Google Shared stuff:

http://www.google.com/s2/sharing/stuff

gives a 404 Not Found error. Did Google take it down?

Down for me too, but it may be down since a while.

Nobody will notice. The "Share" widget from Google Video has been removed.

Well, I'm glad that's gone. Possibly the worst interface for a web app. Ever.

I noticed. I used that every day. Damn. I do not suspect an "upgrade" either, just a silent death. That sucks. I liked it much better that Share This or any othe other stuff.

I used this a ton, also. I hope they're just transitioning to a fuller-featured version (e.g., incorporating it into the Google Reader shared items function).

It's back up now. Anyone know what that was all about?

I think I found something new (but I'm not sure at 100%):
When you click on a domain from a shared stuff, you aren't direct to the domain itself any more, but to "top shared stuff from domain.com".
A digg-like to come?

Example: http://www.google.com/s2/sharing/stuff?lmode=global&domain=wikipedia.org
But I tried many sites, without any result from those domains...
