The SEO community is abuzz with news of Google’s current (it’s still happening) update.

Dan Thies reports:

Yes, Google is updating, changing, shifting, call it anything you like but don’t call it dancing. So what’s happening? Search results are shifting around like mad, that’s what’s happening. What does it mean? I can’t tell you until it stops moving, which may take another couple weeks.

We’ve been watching this since about last Friday, and my phone has been ringing off the hook. Everyone who thinks I called the November 2003 update correctly is waiting for me to pull another rabbit out of my hat… I can’t promise a rabbit, but I will have an opinion once this thing settles down and we can look at what’s changed.

Matt Cutts has posted updates on the updates on his blog.

Personally, I’ve noticed that Google has updated simply by the fact that this site now has a page rank. Since the beginning, it’s been 0/10, but now it’s up to 4. Excellent!

Has anyone else noticed a change in your page rank or search engine standings?

Also, please drop me a comment if you experience a significant lag time in this site loading. It was slow for me this morning, as the ads were loading slowly. If this happens to you, let me know. It might be time to get rid of some ads!
