http://www.google.com/insights/search/#q=bitcoin&date=today%201-m&cmpt=q (30 day chart)

The spike labelled "A" was the recent Reuters story.  Sure, the spike isn't comparatively huge but traffic didn't fade away immediately over the week.  That's definitely a bullish signal and given that it takes a week or so to get set up with mtgox/dwolla this week looks to be good.
Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

1.  That spike is big... from 50 to 100 is double the search volume and it appears to be settling around 80, which is still up 60%.
2.  Insights is a horrible indicator except as confirmation.  It is delayed several days.
