The original comment is still valid: why is the drop in Bitcoin on the top page of HN, and the drop of GOOG not?

Probably because so many have been watching this closely. It's a very polarizing issue.

I hadn't realized google was falling hard, that's great news to me, and I wish it had been on the front page.

Could be google hiding from bad press here as they are wont to do.
