Google instant site indexing ..almost

It seems from Matt Cutts official Google blog that Google’s index is getting fresher and fresher. No more waiting trembling with fear for 3 months to find out what the next Google Dance will do to your search engine rankings.. Matt Cutts writes that "Now some documents can show up in minutes instead of hours or days"

The example he gives relates to blog postings and I have to wonder if this applies equally to all blogging formats or just blogger blogs?

This rapid indexing does open up an opportunity - if Google is indexing content almost immeduiatly, it means website owners have chance to rank prominently for important key words and phrases faster than ever before.

To deter spammers using this as another way to fool Google it seems thatthe bloggers being indexed instantly are longstanding bloggs which also tick the other boxes of the Google algorithms.
