Over the last 36 hours or so, I am getting requests for pages from Google visitors that were removed 4/5 months ago against 2/3 months up til now.
Whilst some recent pages are available via freshbot, it seems the bulk of the results are slipping backwards in time - whatever the intention of the algo changes, I am sure this wasn't it!

Hi, The same here, my index page of January is back up and also in the cache. I have seen my index-page of March for 1 week. Then the one of January again. Then suddenly last week my index-page of April showed for about 5 days. Now it is again the index-page of January that shows up and is in the cache. The war with Irak has not happened yet! I'ts like Orson Wells Time-Machine.
regards, Sanuk

Google cache of my homepage is from June 2nd 2003 - obviously from Mr (Ms?) Freshbot.

Old , unwanted pages popping up in SERPS is another unpleasent effect of the recent backdate.
