It's not a mystery. Google is a big company with a HUGE research budget. They also do a lot of production testing.

So this was the big news !! ?
They will make lots of more money by adding one more sponsered results up there.
People won't see that those links are sponsered results, because of the simple fact that people don´t read and just start clicking right away.
That´s also one of the reason why the publisher text links work so well.

Seach Engine Optimization
http://search-engines-web.com/seo-seo.html
The term Search Engine Optimization is probably the most professionally optimized term on Google
So - the drops and additions - may indicated which TATICS are currently working in ALGOs
COMPARE THE SERPS from a year and one half ago - with the posts above
interesting to compare which professional SEOs have disappeared and climbed Google in that time!

That's what happens when stockholders start calling the shots. Eventually you negate everything that made it so attractive to begin with.

I doubt many people notice the number of sponsored links. I do think, however, that the continued commercialization of Google will hurt it in the long run. But as they are right now, they are less commercialized than most other places on the web - Yahoo!, MSN, etc.
