Google listens, man, they really do listen. Not just to big powerful blogs but to this blog and to all blogs. And if you're right they will change. This happened one time before, years ago, I got on them, I don't even remember for what, some internal blogger thing, and whatever it was they changed it. The thinking in Mountain View is "Some guy's going off on us, what did we do? We did what? Well, that's a stupid rule, stop that."

Very unusual corporate behavior. Very good corporate behavior.
