Richard — It appears the big news is here:

I agree that it’s unlikely anyone (including Cuil) will unthrone Google, this certainly is a big move.

[...] response to this where they claim that this is all about to change. Not sure if Arlington is just messing with people, but it will be interesting to see what this is all about [...]

Hype/Spin? I think anyone reading the article from TechCrunch felt the same exact thing.

Arrington is KNOWN for breaking news and SPECIFICALLY SAYS to check back the following week. AND he says the announcements timing was strategic.

Sure… Google is king and whatever announcement is made next week won’t affect that. But, Richard, your ignorance to think nothing can change that within 5-7 years is the same reason that mobile phone carriers are watching Apple and Android about to dominate THEM.

Don’t be so shortsighted…

Dude, you’re reading too much into that article. The jist was meant to convey the ever-changing nature of the Internet, specifically the uber-competitive niche that is SEO.

It may say that someone else besides Google would be king someday, but next week? Who? Yahoo! is a distant second place. Everyone else is out of the race, imo.

BUT dude, you gotta know… NO ONE is going to oust Google from the top spot. Not next week, anyway. Maybe in 5-7 years, out past the horizon of predictability… but for near term, Google has ALL of Internet in the bag.

So it looks like your post is more designed to get readers to your site. Hype? Spin? What? Bah…

Google is king. There is no “big news.”
