Essentially, (from what I'm understanding), is that Google is paying closer attention to the keywords in the search phrase. For example, (taken from the Register UK article) you type in: "butter vs olive oil" and you'll come up with a comparison of cholesterol, calories, and such. Does this help you?

Google suggested that the "Hummingbird" update rolled out about a month earlier. Our best guess ties it to a MozCast spike on August 20th and many reports of flux from August 20-22. Hummingbird has been compared to Caffeine, and seems to be a core algorithm update that may power changes to semantic search and the Knowledge Graph for months to come. @moz
