Something interesting on Google

[architect359]

I did a quick search to see if anyone posted this but didn't see any. Sorry in any case if it is a dupe. (Mods delete if this is the case).

Anyhow, head over to Google's main search page and type in "Failure" - than hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button and see where they take you.

7. How does that work?

The google bomb? For example, I added a link today to my blog calling Shrub a failure and then linking to that google search. Is that a way to properly use the google bomb?

11. Nutshell explanation...

If a human uses one or two words to describe a link, then the google algotrithms put more weight behind that phrase than the text in the document. It turns out to be statistically more reliable than trusting words in the document, because someone other than the author attributed those words to it.

I posted an example in this thread.

6. Once I stopped Laughing

That is really funny, I can't stop laughing about that.

And what makes it funnier is that it is so true.

Also do that same search in Yahoo brings it up as the third result.

It is also the first result in Dogpile too.
