It hasn’t propagated my datacenter yet, but Eric Blackwell shot me an IM and gave me some updates on some of our newer sites.

Here’s what Matt Cutts had to say:

I just commented on a blog about the subject, but didn’t have the complete data.  I ran it, and was surprised to see that people are searching for roost as much as trulia.  ***edit*** roost is an actual word…that’s why it’s searched

This news is a couple of days old, but it’s very pertinent.  I spent about an hour last night cross referencing what the Adwords Keyword Selector reported vs. what I have personally seen in traffic from ranking sites.  The data looks strong to quite strong.

I’m really loving this…Overture was okay and free, and then went down.  Wordtracker is okay and costs, but for the last year was really our only option.  The new Google data looks like it’s way better than either of those options, and free.

Alright, I’m relatively new to woot, so forgive me if this has been done before.  This item is awesome.  I only wish that I’d had a chance to buy it before it was sold out.

Title pretty much sums it up.  I checked http://seattleweekly.trulia.com/WA/Seattle/ for the user agent cloak, and it’s no longer there.  I checked for an IP cloak using the Google translator, and didn’t see one.  If they are using a good IP cloak, we wouldn’t be able to see it on the translator.  There is a possibility that they still have an IP cloak up, but it would take some time & resources to check for it.  If I get bored, I might do so.
