I wonder if anyone else has noticed that Google is slowing down big time. I don't mean in terms of the response time for a search, but in terms of how fast it is updating with new data.

Obviously some ("important") sites get updated quickly in Google, while others later, but it seems in general that their search for/on sites is no where near as quick as it used to be.

I used to get alerts for things within a half hour of items being posted. Now I get it 3 days later.

Has the Internet become too wide and too slow? Have Google's servers and network hit a wall/ceiling?

Will this make the news, and is it news at all?
