Do you know if old G. Search API (before AJAX API) is still working or G. has been canceled that old Beta API all together?

It stopped working for some reason couple weeks ago but I’m not sure if we went over the allowed limit, or G. BL us or they just said bye bye to that Beta trial for good.

From what I've heard, they're letting people who got in keep their toys; ending the beta was supposed to be more about not giving out any new memberships. But then I haven't worked with their search api in more than a year, so I could be way off.

Yes Forrest, you’re right about stop giving API away about 1year ago.
The one that we used for 3 years work until couple weeks ago but now it stops working.
I don’t know if this is G. evil doing or our script got corrupted or whatever else.

Hmmm, I've tested a few sites that still use the old API and their still working, but they might be phasing them out slowly. Only time will tell, I would assume Google would announce this before they even would start to give webmasters time to adjust.
