It could be a black PR effort of a competing company. Remember Scroogled? That, but a bit more subtle.

Could be, but unfortunately, this isn't an entirely unreasonable question regardless. Given Google's track record, I would be very hesitant to integrate new APIs right after launch.

I completely agree with you, but there is a kernel of truth to what they say. I would be apprehensive about using this API for anything serious.
