I think I may have figured out part of the reason for the perception of content being a weak point.
As some of you already know (and some don't), I wrote an article recently and have been happily submitting it to the article sites, and for the first time last night, Yahoo! and Google Groups. Upon checking the results this morning, not one of the article links themselves had been indexed, although Google did index 8 pages that linked to the article.
I don't expect the Yahoo! and Google Groups submissions to be indexed by now, but I would expect that at least the ones that have been approved as well as the one on my own site would be indexed by now. It used to take less than 24 hours; now it's been 40.
(Yes, I know I'm impatient, but we're talking almost twice the time at this point.)
