I don’t know why, or how, but something very odd has happened in the last 24hrs concerning a post a made last week about Cuil and the spamming of web page input forms
All the cached pages of that post, which were in Google have disappeared

The day after I made the post, I spoke with friends and pointed out that it was already the top result for a search in google UK on the words ‘Cuil Spam’ and it was like that for a few days, they did the same search as me, and saw the post in the results.
Then suddenly, all reference to the blog post I made for Cuil Spamming Webpage forms pages have disappeared from Googles website, yet every other post from the last few years, right through to yesterday which I have made on this blog still exists in Googles cache.
Its as if someone at Google is covering up the Cuil Spam websites story, by deleting all reference to it from the Google cache.
I can think of no other reason for the cache cleansing than some person or policy at Google aimed at cleaning the Cuil search results of certain reported problems (or hacks) on behalf of the Cuil websites, ex Google employees.
A Cuil Google Conspiracy, or old pals act to get certain Cuil stories removed from Google ?

PS..
A Few minutes after posting this, I checked Google, and this post was top result for the search term ‘Cuil Spam‘
Here’s the screen shot of that, this time if the cache gets cleaned, at least I will have a photo to prove it.
