-you know how many datacenters google has
-you have "spidey sense" for everflux
-you have posted a "premature egooglation" thread (claiming the update has started when it really hasn't)
-you have spent any time asking, reading, or speculating on when the "it" would begin
-you have studied and constantly reference the full moon chart and dates that the update began.
Anyone care to fill in any that I missed?
I was bored.:)
YOU ask this kind of questions, r2d2? Are you also bored? Well, no, your site isn't doomed. And if you guys search a job where you don't have the time to get bored, sticky me! ;)

What is that 'dream' job? ;)
Depends on your skills ... watching the update and changes in positions of a couple of my sites? ;)

You mean like spending all my days on a forum learning the top do's and don't of SEO. Checking for google updates every 10 minutes, and checking competitors tactics for SERP positioning and if they are not trying to spamm SE to get better PR ... hummmm souds like something I've never done before ;)
....Brett and the admin/mods starting to combine the various update threads into one big one.
You know it's getting closer when.....
....Brett removes the various update threads from the recent posts.....
....People start to *see* changes in the SERPs......
....Yahoo see's a traffic spike but strangely few page views.....
You know it's happening when.....
....A thread on WW goes from 0 to 500 posts in less than 10 minutes.....
....The "Ive been banned from Google" threads begin.....
You know it's over when.....
...the "is my site banned?" threads begin.....
...the "my competitors are spamming and they're still number one" threads begin.....
...new users arrive on the forum, drawn in by the addictive paranoia of the rest of us.....
And then Google cycle is over....
....until next month!;)

- Whipping your head around anytime you hear the words 'it started'.
- You find youself applying algorithmic processes to everday events (This movie has to be good - box office gross times positive reviews divided by negative reviews plus line at the theatre multiplied by a great title - er name.......).
Have a look around via the "site search" link at the top of the page.

Not this Google [rienzihills.com], Andy. The other one - the one with the pigeons.
With my other post [webmasterworld.com] I'm definitely convinced i've lost the plot...
Time for a two-hour dose of 80s music to stop the pain :)
- canuck, *humming: "Barney Google, with the goo-goo-goo-ga-ly eyes."*
- You know the countdown to the update starts when you stop seeing fresh dates on the serps.
[I thought this over, and I need to know if i'm missing something ;)]
