and the weirdest thing that i saw is one of my fanpages that is ranked #1 on google shows me this error in description:
"A description for this result is not available because of this site's robots.txt ? learn more."

I'm seeing less and less eCommerce sites with each of these disgusting and downright evil updates than ever before..... Guys it is obvious this update is the amazon black Friday update to temporary wreck all eCommerce sites apart from amazon for black Friday...... and this isnt a far fetched idea one bit!

Lol... Soon there won't be a "search engine" as such. They'll just start removing anything which isn't affiliated until every search returns Amazon and Yelp.

That number changes all the time and it isn't highly significant.

Update: It seems as though it's still happening. Lots of keywords are dropping again and others going up, then dropping within a few hours. I'm not sure what is happening at all, but it seems special. Meanwhile one of my "white hat" sites has gone from 6 keywords #1 to 17 keywords #1, pretty much all within the last 3 days. I put "white hat" in quotes for a reason, before you derail the thread to a KKK hunt. My uneducated guess is they fucked up with the initial release on Penguin, so this is the 3.1 release.
Anyone seen their keywords jump up and stick?

I'm 100% with you - this is a rollout that's not finished yet. And I would also agree that it's, at least in part, a Penguin 3.0 rollback. I've checked several sites that were hit by 3.0, and each of them, after this update, have significantly shot up in rankings.
When connecting to Google.com.au via Hide-my-ass, and via any US based node on my secure VPN, I'm seeing a very different set of search results to those that are visible in Australia. That to me indicates that it is indeed an update, and it's still rolling out.
Interestingly (but not surprisingly) mozcast isn't really detecting this - however, Algoroo is showing pretty high volatility.
