I actually like a lot of the googlers I encounter, it's more a case of disliking the bs the company tries to push out, albeit with exceptional aplomb and delivery :) Hi Rob, ah a gr8 thread :) I think Goog has been a whole lot smarter, sometimes they come across all bright and fluffy – it must be working :) Certainly not a quality M$ ever displayed.

That said, the power that this one company has over the world is incredible and very dangerous. Why is it Microsoft get hit and yet Google are basically skipping merrily through a field of daisies in the sun while feeding lovely little bluebirds? Incidentally, does nobody think it's a touch ironic that paid links are exactly where Google made/make their $gazillions given their stance?

They work it's why people use them. @ EM - Not entirely sure as to what part of the post or comments you are addressing but generally speaking sure, it is how it is and it works. When it changes people will adapt and do the very same. The web is a commercial thing, some might say that Google profits disproportionately, others might say that it is right that money should dictate who does and who doesn't succeed. We do live in a capitalistic system afterall. Maybe our monopolistic megalith will change algorithmic tack and embark on a reverse policy, more links equal lower ranks :D The web turned upside down, that could be fun ;) @ Brandon – I believe it was penalised cos they knew I would rant about it :) I wrote a review and got paid for it, once.
