Default SERPS swinging all over the place

One of my sites is seeing some massive swings in the SERPS (see the red compared with one of my competitors)

Over the last 3 weeks, it bounces from position 15 or so, to 4/5. And it does this a few times a day. Ultimately I would like position 5 to stay, but I am a little confused that is jumps around so much. I've never really seen this much of a change, and for over a longer period of time.

I noticed that myself in the last few weeks but I think it depend on which Google server you are connecting.

Now I rank #1 5 min. later #3.
It's very weird but hope it will stabilise.

Um 'google dance' ended a long time ago.

Actually I think there is growing evidence that something is awry with Google. I think they may have had to roll-back data, or change something significant. Backlinks accumulated in the past few weeks may no longer be indexed and will have to be re-crawled.

Anyone else noticed that Googlebot has also died recently?

I agree with Richard, there definitely looks as if theres been a change at google. The serps for my keyword changes every 5 mins. One site that appears on Pg1 , is also on Pg 2 when I click the next page.
