#1 If a guy who got elected twice as president of the United States is synonym of failure where do they put say John "I was in Vietnam" Kerry or Howard Aaaaaarrrrrrgh Dean? Walking disasters?

#2 I cannot win. Yahoo is passing information to the ChiComms and Google is taking a dump on our CIC. What search engine should I use?

#5 Sigh. It's not Google Inc. doing this linkage, but losers manipulating the way Google ranks information.

See here for details: Google Bomb

#6 PS Make sure you read through their long list of examples. Some of them are pretty funny. "Miserable failure" in Italian points to Berlusconi's page

PPS Those of you who were here in The Year of Boris can probably guess that much of his vile venom on Fred's bandwidth was just a pathetic attempt to manipulate his own rankings on the Google search engine...

#11 Dang, I searched my name both on wikipedia and on fr.wikipedia : nothing, nothing!

I am asking to you, does one have to be an antisemitic serb with a bad hygiena and unsual sex habits to be featured in wikipedia!!!???
I'm french, so the bad hygiena and sex habits thingies are already part of the package deal, and, still, nothing!

Damn! I feel so insignificant!

Oh, and this "miserable failure" search topic was brought up a while ago by Zhang Fei IIRC, with the same Google bomb explanation. Myself I'd rather search for interracial gangbangs+strap-on fetish+golden shower, that's how I get all the geopolitical stuff and all.

#12 Google Bomb, yes, and if you DON'T hit the 'lucky' button, you'll see ol' lard-ass Mikey is #2. Don't blame the tool! Some folks have figgered out how to manipulate it for their own ends.

#15 Seafarious,
thanks for the clarity, I for one didn't know how that stuff works. It helps, as I do like using Google, but that type info isn't right.

#16 A lot of this was done in the run up to the 2004 election. In particular, the KOSsacks and the DUmmies spent a lot of time and effort Google Bombing and manipulating on-line polls. Fortunately for everyone else, it wasn't real effective.

#17 BTW, one of the early efforts in Google Bombing was against SCO - a company that's the bane of Open Source / Linux advocates. The campaign linked the phrase "litigious bastards" with SCO, at least for a while.

#18 Frank, that image is downright poetic. Of the Edgar Allen Poe strain. ;-)
