Sistrix used a metric of -66% for describing how badly eHow was hit.

Demand Media, the parent company of eHow, responded saying:

To me, this clearly shows eHow was hit globally by this update but Demand Media wants to downplay the roll it will have in terms of their traffic and thus dollars. Matt McGee at Search Engine Land has some more data on eHow.

Meanwhile, we did report some people saying they have seen incremental improvements with the latest update. So I do hope that was you.
