Google drops Home Page Count

Google has decided to drop the long-time count of pages it searches from its home page. It's the latest move in the Yahoo-Google dispute over size. Google says it is now three times bigger than its competitors and is the most comprehensive. Danny Sullivan said, "dropping the home page count is a positive move that I think helps defuse the entire size wars situation. That's because it divorces the notion of page counting as a way to "prove" comprehensiveness, a move long overdue for the industry to make."
