This is so cool!

This is the latest Google upgrade...

"Google is undertaking the most radical change to its search results ever, introducing a "Universal Search" system that will blend listings from its news, video, images, local and book search engines among those it gathers from crawling web pages.

The new system officially rolls out today for anyone using Google.com and searching in English. Not everyone will see it at first, but over the course of the next several days, Universal Search should be more, well, universal. A new navigational interface has also been unveiled for Google..."

Google has been integrating blog and news pages into the main SERPs results for a couple of weeks now. I've managed to get a top 3 slot in around two hours for some content.. they've just been quiet about it. I guess they were still testing!

I do quite well on Google News, 6% of traffic this month came from there. It might be interesting to see what happens..

Did Google refer to this as Google 2.0? (I hope not)

Hmm one of my sites not in second place and a parking page where I should be, their site needs work. Good to see it's been invented though, but they need to do better.
