The last core update was released in March this year.

Google's Danny Sullivan said the update was not anything special or particuarly big, but they wanted to be proactive in communicating ahead of the release. 

Regular update.

It's unusual for Google to give prior notifications, but a welcome development and it curtails the usual "have they-haven't they" speculation as people try to work out what's happening with changes seen.

Keep an eye out for changes today and we'll also keep you updated on the Wordtracker blog as information about the nature of the update emerges.
