fading relevance of Google results?

I have been noticing this type of thing across the board… Google results are not up-to-date enough for my search needs, particularly when it has to do with something that is time-sensitive.

It appears to me that the amount of growth in dynamic content (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, Content Discussions, etc.) has caught up with Google? Static content is far less interesting today than dynamic content.

Here are the results from a recent search I did to figure out what GMail’s attachment maximum was, check out the first few results… to be fair, I changed up the language and received slightly better results but the very first result in both cases was over 3 years old! (BTW: the current answer is 20MB although I suspect this too will change)
