Google Bot Reading Javascript?

    For the first time, I'm noticing Google Bot entries in my private logging system, which suggests that it must be reading, or at least loading Javascript.

    Has there been a recent change in Google Bots Javascript smarts?

    It's not a problem, but it does mean I have to skip over bot traffic to walk through my human traffic, and with 1,000,000 pages, that's not trival.

    Google bot reads javascript upto a certain extend now.

    B'cos the analytics javascript code is executed by the Google bot and shows them as visitors
