOLY MOTHER! #2 on 2 single important keywords at the moment. Looks like I slipped on position for another single keyword down page #1 though. Of course, by the end of the dance things may not be so good. However, looks like worst case scenarios like being dropped didn't happen.

[Monkscuba]

Yahoo! er.. I mean Gooooooogle!

The boss will be happy to see a jump and 32 more links!

[waynet]

Hey cool, my site is listed. How long does this dance actually last? I was only six hours off when I took a guess a week ago.

[PFOnline]

Same here rfgdxm1! Was very scared at first when i didnt see my page where it normally was for my sites main keyword(page 5)... went to page 4... yikes! didnt see it there either... was thinking either i got dropped, or my sites on page 3 or better! Went to page 3, bam there I am! AMAZING... IM HAPPY.... YAY....

Congrats rfgdxm1! I was scared too! (Was scared cause I recently added a 301 redirect, and heard this is what Google likes, but also heard this could be bad, but seems to be OK!)

Brett:
> Laz will verify

So, is the maestro confirmed? I'm surprised that GoogleGuy didn't win the mousemat.

[lazerzubb]

Yes it's the Update, but i am still mad at my boss, the good news though was that he revealed i will get a new boss :)
